I've had the hook for years now, and do a lot of electrical diagnostics, it's been amazing! Being able to supply PWMs, REF.v, real-time amperage readouts, and the hot shot circuit check has been surprisingly good
I have the Power Probe 3 & I just learned more from you in the first 5 minutes then I ever knew before. Great Video. Really enjoyed 🍻👍
Probe III...Still dunno how to use it but it looks good in my tool box and I have a sticker...
Ha. That's the spirit. 👍😁
I bought an original Powerprobe about 20-ish years ago. At the time, a game changer for diagnosing 12v circuits. Recently I took it out of the bag to do some work and it was dead. I was sad. I went shopping for another. I had no idea how advanced these had gotten. I shopped and decided on a PP3. The price, combined with what I need for, made it perfect for me. It's already paid for itself. I wish I had need for a Hook. Can't justify it since I'm no longer in the business.
Down to earth no BS descriptions. Best I have ever seen. Well done !
Love my hook, it paid for itself in the first week. We had a power supply issue on a class 7 truck transmission computer .
This has been the most excellent video imaginable in terms of actually understanding the tool. So many videos are filled with fluff that was absent here. It was a true joy to listen to the explanations beginning to end. It was a surprise to find the probe was NOT A FOX AND HOUND. You actually have to get the ECM kit for that. Someday fox and hound will be built in. For now, you get a diagnostic probe. Just a great vid and wonderful explanation. It's probably a good idea to listen to this twice.
Nice comparison so people can decide what they need. One would think these companies would make videos like this to help sell their products. It always is a battle to compare different models. Thanks.
OG ... Power probe 1 .... It's still going strong 💪 4 me ... Old skool mechanic
I'm a three. Only had it for a month or so, and have only used it for powering stuff for testing and for continuity testing. Love it!
I wish you guys would have a class on how to use it. It would help me out a lot . I love it I’ve got a power probe three
Power Probe has some use videos.
Great rundown on the newer (at least to me, anyway) power probes. I still just have my trusty PP3 that has served me well for many years, but was wondering what the newer models had to offer. I've been out of the mechanic field due to a bad leg injury, and related health issues, but I still tinker on my and my friend's cars. I was looking to upgrade my PP3, and wanted to make sure that I'm getting the most bang for my buck. I'm on disability so money is very tight. Your video was very helpful. I like to tinker and help my friends out because it makes me still feel useful. LOL!
I absolutely love my power probe 4 master kit love it more then the first 3 power probes
I was looking to buy the power probe 4 now I know yes I want one. Thanks
The 4 is one of my favs
i actually picked up a pp3 today seems nice and simple we have a hook at work its handy for sure.
Powerprobe is the best!!!!!
I love my power probe 4 wish i had the master kit but still the power probe 4 standalone is awesome, i will say the 4 isnt for people who arent doing advanced diag, if your just getting started in diagnosis and getting into more midlevel diag then a 3 is really all you need
Can u do a video on how to use it
Excellent takes the Guess Work out. Buy what you need.
The hook relay tester feature is nice
great details! thanks. going with a 4.
PP3, use it mostly for powers and grounds check.
#3 all u need...rest 2 much bs...buy the 5v test thing and can shoot 5v for power for sensors. #3 all u need... rest use dmm or scope or scanner
I'm sure if you wear the wiring out on the Power Probe they'll replace it for a little to nothing at all especially once you mentioned that they make the multi probe for Snap-on. I'm kind of like you JRC I have the three four the hook the multi probe and I think I have another three that I accidentally ordered
hook can load test circuits and pp4 can in feed test mode, other probes don't
The hook can supply from .5 to 5volts for computer testing
The power probe does work with the ect3000 I have the power probe 4 master kit it came with the ect3000 kit
Have to say it's hard for me not to grab the snap - on multi probe right now but love the hook and my pp 3. Thinking of picking up the ECT 3000 would like a tools in action about it
PPKIT04 Master Kit here. Unfortunately, the ground out has stopped working. Along with the green LED. Other than that, it is awesome.
Have you checked the switch? Sounds like the switch may be bad and it’s user replaceable. Just pry up on the sides of it and it pops right out.
What's with these mechanics with tools that all look brand new? Any tool of mine that wasn't black when it was new - it is now.
Great video, was wondering the difference between models. I think it's time for them to make a v2 Hook and add a full color screen that the 3&4 have, much easier to read.
Love to see a hook version 2
Great video. I have the power probe 4 great tool
So the hook is a all in one tool sorta and can eliminate the lisle relay test kit with all the adapters right? That sure is an awesome tool that I like more n more as I see it being used.
