Default Double Check on the OBD Adapter

Hey everybody, just getting ready to order this, thought I'd make sure there wasn't one I was missing that was better or anything.

Basically, does this one look good? Its V1.5 and comes with instructions and such.

I think there was another thread discussing these not so very long ago. I don't think anyone has direct experience with 'em, so, we will all be interested in what you think of it.

Agreed. A review and screen shots (if possible) would be greatly appreciated.

I have one. And I just ordered another as a gift ..I have the 1.5 version also but I got mine with the orange label from the seller in Brooklyn NY, his shipping is fast and his prices are better.

I'm impressed for what it does and how well it works for $23 shipped. I want to get a 7" andriod with gps and use it with that as a more permanent solution.
It works well on my ram as well as on my company camry and my dads 2005 f150...I noticed some things that work on one vehicle dont on another but that seems to be because of the way the vehicle is set up and not the device. some complain of time lag but I think that must be with older versions because mine seems to have about a half a second response lag which because its bluetooth is actually really good.
the instructions are a joke.... you just plug it in... the code to connect to any device is "1234" all the rest of the directions are with the application like torque.
I actually was able to diagnose a bad injector with it on my dads ferd...
