I wanted to get this to monitor the various sensors in my project car, a Mazda RX-8, using Torque on Android. This little thing just plugs into the OBD2 port, and then you go to your Bluetooth and select it. There's a pin that stumped me at first, but upon referencing the manual, I discovered it was just 1234.
The product is great, well made for the price, and works with my phone perfectly. I have successfully used this reader in both my RX-8 and my CT200h, both of which it is plug and play, working and reading the sensors great.
My only gripe is due to the OBD2 port always being live with 12V from the battery, regardless of ignition status, I need to unplug it every time I stop the car to prevent it from draining the battery. Not the product's fault, as this is the nature of (at least my 2) cars. However, an on-off switch might have been a welcome addition.
Overall, I can confirm it works great with Torque on Android and with my RX-8 and CT200h. A product like this is pretty much a must-have, if you're into cars, as it lets you read (accurate) data from all the various sensors on your car's CAN bus.
