I own a verus and have the test leads, amp clamps, ignition pick ups, pressure transducer can these be used with a pico scope I am thinking about purchase of a pico and could save a few $ if I can purchase just the scope and use my accessories that I already have

You will need BNC to banana adapters, The Pico amp clamps are much better, IMO, I also have both and rarely use the S.O one.

I would not even attempt to do any pin point diagnosis with a S.O pressure transducer, maybe cranking waves.  WPS all the way in that respect.

I have no first hand experience with S.O ignition adapters.

P.S  I'm not a paid endorser  Wink  I have just been using the equipment for about 6 yrs. and its held up and performs as expected. Cool

All I would add to Mike's post at this time is make sure you purchase a Pico kit that gets you in downstairs to the Picogroup. It will serve you well if you invest in yourself by putting out the effort.  Cool

Jim,

You might want to take a look at our PicoQuad Lite kit:

While you can create custom software probes to make use of other accessories, you may be disappointed in the performance of some of these accessories.

As for the SO pressure transducer, it is not accurate for in cylinder testing no matter what you do.  As Mike said, the WPS is really the only way to go there.
