kane 455 and boiler probeunder 400 incl VAT, 5 yr warranty if you pay the £85 annual calibration fee

I could not make my mine up Anton or kane ,got the Anton in the end it's been good had it a few yes now but the calibration and service cost has made me weep.

if your doing servicing all day the printer is hyandy as you dont keep the fga running so long stick the probe in go and do the gas rate come back press print then switch of other wisw your for ever running out of battery

I have an Anton Sprint V2, seems a nice piece of kit.

just had the evo sprint 2 delivered today,got sick of calling on mates to borrow theirs.Seems good piece of kit,easy to use even for an idiot like me

I have the Evo now as some Rsole nicked my original unit.
I'm very happy with it.

Anton every time, used and owned Kane and testo, Anton's software gives you a helping hand.

Mine up for calibration. Where's the cheapest. Bet it's £250?

how much help can one need? apart from buying a kane to avoid stupid annual service charges by having a 455 or better

Trouble with the Anton is that they not only charge prohibitive amouts for recalibration, but they also were taking 3 weeks to turn the thing around. The sensors also seem to have a knack of dying bang on two years - so accurately that I phoned them up and accused them of including the date the things died in the on-board software. An accusation they vehemently denied. Eventually traded it for a Kane which I am so dependent on I have forgotten how to use a U-guage. However the Kane printer is a pain. Used a newer Anton on my reassessments last week (has it really been five years?) and the printer takes about 2 secs to print an analysis. Also I believe that the Anton has a good PC hookup which my Kane lacks and which I would find useful. I believe the Kane is better unit if you are Oftec and occasionally stick the probe into a flue without doing a smoke test first.
