Never heard of these before, just Googled them. Just curious, what is the advantage of this over an ELM327 Bluetooth OBD2 adapter and a cell phone? It seems to me that it's the exact same concept with fewer capabilities and a less attractive/capable gauge interface.
I use a PLX Kiwi adapter and the Torque Pro app for Android. If you want a gauge display, suction cup cell phone mounts are cheap.
That's a good question! Mostly because I have never heard of them. I'm gonna look into those real quick
I had one and it was pretty nice, gave me a little piece of mind with accurate readings.
Then it died one day and never turned back on.
@kkirwan71 had one in his NBS/NNBS and something in the OBD2 cable would short out and cause all kinds of electrical gremlins to show up.
As @bneilsen said. I had one on my 2000 Silverado nbs and something in it caused a short in my obd2 port causing the truck to randomly shut off and not want to restart

which are you two referring to? The scangauge/ultragauge? Or the bluetooth units df2x4 is talking about?

Above is the unit I use...not sure what changes there may have been over that time, but that one is still going for me!
