Can Condor Mini duplicate key from smart fortwo 3 button?

Have Smart fortwo 2003 with the button remote key. how do we cut this one? I have Condor XC mini and Condor Dolphin if that helps.

Smart 450 uses YM23.
Condor can make these 100%.
Also hu100r works fine.

Never by code.
If you measure up the cuts, you could select a similar keytype.
Or possible cut a depth of 1 on two positions.
The update tool allows you to create your own custom key files
condor-update-folder
I assume that your Condor mini can do the same as my master 007.
I have created a YM23 with 8 cuts. I placed it in the mercedes key folder.
Not sure that we can exchange theys files, but let us try.
Could someone load this custom KeyData.u file in there Condor.
Mini and or master.
Place the KeyData.u file in your condor file that contains: Condor 007 update software V1.0.5
Then open the CustomKeyTools,
Connect your pc with your condor using usb, and press synchronize.

Xhorse Condor Dolphin vs. SEC-E9

The answer to the question depends on your needs , forget for now cheap or expensive , and look at what you need it for ;
Before deciding to buy xhorse Dolphin or sec-e9, please ask yourself these questions:
are you looking to cut occasional keys , a lot of keys ?
do you want updates and latest keyways first ?
do you want a machine for now or a machine for many years ?
do you want a machine that holds its value so you get a decent rate when you sell on rather than a worthless bit of kit , decide what you want and what coverage you want reliably then fit the right machine to your needs

HERE is the biggest factor you will want to look at right now

And more…
xhorse Dolphin test reports:

  1. I have it. Till now cut hu64 keys and a couple of sip22 from fiat, 1 hu66 and work ok
condor-dolphin-review

  1. It doesn’t need constant internet connection.
internet is need only to register app and login APp , and download database
then you can be offline
also if you cut one side key , after Dolphin start cutting , you can disconnect tablet / phone and it will finish cut
if you have 2 side key , and you disconnect tablet / phone during key cutting , Dolphin will cut one side , and to start cut another side you need reconnect.

CONDOR MINI vs. CONDOR MINI Plus vs. Dolphin XP005

Topic: the advantages and disadvantage of three key cutting machines CONDOR MINI, Xhorse CONDOR MINI Plus & CONDOR Dolphin. And more focus on their target users and the working environment.
condor-mini-vs-mini-plus-vs-dolphin-xp005-1
Part 1: Xhorse CONDOR XC-MINI Plus is way better than CONDOR XC-MINI.

  1. Has brand new internal PCB.

  1. The adjustable screen comes with 3 specifications, which allows the user to adjust the screen to the appropriate height and prevent the problem of reflection in the sun.

  1. The cutting chips protection cover is added to prevent the key debris from entering the inside of the machine, and the short circuit is avoided after the power is turned on (the position of the Condor Mini protection cover is open and cannot be guaranteed)

  1. Has bigger dust cover and larger bottom tray, which is more secure than CONDOR XC-MINI.

  1. There is an opening at the bottom of the device, and there is also a receiving tray for receiving debris, which increases the protection mechanism and prolongs the service life of the device.

Seeing is believing, please look at the following images:

Group 1 . adjustable screen VS unmovable screen
Image 1: Xhorse Condor Mini plus : with adjustable screen.
condor-mini-vs-mini-plus-vs-dolphin-xp005-2
Image 2: Xhorse Condor XC-Mini comes with unmovable screen.
condor-mini-vs-mini-plus-vs-dolphin-xp005-3

Group 2: cutting chips protection cover Yes & No
Image 3: Condor Mini plus has cutting chips protection cover.
condor-mini-vs-mini-plus-vs-dolphin-xp005-4

Image 4: Xhorse Condor Mini doesn’t have cutting chips protection cover, the hands can reach in.
condor-mini-vs-mini-plus-vs-dolphin-xp005-5

Group 3: larger tray VS smaller tray.
Image 5: Condor Mini plus has larger tray.
condor-mini-vs-mini-plus-vs-dolphin-xp005-6

Image 6: Condor Mini has smaller tray.
condor-mini-vs-mini-plus-vs-dolphin-xp005-7
Image 7: The gap between the movable part and the Condor MINI machine is large
condor-mini-vs-mini-plus-vs-dolphin-xp005-8

Part 2: CONDOR MINI Plus VS CONDOR Dolphin
CONDOR MINI Plus wins Condor Dolphin in:
  1. a longer mechanical life
  2. more accurate key cutting
  3. with 3 million electric shocks, CONDOR MINI Plus has bigger power.
condor-mini-vs-mini-plus-vs-dolphin-xp005-9
Image 8: Has cut 75190 keys continually 

  1. No display screen
  2. Match key via APP running with a Android /IOS phone or PAD.

Condor Dolphin Pros:
  1. Cheaper price than CONDOR MINI Plus (Price for reference: Condor Dolphin $1,950, CONDOR MINI Plus $3,099)

  1. Lighter weight and easy to take when going out to cut the keys.

  1. Share as the same Clamp as CONDOR MINI Plus.

  1. Support all keys lost: you can connect APP to check, the database of all keys lost is as the same as CONDOR MINI Plus. Note: please ensure the network is connected.

  1. Dolphin has built-in lithium battery that can be fully charged in 3 hours. When the battery is full, it can cut 20 keys continuously, if not cut key, it has long standby time.

Condor Dolphin use note:
The protective cover is small, to prevent debris from flying upwards, there is a need to bring goggles.
