Review: Can scan multiple types of microchips and has PC software - Cheapest scanner that can scan multiple types of pet microchips. I volunteer with an animal rescue organizing so this is very helpful. The next best microchip scanners cost much much more, but do have more features and support. This is a good basic scanner. I have been able to scan: 134Khz FDX-B ISO 15 digit microchips 125Khz FDX-A 10 digit microchips 125Khz EM4102 (BME) tags Some 125 kHz AVID 9 digit microchips; but doesn't store them in history Sometimes detects presence of 9 digit encrypted microchips Because this scanner cannot scan all microchip types, if you don't find a chip you should double check with a professional scanner. For most cases this scanner will work. It's less common to find 10 or 9 digit microchips now. It's very easy to use, press the button on the back and you have about 20 seconds to scan a pet. If it finds a microchip it will beep, show the number, and store it in memory. Make sure to scan all over the animal because microchips have been known to move around. If you want to view the history, wait for the unit to turn off and hold the button for 4 seconds and release. Then scroll the history by pressing the button. If the unit detects that the pet has been reported as missing it will flag it, this only works if you use the software and keep the Scanner Angel software up to date. You may optionally connect the scanner to your Windows PC via an old and uncommon USB Mini-B type connector, in 2025 this really should be updated to USB C. The software is called Scanner Angel and must be downloaded from the Halo Scanner website. The software will access the history of all the microchips that have been scanned. It also had a database of missing animals and will flag if the scanned chip number has been indicated as missing; this is fairly limited because this only works if someone reported the pet missing to Scanner Angel's database.
Review: Highly recommended! - I rescue abandoned/stray cats and either try to get them back to their families if they are lost or find them homes or non-kill shelters if they are abandoned. This enables me to identify them immediately if they have a chip. That helps immensely. The chip reader has not failed once yet and you barely have to wave it behind their neck and it picks up. Also an it will tell the temperature of a cat if their microchip has that Feature. Extremely nice if you have a sick cat who doesn't want a thermometer the traditional way. Highly recommend. A year and a half and I've used multiple times and have never had a problem yet. Holds a charge for a long time as well.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does this read a 9 digit chip?**
A: Specifications say 10-15 digit. It should at least indicate there is a chip but just not the number if it is one it can't read. Since it's not a universal I was told it didn't read old AVID chip but I was pleasantly surprised when it did provide the entire number on my 3 pets 9-15 years old with AVID chips!

**Q: Are these compatible with apple mac?**
A: You don't need a computer to use this product.  Just keep it plugged in to an outlet and scan when you need to scan for a chip.  It reads the chip quickly.  Jot the number down and start searching for the provider of that chip.  Home Again, AKC, etc.  If you need help, any vet could help you without charge.

**Q: Does this work with Pro ID mini microchip?**
A: Yes, it does. The Halo scanner is actually distributed by the manufacturer of the Pro ID Mini - Buddy ID Microchip.

**Q: My cat has two microchips. A 10-digit and a 15-digit.  I want the scanner to only read the 10-digit microchip.  Can this product do that?**
A: The scanner will display the microchip that it first detects. Which could be either chip. There is no way to program the scanner to only read one of the mircochips.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ LITERALLY saved my overseas move! SO happy right now!
*by M***M on June 18, 2025*

This scanner LITERALLY saved our entire move. I am SO RELIEVED right now. I am moving to the UK on a shoestring budget in just a couple of weeks, but one of my cats has an AVID chip not the standard ISO compliant chip. AVID chips are allowed, you just have to bring your own scanner to scan them. I could have gotten her implanted with a second, ISO compliant chip yesterday at her rabies shot appointment, but she's old and I didn't want to put her through that. So I did a quick look to see how affordable scanners were, saw a bunch in the $25-50 range, and told the vet not to worry about the chip and to just take care of her rabies shot (which must happen AFTER implanting, meaning now that she's had the shot, I CAN'T get her a second chip in time for our move ) What I didn't realize at that time was that the more affordable scanners I was seeing don't scan AVID chips, and I can't afford the AVID-specific ones. So I spent the evening stressing and worrying I had just ruined our entire overseas move plan.....until I found THIS scanner. The scanner is not specifically labeled as AVID compliant (it says it will pick them up, but not show the number, which won't work for travel), but it does say it will display standard 10-digit chip numbers. So I figured, let's gamble on it and pick it up. I can always return it if it isn't what I need. And ....it worked PERFECTLY!! It picked up Harley's AVID chip with no problem, and displayed the number exactly the way I needed it to. Crisis averted! UK, here we come! :)
