Ownership verified by DX Sweet deal

Involvement: Expert (understands the inner workings) - Ownership: more than 1 month

Overall Rating: starstarstarstarstar

Pros: - Works GREAT with Voyager (Android 2.0 app).
- Currently these are the smallest OBD Bluetooth adapters on the net.
- Can be used to find out why your check engine light is on.
- Can be used for real-time data monitoring (requires an app).
- Super easy to use - just plug and play!

Cons: - It's not made in USA?
- Not an authentic ELM327 chip?
- Cannot change the default encryption PIN
- Always discoverable, so potential for someone connecting to it wirelessly, but they can't do anything uneless your car is running. Also note that if it's connected to one device, it does go stealth so others won't see it in their Bluetooth device list.

Other Thoughts: These adapters are fast, and super easy to use. The price is an absolute steal. Get one before all your friends do!

Bottomline: Get an adapter, get an android 2.0 phone, and get Voyager =)

Ownership verified by DX Trojan on install CD

Involvement: Expert (understands the inner workings) - Ownership: less than 1 day

Price: starstarstarstarstar

Overall Rating: star

Pros: It arrived (several days late). Build quality looks good, paired up OK. Using with an android app on a Nexus One phone.

Cons: MS Security Essentials (not known for false positives) identified Trojan:Win32/Chiviper.B on the install CD when I ran USB_dongle/setupddd.exe.

Other Thoughts: Install cd also had some nice greasy fingerprints on the recording surface.

Bottomline: Don't install that driver unless you want to donate your computer to a zombie net.

Ownership verified by DX Works as advertised

Overall Rating: starstarstarstarstar

Pros: This is by far the cheapest price for a device like this anywhere. It works exactly as advertised and seems fairly compact given the size of similar products.

Cons: I believe another previous poster stated the device could use an led light just to indicate its on, and I completely agree. That's about the only gripe I have, but its certainly not a detractor from the product in the least. I would certainly buy it again.

Other Thoughts: I bought this product specifically for a project of mine. I must admit I have not used the included software myself, so I can not make a comment about that in particular. The fact that it even came with software was a bonus for me. But the hardware has worked as advertised out of the box!
Also kudos to DealExtreme for the great experience! Will buy again!

Bottomline: If you're looking for an extremely user-friendly easy-to-use obd-ii code reader, you may want to look at the more expensive products on the market. But if you're just looking for a cheap and great device to simply read your obd-ii port, no frills attached nor inferred, this is the product for you!

Pros: Works fine and very good price if you consider the other prices in USA.

Cons: I wasted so many hours to figure out because the software that comes with CD did not work with my Omnia with Windows Mobile 6.1 professional.
I got

Other Thoughts: If this unit had LED, it would be much better. I can tell if it is working somewhat or not.
I might put LED by myself.
I found documet about ELM327

Bottomline: I learned about ELM327 very well thanks to incomplete software.
