Review: Works well for CAN sniffing - Worked well, used this to sniff some CAN messages on a 2015 Mustang. Didn't change the firmware, left it alone and ended up finding a slightly older version of SavvyCAN that someone made a plugin for (drop a .dll into the SavvyCAN canbus folder). This allowed SavvyCAN to work with the Candlelight firmware that this thing came with. Not sure how you beat this for $17.
Review: Updated version works fine. - After reading the various reviews on this, I decided to take a chance. There are a couple reviews here talking about how the CAN-L line is shorted to ground. Indeed this was an issue at one point. Upon reading some of the reviews from other countries, it looks like DSD Tech was aware of the issue and fixed it, commenting as much on various reviews. So I hope that people who got the version shorted were able to get a replacement from DSD Tech. My experience with this has been fine. I did use a multimeter before intial use to see if I got the updated board or not and indeed, my board was fine. No shorts between CAN-L and ground. Instsalled drivers and such on my laptop, hooked up everyting to my 2011 VW Golf. Works fine with both SavvyCan and CANHacker. Using this setup to research the data packets sent over the CANBUS. Once I have all the data I need, I'll use that data with an Arduino Nano and MCP2515 CANBUS module to control some addressable LEDs.

## Features

- DSD TECH: DSD TECH focuses on the development of communication connection devices such as USB/Serial/Wireless. We have served more than 100,000 customers in Europe, North America and Japan.
- Open Source Hardware, Actually Published: SH-C30A comes from the CANable open hardware project — and we publish our own design back. The full schematic and PCB layout for this exact board are on our GitHub (dsdtech-official), as editable design files rather than pictures, under the CERN-OHL-S-2.0 licence, together with the firmware images. Inspect it, modify it, build your own.
- USB to CAN Bus: With this adapter, your computer can be connected directly to the CAN bus. Built-in 120 ohm switch and programming switch(DSD TECH is the first to feature this switch design on a USB CAN adapter).
- Flexibility on Open Protocols: SH-C30A ships with candleLight firmware, which speaks gs_usb — a protocol whose driver is built into the Linux kernel, so it comes up as a standard SocketCAN interface with nothing to install. Works with cangaroo, can-utils, python-can and BUSMASTER. You can also reflash it to slcan firmware from your browser at canable.io.
- New Firmware, Free on GitHub: SH-C30A shipped with the stock CANable candleLight build, which ignores the 24 MHz crystal fitted on the board. Our own build runs from that crystal and lights the TX and RX LEDs the stock build left dark. Units produced from September 2026 ship with it already installed; earlier units can be updated over USB — free, and entirely optional.
