ScanAvenger Portable Wireless Bluetooth Barcode Scanner: 3-in-1 Hand Scanners - Cordless, Rechargeable 1D and 2D Scan Gun for Inventory Management - Wireless, Handheld, USB Bar Code/QR Code Reader

We bought this scanner in order to scan the ISBNs of our large personal library and bulk-load them into LibraryThing. It serves that purpose well; it's easy to hold, fast to scan, and holds a charge for a really long time (we've had it a week and haven't recharged it yet). More importantly, since it's a "wedge" scanner, meaning that it's seen by a computer as a keyboard device, it really does work with any computer you have that has a USB-A port, Windows, Linux, Mac, or Chromebook. The instructions that come with it are scanty at best, and the UI of "change settings by scanning a barcode" is clumsy (but don't ever lose that little book of barcodes!). However, that's more than offset by the fact that their tech support is really, really good, and speedy. Like, we were having problems syncing it with our Mac Mini and their tech support got back to us in less than 3 hours with instructions that fixed the issue. Some non-obvious things that will save you time asking tech support: - you don't turn the scanner off, it goes to sleep on its own - if it's not already in "storage" mode, it will not wake up from sleep until it can sync with the dongle - the radio dongle has a theoretical range of 300ft, but that doesn't take walls and floors into account; the signal is easily blocked by them. I recommend making use of storage mode.

Excellent product and even better customer service. Just bought my 2nd scanner

Pretty happy with this scanner. It's very good for a scanner at this price.

Really impressed with this. Firstly it feels well made, and setting up is a doddle. Initially I used the supplied USB cable (printer style at the scanner end, so does not fall out easily) - then moved to the Bluetooth dongle when at last I found it (in a tiny blue bag stapled to the scanner packaging, that I'd put in the bin). Charging if through the USB cable of course. Connecting to Bluetooth was just a matter of using the barcodes printed in the instructions. Don't lose those instructions, as contains the barcodes for lots of other settings, e.g. turning the beep on/off. It works as a USB keyboard - the computer knows no difference. So on my Linux computer, I simply opened up a text editor (see video) and the barcodes and QR codes appeared. What you do with them is entirely up to the software you are using - so presumably, to enter in a code, you'll first need to have the focus on wherever the code is to be entered - just like entering by hand on a keyboard. That also means it's perfect for producing your own barcodes, then entering them into e.g. a spreadsheet - say if you want to produce tickets for an event, and have per-seat codes. All very nice. Overall, a very useful and high quality item.

Tras dos dias de uso lo veo muy interesante, su diseño, su calidad y su forma de leer los codigos tanto en papel como en pantalla de movil. Es muy buen lector, a ver si la empresa hace algun soporte o base para poderlo dejar cuando no se trabaja con el. Para mí os lo recomiendo, espero que siga asi durante años funcionando igual que el primer dia
