Hero Pet Microchip Reader, Bluetooth, Includes Case and Test Chip

Love love love this product. I love the Bluetooth feature as scanning a homeless cat has to be subtle and quick at the same time and having the chip go directly to my phone helps a lot. It also can pick the chip up at times a few inches away which is also helpful. I've had this for years as I got tired of always having to borrow one while I was on my own hunt for my trapped and dumped furr child. I've never had to change the battery either! Battery life great! It's super durable! Definitely came to me highly recommend and it's completely worth the money!. I love the case it comes with also.

I love this scanner! Works well, seems to work everytime. The beeper is not loud enough for me but I do have hearing loss. The only trouble I find is that I cannot find more rechargeable batteries with a USB port. I would like to have a spare. I would have purchased a Hero pocket reader to fit in my purse but wasn't sure if it would be the same quality.

Muy buen producto para mi refugio de animales

We travelled with our dog from US to Czech Republic and back and he has a non-ISO chip and we didn’t want to risk it. We tested it many times and it works great. But we never got it out of the bag and no one asked about our dog’s microchip in the airports or anywhere else. I think it’s a bit pricey for what it does though.

Worked perfectly when I brought my cat to Japan. They don't have microchip readers that work for certain types of microchips at the airport so you must bring your own to avoid your pet being quarantined. Was in and out within minutes. Recommend!

I was a bit skeptical when I first bought this product. This was mostly because the microchip reader I was told to buy was an industrial, however, that one was sold out at the time, so I purchased this one.I opened the box, put in the battery, and immediately scanned my animals. It worked for microchips over 14 years of age and as little as a few weeks. I further confirmed this when I went to the municipal shelter. It works fast and accurately.I am confident that it will work on almost all, if not all chips out there.I would recommend this scanner if you want an all-around good product/good value!

It is easy to use for scanning, and it accurately picked up my own two cats chips I tested it with. I use it when stray cats try to live in my yard so I can try to figure out who owns them, and get them returned. One thing I wish they would improve is it needs better instructions on how to use it with your phone and bluetooth, I had to search in these reviews q & A's and review comments to find out (works with my iphone's Notes app that comes with the phone, the chip # will go to the phone when you scan, as long as you have the phone in your pocket or nearby. )

This scanner is WONDERFUL! Well made, well designed, and very easy to use. I bought another, less expensive, China-made scanner, that had decent reviews and said it read all chips, including AVID chips, but it did not work at all, straight out of the box. I searched again and found HERO. It arrived yesterday, and I was able to read the chips in each of my four animals. My eldest dog has the AVID chip, and not all scanners will read this. The directions for the HERO are flawless and very easy to follow. I love that it has a Bluetooth feature. So glad I have this scanner. It's quality is top notch, and it comes in a nice zippered carrying case which makes storage super easy. **Definitely Recommend**
