Thread: Chinese EAS Reset tool

These guys dont take long to catch up and start cloning stuff. I doubt it wont be long before you will see these for $25 each on e-bay. Still not for me, I will stick with my EAS lead and netbook

Dave, that $60 cable is just an EAS Unlock Cable with a built-in USB controller. You already have one!

The text in the description is a straight copy/paste from Storey Wilson's page at rswsolutions.com and I doubt that they are giving him any credit or profit-sharing from the sale of his cable.

The "EAS Reset Tool" that Wayne links to is a copy of Storey's EAS Buddy, and it is more expensive than the original!

One of the Chinese copy-mobs are also selling a clone of Storey's Rover All-Comms (RAC) tool for the L322. Problem is that Storey requires registration of each RAC and unless it was sold by him or Hard Range (until end of this week), he will not activate the software or support the tool

I am not aware of anyone copying the Nanocom yet, but I guess it really just is a matter of time. Support-ability of such copies may be a problem, as BBS release regular software updates for the Nanocom (and FaultMate). They are fiercely protective of their IP and will no doubt make it near-impossible for copied units to get support or updates... quite understandably.

My advice is to steer away from such copies and support the original manufacturers who put the effort in to create tools for us LR/RR enthusiasts.

Cheers, Paul.
