Is this a decent Tech 2?
If so, I will pull the trigger on this one.
Pretty sure that's where I bought mine in the last six months or so. Turned out alright for me so far. Quality is OK. I'm guessing all these Chinese clones are pretty much identical to each other anyway. I got mine quickly, not much more than a week. The only problem I've had is the connectors don't always make a firm connection. I've had to mess with them a few times to get them to work, but they always have. I've heard others have the same complaint.

Get the GM software with it. 33.004 is the latest version, and that's what's listed in the description for that option.
Yeah, I saw that as an add on, which is fine.
Thanks for the heads up.

Guess I will order one and check it out.

Thanks for the responses, guys.

I got so busy with my retirement and my upcoming move that I have not ordered a Tech 2 clone, yet.
So far, my Launch has almost everything I need to keep up with repairs but the programmability of the Tech 2 will be a huge bonus.

How did you make out with this?
I just ordered one based on this thread, so wish me luck.

I just went ahead and did the same. Does anyone have a good idea on a case?

I never go thru the hassle of unscrewing and unplugging everything and it just either sits in the corner or in a box ready to go upon need.
I have tossed it in a laptop bag before while traveling.
