I'm planing on using it for chipping a pm6 ecu for my turbo d16a6 project and using TurboEdit for tunning. Just wanna get enough feedback before i can buy a rom burner,
Thanks

i bought a epromer 5 for $60 on ebay.
haven't had any trouble with it; and its fast; and runs off a 9v battery.

it works for me i guess; but i hear it'll eat up at29c256 EEPROMs. But i just use EPROMs + an eraser so i wouldnt know first hand

I have a batronix 4. If it's not broke dont' try to fix it. I think that crap about earlier versions not being able to access winXP and win200 I/O ports is bullshit; my batronix 4 has no problem working with winXP.
