cooflar Posted June 15, 2021 Share Posted June 15, 2021 Hi! I'm waiting for my first EV to arrive during summer, a MG ZS EV. After reading about it, I'd like to use ABRPs live data feature for my longer trips. What OBD2-bluetooth-dongle do you use for it? I've been searching for one with auto-sleep mode as to not unecessarily drain the 12v system (as I'm lazy and probably will forget to disconnect/shut it off manually). Is this actually needed?

dudule Posted June 15, 2021 Share Posted June 15, 2021 I had the same criteria - so I opted for the OBDLink LX. It is a bluetooth Dongle which allows a dedicated pairing - hence there is no danger that someone else is connecting because of the standard pairing 1111 or 1234. This is an abolute NO GO. When this OBD Dongle is in an idle mode the power consumption is 2mA - nothing to be afraid of. Disadvantage: this device is rather expensive in Europe: around 75,- Euro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
