Customer Review
Differences between this and a handheld.
For any scan tool, there are 2 things:1) The connector that fits into the OBD port on your car.2) The interface that reads and reports the codes coming from your vehicle.For this item, a PC is required for #2. That's exactly what I wanted. I didn't want a little hand held unit that I had to scroll line by line to see all the codes and then possibly have to go look up code values to see what it was telling me.The software that comes with the unit has lots of features, but is still a bit basic. However, for anyone that's just looking to reset trouble codes, etc, it's just fine.The big benefit of this unit is data logging. You can set whatever parameters you want and then set the software to log it while you're driving. You would spend WAY more for a handheld unit that did data logging.If you want more analysis tools, then you can buy better software that will use the unit to collect data.I had no problems...

Well worth the money
For the price of a basic code reader you get an excellent scan tool with many features. You can also upgrade to the professional version on the manufacturers website for an additional fee.

OBDLink SX will quickly and accurately diagnose engine problems and access real-time parameters. All you need is a 1996 or newer vehicle and a Windows PC with a USB port, and you have a sophisticated, yet easy-to-use diagnostics system . Get all the features of a more expensive standalone scanner, plus the unparalleled graphics the latest OBDWiz software provides.
OBDLink SX is our basic plug-and-play scan tool designed for the budget-minded do-it-yourself mechanic. Powerful hardware, and advanced, upgradeable firmware make OBDLink SX the successor to our popular ElmScan 5 scan tool.

User Rating
After purchasing this tool, I compared it to my standard ODB II hand held scanner with much success. Not only does it have all of the funtions of the moderately to expensive hand held scanners found in most auto parts stores, it also allows for live date collection at a fraction of the price. Having a laptop or equivelant is neccessary when using the SX SCAN Tool, allowing for data collection and storage. I was able to view live parameters and see real time changes other scanners can't see.