SOMEONE HAS PP3 WITH GOLD LEAD FOR 70 BUCKS , AND THE HOOK WITH THE BIG BLACK CASE SET , WHEN OPENED , THERE IS A LARGE CLEAR PLASTIC SHEET THAT PROTECTS CONTENTS FOR 120 , I GUESS THESE ARE GREAT DEALS RIGHT , SO IS THE HOOK ABOUT THE BEST THEY HAVE ? I HAVE A GOLD EDITION ECT 2000 , ,WILL THE PP3 AND THE HOOK RECIEVE THE ECT SIGNALS ?
The PP3 rocker switch in the new ones can be replaced. Just look for the slots on each side of it...Pops right out...
Lets see some load pro test leads =)
Thank you for the video. Has answered a lot of questions. Many thanks.
The power prob 3 I own I cut the clip off the ground cable and soldered a 4mm black banana plug to it so I can use anything I want and any length to ground it. Pretty easy and sweet mod. Kinda like the pp4
Good idea👍
need to do that thanks. my 3 is a good tool .
Great informative video on all the different power probes you got bro
Good video,have the power probe 4.Love it.
is the hook worth getting over the 4?
Can I check continuity with pp4?
I just buy the power probe IV I been trying to use with the ECT3000 and I can’t make it work not sure what the problem is I’m still trying to figure it out
Nice tool..Well said SIR..Thanks
Nice review. Thanks for the info
The only one that is worth your time and money is pp3. Build quality and functionality
I'D take the hook over any of the other power probe ones any day of the week. It does everything the others do and then some. IF you need one tool to do it all that can handle a steady 25 amp load and 65 amp load for 8 seconds this is the tool for you. Power probe just keeps improving upon themselves.
Power Probe has did so well with the tool that snap on has power probe make the multi probe tool for them under contract.
I'm sure we'll see something new such as the power probe with built in 5volt reference adapter sold separately for the power probe now so you dobt accidentally take out the ECM or sensitive electrical components.
Main reason I have so many is probably like most mechanics, I get a new one each time they come out thinking they're going to wow me.
Maybe Power Probe should have a upgrade or trade up program based on the condition of the one you exchange as they can reuse the parts or even donate the omdee one's to countries where people are wanting to learn this tech but can't quite afford the tools. We see people from all over the world and some in poor nations that want to better themselves. What better way than for Power Probe or another auto industry company than to donate to them.
You should check out the power probe maestro
JAERepair why's that is it even better then the hook?
neither of them does resistance testing better than the load pro..FACTS
I would not buy PP3 again. The ground connector is only an alligator clip. Can’t use it to apply power to a component with a small female connector
I have the HOOK 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🔊
Where has the HOOK gone? Do they still make it?
Great video for those guys out there looking for the power probe, he touched on some great features and just like you I’ve got every single one of them LOL
Can you send power to the vehicle with the vehicle not being on without key in the on position
3 an 4
Can do a video on the ez3
Very informative man. I thank you!
Thanks for the great info. I really do appreciate your efforts. 1,000 thumbs up.
Hi JRC54 I'm new in this industry I would love to have the pro 4 or Power Probe Hook.as part of my Tool Box.
Thanks for the demonstrations...
Great!
Are you doing one one the maestro power probe?
i just got a pb4. so if i set it to frequency counter and connect the tip and aux ground to the speaker wires it will play music through the power probe?
PPIII, anything deeper pull out the DVOM or Scope.
Awesome review of each and very helpful!
Excellent review , I have the 3 , after seeing this I think I'll be getting the hook
My power probe 3 paid for itself the first hour I had it.
Make sure that you cover your ASP. I was trying to figure it out! Bingo
Hey bro, this would be my first comment, I don't ever get on here, but you did a really good job on this video,., peace
I have the power probe 3 , and didn't know about all the range presets. I need to check what mine is on.Maybe that's why it sounding so raspy and dirty testing power and grounds of fuses on a running vehicle?
i have the power probe 3s and it has been the best 100.00 i have every dropped on a tool i deal with a lot of mower trailer repairs being a small engine lawn mower repair person do you see a person needing the add on kit PPLS01 on the power probe 3s
I own the 3, powersport probing and testing
How do these compare to the Maestro and EECT900?
Where do I get parts
Excelente tu video amigo preg do de puedo comprar el HOOK PAWER PROBÉ DONDE LO VENDEN DIRECCIÓN TELÉFONO ETC GRACIAS POR TU AYUDA ORIENTACIÓN
Nice video, very good. Please tell us, at this point do you know if the power probe maestro can be linked to ECT 2000 or 3000?
