Chameleon Ultra V3.0 RFID/NFC Research Tool
The upgraded Chameleon Ultra V3.0 is a compact RFID/NFC research, testing, and emulation platform with support for both 125 kHz LF and 13.56 MHz HF systems.
It features an intelligent charge/discharge management system and lithium-battery protection designed to improve battery safety and help reduce long-term capacity degradation.
Features
- 8 selectable card slots
- Each slot can hold one HF and one LF profile
- Up to 8 IC/HF + 8 ID/LF profiles, for 16 stored profiles total
- Supports reading, writing, storing, and emulating supported RFID tags and cards
- Supports both 125 kHz and 13.56 MHz RFID
- Bluetooth connectivity
- USB Type-C connectivity
- Improved antenna/resonance tuning for reliable card-reading performance
- A+B button reset/restart function
- Quick Bluetooth disconnect
- DFU/recovery functionality through USB
- Rechargeable internal lithium battery
Expanded Compatibility
The Chameleon Ultra can also be used with supported third-party hardware and firmware environments, including:
- CYD Monster on the NerdMiner RF Hat
- HailHound 3.5 by Jesse Hale
This gives the Chameleon another role beyond the standard phone and desktop GUI workflow, especially for portable RFID/NFC research setups.
Included Test Tags
Each DCW kit includes:
- 2 HF RFID keychain tags
- 2 additional LF RFID test tags
The HF and LF tags use different physical shapes, making them easy to distinguish. Colors may vary.
Custom DCW Case Options
Every unit includes a custom 3D-printed protective case with your choice of size:
Field Case — compact, tightly packed design intended for portable use and minimum space.
Lab Case — larger format with additional room around the device and accessories for easier bench or desktop use.
Both sizes are available at no additional charge.
Lid Options
Choose between:
Green Logo — black case with a contrasting green Chameleon design.
Stealth Black Logo — black-on-black design. The Chameleon blends into the lid from straight on but becomes visible as the surface catches the light.
