Review: Great product for great price with 2 in 1 device - This review is long and please be patient with me. I am a professional technician with almost 20 years of experience. This device impressed me when I opened the box. There 4 parts: device, OBD II cable, battery tester cable, and USB cable for the update. It works like a champ when came out of a bag. These are 2 devices in 1 unit: an OBD II scanner and a battery tester. There is no internal battery in it. It was powered by a vehicle battery to turn it on. First is scanner: scanner works like every OBD II global scanner with Read codes, clear code, monitors readiness, live data, graphing data... and it is very fast responding but no testing available. Second is the battery tester: this tester is very accurate so far. I had a customer come to our shop with concern about dragging start, the vehicle still starts every time but she said feels like a hiccup before it starts. I put this tester on her battery and did the test. the result shows need a new battery even her battery voltage shows 12.80V but the amperage isn't enough causing the dragging start. Then I test a new stock battery on the shelf it shows "Good battery" even though its voltage was lower than her battery. if you notice on the device: Red LED means "need replace battery" Green means "Good battery" and I think Orange means "charge retest". I used this device for 3 days in a busy shop, and all my technicians and lube techs love it. I think Topdon had been listening to all reviews from people who used BT100 and they did some improvements: longer battery tester cable, the cable attached to clamps had been secured by a metal clip, preventing the cable from breaking off like BT100, and when you hold the up and down to select CCA, the number didn't jump to hundred like BT100 instead jump every 5 unit. However, I think Topdon can make it better if they use Bluetooth for OBD II. Switching from OBD II to battery tester cable is OK for DIYers but for technicians is annoying and chance to damage the device when you switch 100 times a day. The conclusion: Pros: fast OBD II scanner, accurate battery tester, affordable price Cons: (actually not more like a recommendation) annoy me when switching from cable to cable, hopefully Bluetooth device for OBDII with be improved on a later device. Hope this review helps someone out there looking for 2 in 1 device that won't break the bank. I will follow up and update this after couple months to use this device to see how it stands up in a rough environment. Review: Quick, Accurate, and Easy to use - What a quick and easy scanner to grab and go get that data. Instead of grabbing the big scanner that takes awhile to boot up, I was able to get on the road and get O2 Sensor data in seconds and graph it out to see how the Catalytic Convertor was functioning. Easy to read screen which is important for me. Topdon has made a quality product here that is usually my first grab for a quick diagnosis in a small easy to hold handheld tool. It reads mode 6 data and can do a few special tests on most supported vehicles. The scanner also comes with another plug in cord to check batteries. This is so handy. Got to check those batteries every time a vehicle comes in. Don't want our customer to get stuck needing a jump. I compared the battery tester to a Midtronics and had identical results. Printing function could be easier to use with more Printer drivers. Memory in unit will provide a lookup even after the tool is disconnected. Forgot your code? It is stored in memory in this tool. I have made this my quick and easy go to for quick diagnosis. I will update again after a few months of use. ## Features - OBD2 Scanner & Battery Tester: The AL500B is a 2-in-1 tool that works as an OBD2 code reader and battery tester.
