Product Description
The TOPDON T-Darts is a compact transponder and remote tester designed to expand the key programming capabilities of compatible TOPDON tools. On its own, your T-Ninja Pro, UltraDiag, TopScan Pro, or ONE Plus is already a capable key programmer. Add the T-Darts, and you unlock a deeper layer of chip identification, frequency analysis, and remote testing that makes tackling a wider range of vehicles faster and more accurate.
Identify Chips and Keys Before You Program
Not sure what chip type is in a key or whether a remote is working correctly? The T-Darts answers that question in seconds. Simply insert the key or chip into the card slot and it reads the key type, key ID, and lock status instantly. It supports over 100 transponder chip types commonly found in vehicles today, including NXP, Megamos, Temic, and TI — so whether you're working on a late-model luxury vehicle or an older domestic, the T-Darts is likely to recognize what you're dealing with.
Pinpoint Remote Frequencies With Ease
The T-Darts also identifies the radio frequency of vehicle remotes and key fobs across four ranges:
- 300–320 MHz
- 430–434 MHz
- 868 MHz
- 902–915 MHz
With a standard detection range of roughly 0.4 to 4 inches, it gives you a clear, reliable read on the remote's frequency — helping you quickly confirm whether a remote is functioning and identify the correct replacement or programming approach.
Flexible Power and Connectivity
The T-Darts connects to your compatible TOPDON tool wirelessly via Bluetooth, keeping your workspace clean and cable-free during use. It can also connect directly to a smartphone through a dedicated app, letting you use your phone as a chip identification interface when it's more convenient. When it comes to power, you have two options: plug it in via the USB Type-C port, or load it up with four AAA batteries for fully portable, cord-free operation in the field or on a mobile service call.
Small Device, Meaningful Upgrade
At just 5.5 × 2.83 × 1.1 inches and weighing about 3.5 oz, the T-Darts fits in a pocket or a tool bag without taking up meaningful space. It's a small investment that meaningfully expands what your existing TOPDON key programmer can do, reducing the guesswork involved in chip identification and remote testing so you can work through jobs more confidently and efficiently.
