Overall, the Smoostart Microchip Scanner is a reliable, efficient tool for anyone needing to scan and manage pet microchip information. Its compatibility with multiple microchip formats, data storage capacity, and ease of use make it a valuable asset in animal care and management.

Works wonderfully! Such a great item for such a great price! Works perfectly with stray and feral cats — even tested it on my own pets & it shows their microchip number, which I can then look up on various websites online. Highly recommend!

My daughter who lives in an area loaded with stray cats got this first and has been happy with its effectiveness. Where I live we get a few a month and I was always looking for an i.d. tag, calling the owner, usually not getting an answer, faced with a challenge then. Now I love seeing a stray cat or dog so I can assist by calling the chip source for more accurate information and advice. I love the simplicity of this scanner and I think it’s a good value! When scanning, remember to cover the neck all the way to the shoulders. My husband scared me when he said there wasn’t a chip on our pet so I did a more thorough scan area. Whew! It was closer to the space between the shoulder blades.

It does not read every type of microchip so while this is a good scanner for most pets you may want to take an animal to a clinic or shelter before you know theres no chip. Its easy to use, compact, and otherwise a useful tool for those who stop and scan animals.

Worked great. We were able to scan a dog we found living on the streets for over a month and it detected a chip right away and showed us the microchip number on the screen. We searched the microchip number which showed us when it was last updated, the dog’s name and the breed.

I bought the Smoostart Pet Microchip Scanner with high hopes, envisioning a future where I'd effortlessly identify every missing pet or misplaced pig in my vicinity. After all, how hard could it be? Apparently, quite hard! The moment I powered up this sleek black marvel, I imagined it as a high-tech wand capable of revealing the hidden identities of animals. Instead, it turned into a digital game of "Tag, You're Not It." Despite my valiant attempts with three different tags, the scanner was like a stubborn genie refusing to grant any wishes. Each time I waved it around, it flatly refused to acknowledge the tags, proclaiming with an air of digital disdain, “No tag found.” If this scanner were a character in a movie, it would be the overly dramatic villain with a flair for theatrical misdirection. Unfortunately, unlike a villain in a film, it doesn't come with a redemption arc. Instead, it left me with an empty feeling and a growing pile of animal tags. In the end, the Smoostart Pet Microchip Scanner is perfect if your goal is to master the art of scanning nothingness. For those seeking a reliable way to read pet microchips, you might want to keep searching for a scanner that doesn’t see every tag as a figment of its imagination.

The seller says to make sure that your chip is compatible with the scanner. However, without having my original chip information (which is a large reason why I bought this), I had no way to know if my cats and dogs had EMID OR FDX-B (ISO1784/85) chips. Here is what I can say. My oldest dog was chipped in 2011 in Washington state. My community cat was chipped in 2012 or 2014 in Indiana. All animals except my youngest two where chipped at different vets. All chips came up in seconds and all of them show FDX-B (15 digit). I need to update my contact information, so after scanning and saving the chip numbers, I used the AAHA ORG lookup to find what company the chips were registered under. The site let's you know which company has the chip registration information. It also gives the website and phone number you need to contact to update or transfer the chip! This was incredibly easy to use, has the convenience of c compatible charging, and is way faster than the animal control scanners. This was well worth the money!!

Entièrement satisfait J'ai scanné les puces de chevaux , moutons et chien et le lecteur à fonctionné à chaque fois. Le seul point négatif est le manque de précision de la notice d'utilisation.. Voici quelques astuces pour le transfert des numéros de puce : - régler dans "Settings" > "Data Mode" sélectionner "DEC Mode" et non "HEX MODE" -pour transférer sur ordinateur ou téléphone, que ce soit par Bluetooth ou usb, il faut d'abord ouvrir un document de traitement de texte (Word sur ordi ou Note sur téléphone) Puis il faut appuyer sur "UPLOAD" > "Usb" ou "Bluetooth" sur le lecteur. Vous verrez les numéros s'inscrire sur la page ouverte ! Autre petite critique, le lecteur ne se rend pas compte qu'il lit deux fois la même puce et il va enregistrer deux fois le même numéro. Je m'en sert pour l'inventaire de mon troupeau et du coup je dois bien faire attention à ne pas scanner la deux fois le même animal pour avoir le compte juste. Si cela pouvait être rectifié se serait génial. Ps: on peut couper le son si c'est dérangeant pour les animaux

Fast charging.Long life battery. Shows complete number in any time of the day

Brilliant , great value for money , picks up microchips perfectly

Testé sur mes deux chiens et détection des puces très rapide ! Seul petit bémol : lecture relativement petite.... Après on n'y lit pas un roman donc c'est quand même suffisant !

Worked well did what it said it would do.
