    Which Eprom programmer to buy

    I have done a lot of searching on the web and this forum, but did not find an answer.
    I'm looking for a programmer that can flash the W25Q64FW / W25Q32FW (1.8Volt), and perhaps later on different ones.
    I have found the EZP2010, EZP2013, EZP2019, CH341A but I have no idea which is better and more reliable in hardware/ software functions / updates.
    These links I have found:

    EZP2019
    EZP2013
    CH341A
    EZP2010

    Any one with experience with these model numbers ?

        I cannot edit the original posting anymore, but it's not the W25Q64FW / W25Q32FW.
        The correct chips are W25Q32FVSSIQ and W25Q64FVSSIQ, these are 3V chips and not 1.8V

          So does the RT809h with the adapter. As for cheap, go with the ch341a.

            Thanks for the information.
            No one has experience with the EZP201X programmers?.

            The EZP2019 is also cheap (under the $14 dollar), and it has a couple of adapters.

            Is XGecu (www.xgecu.com) the original fabricator of the TL866II Plus, and is this a better to buy ?

              I have a TL866 plus and the RT809h. The TL866 has a nice and easy software. It's not a mix between English and Chinese like on the RT809h. It all depends on the end what you want / need to program and what you can afford on the end of the day. In my case I have both, because one is not programming something the other one does and vise versa.

                I have ezp 2010 and I've read and write gpu ,laptop, and one dslr bios.
                I have no problems with aside drivers but it turned out to be ok in win10.

                Successful manually flashed gpus bios and I can't complain.
                Laptop bios was the original but those one where easy.
                Just cook it! It's already broken.

                            I have the TL866 which does not program 1.8V chips. So far it has done everything that I need but is it worth buying one of these EZP2019 programmers as well?

                            They are not that much more compared with the 1.8V adapter for the TL866 listed on this thread.

                            I'm programming mainly motherboard BIOS and possibly some GPU BIOS. If it is likely I am going to come across 1.8V eproms in future, I'm thinking I may as well get one now and keep it in the drawer for when it is needed, rather than have to put some job on one side and wait 4 weeks pr more for one to arrive in the future.

                                  Guys I'm reviving this topic to ask if in your opinion buying a TL866ii plus is a good move considering I only need it for TVs; or which one would you buy?

                                  Also I found on a polish (I think) website a "homemade" programmer called NANDLite which is only for TSOP48 nand. Does any of you have experience with it?

                                  Right now I'm using a ch341 which woks great but it can't do nand and I'm seeing nands more and more even on non-smart TVs so I guess I'll have to be prepared.
                                  TiA!

                                    XGECU has a new universal progrmmer along side the TL866II called T56. It uses the same software as the TL866II too. The T56 is faster and it also does more chips.

                                      T56 is 3x as expensive -if you need 48pins then it's a bargain compared to the competition though.

                                        Thank you both for the answers.

                                        So you recommend the T56 over the tl866II

                                        On the aliexpress page there is a link to a compatibility list, right now I want to try programming a H27U1G8F2CTR that I have on a LG tv but it's not on the list, so how does compatibility works?
