PicoScope 4225A 2ch Starter kit 

The fifth star missing is because there is no signal generator. I purchased a 2204A just for the signal generator. Otherwise excellent and great forum/support. Highly recommended.

Excelente oscilloscope. I hace worked in the automotive diagnosis with others oscilloscope’s brands, but the truth is, there in no comparison. Picoscope is by far, the best. For its easy of use, its accuracy, for the support of its library. In conclusión, the   Picoscope 4425 2-Chanel automotive oscilloscope is a first class product.

The Pico 4425 was my first scope.  It was more than I wanted to spend to start with, but it was worth every penny.  I don’t know which is best, their product or their support. Doesn’t really matter cause you get both for the same price.  Thank you Pico.

I knew the basics from using the Snap on Vantage 2-channel scope. I decided that if i’m serious about being the best i can be i needed a better scope so went for the best i could afford and practice all i can. still very much a novice but soaking up all the info i can. i cant fault the equipment its so easy a novice can intuitively learn as they go. Now i have to save to invest in WPS500X. Thank you PICO for making the tools for me to excell.

Undoubtedly the best tool in the toolbox, I don’t know how I managed before getting my scope the benefits are endless along with the options, I now feel like I can fix anything. even the backup is unbeatable….....

This is the most powerful piece of automotive equipment that I have ever used !  I purchased my pico scope in 2016 but just started using my scope everyday within the last 6 months. If you want a scope to help get to the root cause of your automotive problems this is it! Having the ability to save data,  you can verify your repairs and show your customers before and after data to prove that you have indeed repaired their vehicles, worth the money and would highly recommend purchasing .

Worked as a vehicle technician for over 25 years using main dealer diagnostic tooling, but had never used an oscilloscope. Picoscope Automotive Software is so well laid out that getting to grips with diagnostics is made a lot easier. The built in automotive tests are fantastic and guides you through the connections required and automatically sets the amplitude of the signal and time base required for the test. The support from Picoscope is also top rate, I attend a Picoscope Road Show last year and the staff couldn’t do enough for you. Another reason I picked Picoscope is because their a British firm and getting additional equipment can be with you the following day.  Don’t forget to check out YouTube for free additional training! Picoscope, Scanner Danner and EricO.

2-Channel Starter Kit

Prior to my retirement in 2015, I visioned going into diagnostics (after 26 years of working with Chrysler and having a mechanics license since 1991) among the equipment I had to get hold of was an Oscilloscope. I did my diligence and concluded that PICO was the way to go…I was glad I did the right decision. I am continously learning and it seems that Pico keep on raising its level of standard; after sales service is excellent, information dessimination is amazing via forum, among others, is amazing. I would 100% recommend this product. I just hope Toronto, Canada be included in its yearly tech conferences.

We all love the picoscope here. \We already had the COP probe and amp clamps, so the starter kit works for us. We are taking the NAPA training and looking forward to the May session of wave form analysis.. We found a Snap an old Councillor 2 with boom and stripped it down, retrofitting the Pico with its gear and a nice big laptop. It is a great fit to a well equipped shop that loves to diagnose modern day vehicles. The Pico scope is a welcome addition. Cant believe we lived with out it so long..  No one picks up the Snap non scope anymore…

AWESOME - that’s for sure.
Consinder spending a bit extra and buy a 4 channel kit.
You’ll sometimes be stuck and you are not able to see what you want to see, because you miss one or two channels.

Andrew Kucek
2-Channel Starter Kit

I am new to Picoscope, so my experience with this product is limited. Having said that, I find this product amazing. The level of detail in the waveforms is incredible; no more guessing. Every video and review about this product, from its operation to customer service is 5 stars. The kit is well thought out, and complete. The computer program, with its probe recognition and scaling is top shelf. The free updates means I have the support of Picoscope, and will always have the latest technology. I feel I have purchased the best product on the market.

Alex from New Zealand
2-Channel Starter Kit

I’ve been using this for automotive diagnostics, the hardware is excellent but do have issues with software.
I was drawn to this product as they do provide regular free updates but this is what I’ve found.

Pico Diagnostics is simply not reliable, You can repeat test like cylinder balance or relative compression and the results are not consistent

Picoscope Automotive basics is excellent, over the 10+years I’ve owned a Pico, new features have been added but some software versions is not stable and crashes, also found some new features buggy and later removed rather than fixed - what’s going on here???

