Awesome timing, SD!
I am, presently, looking to purchase programming equipment. I am looking at the CarDAQ-M, featured in the video, and the Snap on Pass thur Pro 2 or 3.
I am interested in ANY and ALL input as to Pros and Cons of different devices.

I am seeing the CarDAQ-M sell for $1847.63. www.aeswave.com/cart.php?m=affiliate_go&...ogramming-p8978.html
I see the Snap on Pass thru sell for $1698.00 www1.snapon.com/diagnostics/us/PassThruProIII
I can put the Snap On on my account. I have to pay cash, in full, for the CarDAQ.
I don't mind paying cash in full, if there are advantages to the CarDAQ.

I, definitely, will. And, I'll chalk that up as +1 advantage for the CarDAQ. It may, also, be an advantage to be using the same device that you use, should you do more videos on the subject.
+2 for CarDAQ

Don't worry about the little kick back I get from AES.

The Snap On Pass thru Pro III IS a CarDAQ-M in a RED case.
The price difference of, roughly, $150.00 came out in the wash, as AESWAVE did not charge sales tax. (Snap On would have.)
I ordered the CarDAQ-M.

I've used the Snappy Pass Thru Pro II, can confirm it's rebranded DrewTech stuff, right down to the J2543 Toolbox that's included. Never had a problem programming anything.

I've also been looking to get into the game, it's necessary if you want to make money independently in this field.
You just can't see a diag all the way through and charge a customer for a diagnosis/repair and tell them "you owe me $xxx, for what I've done, now tow it to the dealer and they'll get it running for you. Thank you, come again!"
These devices seem to be more available (attainable, affordable) now than even just a couple of years ago. MAC Tools even includes one with their Android scan tool.
I'd hate to start paying to play, and in 6-7 months time find out they're changing the game....
