The previous device Proxmark3 Easy worked beautifully. Unfortunately, my apartment in the Spectrum Building burned down and I lost everything. I bought a new Proxmark3 from Aliexpress. New laptop, new Proxmark3 Easy and this is where the problem begins. He doesn’t read fobs Paxton. The solution was to add a 3mH inductor in parallel to the 125KHz coil, which I desoldered from an LED bulb. Maybe this information will be useful to someone. I like helping…
Sorry to hear that, glad that at least you are ok.

you can also put the bullet fob half on/off the antenna so it intersects the antennas and place a metal spoon (yes an eating spoon) over it like a dome
have you checked to see how this hardware mod might impact other kinds of tags like t5577 and em4305?
it looks very cool and incredibly useful

I felt ridiculous trying the spoon suggestion but it worked first time on my cheapo Amazon Proxmark3 Easy after hours of nothing.

+1 for the spoon trick, I did the same and managed to read a Paxton hitag2 by doing it, otherwise lf search wouldn’t detect anything.