Pawel
2-Channel Starter Kit

In Poland not many people know what is the pico and what does it can. I bought it because I want to be really good car specialist and I want to be able to see much more then typical diagnostic tester or multimeter can show me. I want to diagnose many difficult faults, that are in many cases not possible to find without sophisticated scope like pico. The most important for me is the free pico software where is updated constantly. Can and lin protocols decoding features shows me that Pico is developing himself and wants to be on time with the technology. Pico it’s my best investition.

This Picoscope is awesome. still considered a new user. I have used other scopes before. None of them were as easy to use as Pico. I have saved a ton of money with mine since acquiring it. Instead of guessing and replacing. Now i am sure that something will fix it. It is such a piece of mind knowing instead of guessing.

Arjen
2-Channel Starter Kit

Whe upgraded from the Pico 4423 to the 4425. Both are perfect scopes.
The great points of the Pico scopes:
- Fast and easy set up.
- Measuring speed.
- Creating your own probes or measuring channels.
- Good service, the guy’s at Pico are always willing to help with diagnosing problem cars.

Whe have more scopes, but non of them come close to the performance of the Pico.

Cristian Todeschini
2-Channel Starter Kit

I arrive from Bosch school and i worked with your products, but for me, now Pico is highter than Bosch, so I think that Pico has many strengths , portable case, high bandwidth, lot of accesory (NVH, WPS etc..) , amazing software with hundreds of functions… but especially, for me, is the mentality and the passion for research and development, qualities that have brought innovations such as : the free software to date, the vaweforms of the reference and the library… all this with little cost ... thanks for your job.
For me there is only one small defect, I would improve the USB and BNC connectors, if Pico is used as a portable oscilloscope remains a little weak.

My best investment in the workshop.
It is not only a tool, updates, support and ACCESS TO THE LIBRARY are very valuable information for starters as well as experts. And for FREE.

My PicoScope is undoubtedly the best tool I own. So many uses you wouldn’t think possible. Keep up the good work guys.

Steve Ashcroft
4-Channel Standard Kit

Absolutley brilliant. Well worth saving for and getting what is renown as THE BEST! The guided drop down section is fantastic for helping get the right connections for the test being done and to get the scope settings right. This kit has made me hungry for more information and diagnostic experience.  It even came in handy at home on a boiler failure. I tested the modulated gas valve and the flame failure device. So it even got me brownie points from Her In Doors, can’t say any better than that!

Just to add, the test lead arrangements with the “banana” type plugs are dead good,with the advantage of a really good connection with croc clips and even dedicated back probing pins that fit on the end of the actually lead (no need for croc clips onto pins)

Nishul Arora
PicoScope 4225 2-Channel Automotive Oscilloscope

First of, I want to say that I am not an auto technician by trade. Being an enthusiast, it was a really hard decision for me to justify the money needed to buy a picoscope. I bought one anyway, because I thought it can be a really cool toy to play with. As of yet, I have used the picoscope to look at the waveforms on my car (have not really diagnosed anything). It was very easy to use, and setup. To my surprise, I am using the picoscope the most to calibrate pressure sensors for my PhD research. The size factor of the picoscope and its ability to take power from my laptop, made it an o-scope of my choice. The other o-scope I have is bulky and more tedious to setup.

Bottomline - I don’t regret even a single bit that I invested in picoscope. My only regret is that I don’t have enough time to use it on more automotive applications.

Thanks,
Nishul

Moved on from my Modis to picoscope and never looking back.Brilliant functionality along with features and option that make it easy to implement unusual or different diagnostic techniques

4 channel review for 3424 and 4423 auto scope kit. I made the transition from a Snap On Verus to the Pico. I no longer own a functioning scope it blow up due a lighting strike love to own the new 4425 kit one day. There is no other scope that compares to the detail and simplicity you get with Pico. The training and information others share is exploding. Users are eager to share their experience and knowledge. This scope is a step ahead it adapts with technology. Love to own it again one day. Whether a beginner or advanced user you are always learning. Thanks for the opportunity to write this review. Hope it helps others.

