OTC Encore Tool Review -EricTheCarGuy

OTC Encore list price $1875.00Link to tool: http://www.jbtoolsales.com/otc-3893-encore-obdii-deluxe-tablet-automotive-scan-tool-kit/#oid=1002_1I had the chance to use this tool for a while before I did the review. I even took it to Pittsburgh and showed it to ScannerDanner. We agree that it's a capable tool but perhaps a bit slow. I'm no expert, but I think it has something to do with the processor used. That said, it still has a lot of great features and at this price point, I think it's a great value. The Encore really shines when you add features like Identifix. With just a few clicks, you're well on your way to a diagnosis. The Android operating system also makes it easy to learn and use. All around, I think the OTC Encore is a great tool and represents a transition into the next generation of scan tools.Camera: Brian KastRelated videos.Choosing an Automotive Scan Tool: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yCxsdCtxvtEUseful Links.OTC Encore product page: http://www.otctools.com/products/otc-encoreIdentifix: https://www.identifix.com/Default.aspxMitchell1: http://www.mitchellrepair.com/main/Alldata: http://www.alldata.comiATN: http://www.iatn.netFor other tools and deals check out the Tools page at EricTheCarGuy.com: http://www.ericthecarguy.com/toolsDiscussion about this video: http://www.ericthecarguy.com/kunena/18-The-EricTheCarGuy-Video-Forum/50666-otc-encore-tool-review#94542The best place for answers to your automotive questions: http://www.ericthecarguy.comEricTheCarGuy code lookup: http://www.ericthecarguy.com/obd-code-lookupFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/EricTheCarGuy?fref=tsTwitter: https://twitter.com/EricTheCarGuyGoogle+: https://plus.google.com/100195180196698058780/postsInformation on Premium Membership: https://www.ericthecarguy.com/premium-content-streaming-etcg-contentStay DirtyETCGDue to factors beyond the control of EricTheCarGuy, it cannot guarantee against unauthorized modifications of this information, or improper use of this information.  EricTheCarGuy assumes no liability for property damage or injury incurred as a result of any of the information contained in this video. EricTheCarGuy recommends safe practices when working with power tools, automotive lifts, lifting tools, jack stands, electrical equipment, blunt instruments, chemicals, lubricants, or any other tools or equipment seen or implied in this video.  Due to factors beyond the control of EricTheCarGuy, no information contained in this video shall create any express or implied warranty or guarantee of any particular result.  Any injury, damage or loss that may result from improper use of these tools, equipment, or the information contained in this video is the sole responsibility of the user and not EricTheCarGuy.
