    Which Modis is a better fit basically depends how hung your pocket book is

    They both use SMX system , boot in same amount of time, have the same size screen, the Edge still has only 2 channel scope like the Ultra, , good question, what difference is there?

      You know, I figured someone from snap On would jump all over this question as an opportunity to extoll the virtues of the new tool, but since no one has, one has to wonder just how close to the truth your answer actually came.

        First take a look at the Modis Edge features tab on the website here:


        We will put together some more information and get the compare function working.

          HI witsend,
          There maybe more info than this, but this is what I noticed using the MODIS Edge in the field.
          • The MODIS Edge smaller, lighter thinner and yet it has the same size screen. For me this is easier to carry when testing in the field as I need to walk a ways to get to the car I need to test at times especially since I am carrying Labscope leads, Current probes as well as ignition COP adapters.
          •The MODIS Edge software has the oil specs and resets” Selection and the ultra does not.
          •The MODIS Edge software also has enhanced Code view information from Sure-Track.

          Anyone else who has used this tool have anything to add, Thanks and hope my two cents helps Dynodave

              Don't quote me on this, but one thing I should add is that as long as the subscription is current then you should have access to the enhance code view from Sure-Track I believe.

                I like my modis edge very light and thin, the back stand holds it at the right angle when you want hands free. the cord is longer so you can reach the front of an engine bay instead of setting it on the window and looking around or under the hood. the obd2 connector has a led light with button to help find the vehicle connector in those dark cars. the oil specs and resets have saved me miles, you don't have to walk back to your pc to look these up there right there in the tool. one of the best platforms I v used, just my 2 cents

                  I like the common specs and reset feature as long as it don't time out with your sub. It basically has WIFI but don't have full internet access , maybe SSC on our laptop could run a version of Team Viewer inside it and let us B@tch our laptops to the Modis Ultra and access programs and sites from our laptops 30 feet away.Just an idea if the Verdict is going to bite the dust soon.