4-Channel Diesel Kit

Please note this review is for the 4423 Commercial Vehicle Kit that I ordered from Autonerdz.  This scope is awesome!  You can zoom in with such clarity to look at waveforms it is unbelievable.  Plus all the features you can use with the scope such as Math Channels, Reference waveforms, different scope views.  The main thing I like about this scope is the gigantic screens you can capture.  I use this feature on test drives so all I have to do is hook up the scope, drive it around the block and I don’t have to worry about looking at the scope because it is recording!  Awesome!  The only thing that will limit you in the use of this scope is your imagination.  If there are any HD Techs out there contemplating if they really need scope, you won’t be sorry if you purchase one of these units, it’s going to make you faster and more accurate in diagnostics, therefore less comebacks.  Plus with the awesome instruction of the Autonerdz crew and all the great Techs on the Autonerdz forum, I have become a better Technician.

2-Channel Starter Kit

Being involved in vehicle diagnostics on a daily basis i can not rate this tool enough. Working for main dealers i have been trained on and used several different oscilloscopes in the past but every time i prefer and will use my own pico scope. The ability to actually see the fault is a great feeling for me and ensures a proper and efficient fix. When mentioning using the scope a lot of technicians shy away but it really is such a easy tool to use. The support from pico is great from the you tube channels to the seminars they hold. Really do recommend the pico package.

Mark Stammers
2-Channel Starter Kit

I took a long time to switch from Fluke to Pico, but since doing so I have never looked back. I have a 4423 and now a 4425 and I use the 4425 every day. I sometimes use both together. For use with automotive diagnostics in my opinion, there is nothing close to Pico for the ease of use, complexity and resolution and price point. The continued development of the software and the superb support is without doubt the best reason to choose Picoscope. These tools just work and as I like to say; “The only restriction is your imagination”

jerry smith
2-Channel Starter Kit

After using a Picoscope a few times on the job. I realized how
incredibly useful they were. After checking some of the other scopes on the
market and seeing the difference in sample rating. There is no match for PICO.
If you are serious about diagnostics, you need to get one!!!

Mark Dalton
2-Channel Starter Kit

The tool is excellent, no doubt. Once you start using it you’ll want to use it all the time. But the support from Pico and on the Forum is what will turn you from a customer to believer.

my first contact with PICO was my friendchip with Carl Hills
Now it is a small passion
I am impressed by the possibilitys, quality and the continue improvements of the products
I appreciate very much the support via the pico site and Steve
As Triumph dealer i am very pride of my investment, as a teacher in evening classes I must fight against the Syntra FLUKE-obsession

Robert Burgy
2-Channel Starter Kit

This scope has saved me so much time and money!
After searching on the internet i settled with Pico because of
its ease of use, product reliability, tech support (which has not disappointed)
and overall sample rate. take a bow Pico. You are the best!!!

ANDREW BISHOP
4-Channel Starter Kit

Brought this after having very good results with a pico data logger got to say this is now becoming the scope of choice in the workshop as the software is light years ahead of the others we also have 3 different snap on scopes and a owon but the pico is the best and easy to navigate and as the waveform library gets bigger the jobs get easier

2-Channel Starter Kit

I was using older version (4423) scope for two years and lately upgraded to this new 4425. When old scope was just great then this new one is times 10 awesome. It’s faster, has more memory and I just love this new floating ground design.

I also have to mention that new case is much more suited for workshop use since it has protective case and BNC connectors are firmly installed.

And this very nice looking and easy to use software is just as important.

Great product.

The support I have received from Pico over the years has been superb. The regular software and driver updates are a real bonus.

I am very impressed by the function of the product and the service from ordering to arrival. We have been working with aftermarket fuel injection systems for more than 20 years and the automotive scope is a must for good installations.

PicoScope 4425 4-Channel Automotive Oscilloscope

Purchased Automotive Kit 2 months ago – Greatest tool in the workshop. This tool is worth far more than it costs and I highly recommend it and wish I’d known about it three years ago. The website is extremely helpful. As far as I am concerned you a doing a great job. Keep up the good work.

Picoscope is the most simple yet complex tool in my workshop for diagnostic use. It lets you see what you previously had to guess was happening.

James Ceccarelli
PicoScope 4225 2-Channel Automotive Oscilloscope

We are impressed with the performance of the PicoScope and its software, which we have been working with on several diesel powered vehicles. The information we have been able to record has been a great aid in knowing the condition of the engines we have tested. Thank you for developing a solid product for the diesel engine marketplace.

Ronald Gourlay
PicoScope 4425 4-Channel Automotive Oscilloscope

Having worked in the motor trade decades and seen lots of diagnostic equipment come and go Pico is the trade constant. Not just a hint to what fault maybe Pico diagnostic pinpoints it straight away with highest degree.
