SR550Pro TPMS Tool vs SR100Pro TPMS Tool – What's the Difference?
Both the Bartec SR550Pro and SR100Pro are professional TPMS diagnostic and programming tools designed for tyre shops and automotive repair workshops. However, there are some important differences in their features, connectivity, charging and software updates.
The main distinction is that the SR550Pro is the more advanced, feature-rich tool, while the SR100Pro is a simpler, more affordable alternative focused on essential TPMS servicing.

2. The biggest practical differences
Software updates: The SR550Pro supports direct Wi-Fi updating, making it easier to keep the tool current without connecting it to a computer. The SR100Pro requires Bartec's TPMS Desktop software on a PC or laptop for updates.
Connectivity: The SR550Pro offers Bluetooth connectivity for transferring diagnostic reports, whereas the SR100Pro does not provide the same wireless data-transfer capability.
Charging: The SR550Pro offers convenient wireless inductive charging. The SR100Pro instead has a field-replaceable battery, which can be advantageous for long-term servicing.
Core TPMS capability: Both tools can activate sensors, program supported aftermarket sensors, perform relearns and communicate with vehicles through a wired OBDII connection. The SR100Pro is therefore not limited to basic sensor activation.
3. Which tool is better for different workshops?
Choose the TECH550Pro for busy, high-volume workshops
Particularly suitable for tyre shops and repair facilities that need convenient software updates, wireless reporting, placard programming and a more streamlined workflow.
Choose the TECHRITEPro for value and essential TPMS servicing
Ideal for smaller workshops or technicians who want professional diagnostics, sensor programming and relearn functionality without paying for additional wireless features.
