Which clone do you recommend me? Are they 100% clones? (work with avr studio, same fw etc.)

thanks.

You should get the AVR Dragon. It has ISP, JTAG, DebugWire and HV programming capabilities, fully powered by USB, and costs around $60.

The JTAG MKIIs are not indestructible. I have 6 JTAG MKIIs. Two of them have failed, one was at least 3-4 years old. The second was 2 months old. Over the years I have also had 8-10 flat flex cables fail and a pod fail. The most recently purchased came with an extra flat flex cable.

I purchased a Chinese knockoff, it never worked.

I have a Dragon I don't use.

I would like to buy 1-2 of http://www.dhgate.com/usb-avr-jtag-ice-mk-ii-metal-box-anodised/r-ff8080812cf9abc5012cfaf3e60f6e35.html I like the metal enclosure and the fact that it uses a ribbon cable instead of the flat flex cable, but I am gun shy since the other knockoff was DOA.

I keep purchasing the real unit and have recommended on several occasions that clients do the same.

This might suit your needs and costs only 40 Euros. Or you could build your own with some instructions from here.