I work for a VOLVO Truck dealer and we have a lot circuit open problems on complicated to reach cable looms. I am after a version of power probe with open wire finder capabilities, using the power probe as a receiver I mean. Thanks again
Are all those plug-in things interchangeable and really be nice to have some extra length on my snap on but I got the core of this one that hooks to my cell phone that’s kind of been my go to lately
Good video.
I have the Hook and the 3. My biggest issue with the hook is that when you are testing a circuit the display seems to have a bit of a lag before it registers. I find this a little frustrating when you are running through fuses quickly. The 3 registers instantaneously. Other than that, the hook is a great tool. I'm wondering if anyone else has experienced the slight delay with the hook, or am I imagining things?
Yes I noticed it lags too. The guy at tech support said it's because it has the smart tip technology, it has to register the circuit before it shows the reading
You can switch to either a straight voltmeter or ohmmeter function and bypass the smart tip function and don't have the delay. It depends on what you're looking for.
@@cbmech2563 learn the machine first ///
@@CJ.A-C I have. If you are looking for both volts and ohms then you accept the delay if you are just looking for voltage or ohms you switch to either voltmeter or ohmmeter, like I said, depends on what you are looking for. I've had mine since 2015 and it has saved me from so much work and headaches.
I just learned new features "and things like that"
as always thanks for the great info
I can’t find one anywhere
How's the warranty?
One small correction
The hook does not have fuel injector testing mode.....
That’s only on on the PPIV..... and first effective diagnostic use of that feature means the tool has paid for itself right there......
For the auto guys and auto DIYers that feature alone is worth it let alone all the other stuff given one injector can cost 300 bucks and there’s 8 of them......
So cool
By boss has owned all versions of power probes. Instead of the hook he opted for snap on's version. Im getting ready to pick up the power probe maestro. Looks like a pp4 but with blue tooth, graphing and their own version of an incorporated troubleshooting support.
considering they are all made by powerprobe if you want the detached part that is how you end up getting the snap on 😂 but you don't have a choice but at least they are all powerprobe no matter what the impression on the plastic 🤔 but it was a lot better than the way everyone was doing it for it previous 100+ years and not a lot of tools that you see the biggest brand of the professional tech and I have mac and honestly its a lot of people using gearwrench without a problem and they're made over seas and lifetime warranty and advance is open to 9 pm and you don't have to wait for the next time truck shows up i have both but I would get the gearwrench set and they're u to like 30 mm and 20 + inches long so they are ready for battle but the snap on is made by powerprobe
Does any of them read and display negative voltage? And can you send both positive and negative voltage to the tip? Sometimes when testing window motors I need to reverse the polarity to either go up or down.
Good video Bro
Thanks
Nice just order 3ez thank you maybe get the last laser thank you class dismiss! Good job
Power probe 4 does not work with the 2000
What about the Mastro? I own the PP3 master kit & the PP4. I want the hook, the PP3 EZ & the Mastro.
I think the Mastro comes out in June or July
What one do you recommend for a first power probe and I am a diesel tech if that matters. And can you adjust how munch volts you send to stuff
Alot of stuff we have are like 5 volt sensors
@@calvinpettet8007 There is a 5 volt step down adapter that goes between the tip and body, the 4mm banana jack.
Mike thanks so munch
Very nice comparison!
I was thinking about getting a used Snap-On Multi Probe on EBay. Your thoughts? Thanks, Tom
I'd like to have the pp4 and maybe now the hook, I feel like the regular 3 that if you don't have a whole lot of options for tools that you should just get the 4 or even the hook. It all kinda depends on what you wanna use the tool for whether you want just a simple test light tool or the more advanced pp4 to check fuel injectors. I almost sprung for the ect3000 but im gonna wait a bit longer. Great video lots of information that not even the manufactures provide.
Great video. Which one is your favorite
Pp4
Havent used Power Probe The Hook
👍
Can anybody be specific ---on where I can get the Power Probe ?????
I don't want a cheap or knockoff ---PP
EERRRGH.
Real world
you did no testing,but ok everybody gotta eat an stuff
So which is the best?
Pp4
hook pricless .its like my third arm
I'm a small engine technician. Which one would you recommend?
PP4
Thanks man!
Buddy can I check continuity with the pp4?
good info, wow u own the whole line....I'm using cheap knock off. One day I'll get a power probe. if you ever wanna pass on one? To an inspired wanna be like you, who owns, runs your own shop! I put it to good use. Watched heaps off your vids for tips and if I can be half as successful as you id be a very happy man!
So there's a new version coming soon? Oh thanks for the video it was awesome
