Take a look at this product on Amazon: Veepeak OBDCheck BLE Bluetooth OBD II Scanner Auto Diagnostic Scan Tool for iOS & Android, Bluetooth 4.0 Car Check Engine Light Code Reader amzn.to/3ThQiug
First off, I absolutely love your channel and your great in depth reviews, especially your Tesla to J1772 adapters. You're one of the only adapter reviewers that actually check the locking mechanisms, do temperature tests, and explain the dust & water resistance ratings. Could you start reviewing J3400 to CCS1 adapters please? Ok, now to my actual reason for commenting lol. If I'm using an OBD2 dongle do I really need the ABRP Premium subscription?
Thanks for the awesome comment. I appreciate the kind words. I'm hoping to start reviewing more DC charging adapters soon. You don't need the Premium version for the OBD2 connectivity, but the premium is nice to have with the Android Auto and Apple Car Play functionality. There is also a list of recommended dongles on ABRP's site. Thanks for watching the channel.
Great review thanks I do have a couple of questions . I have a 2023 Genesis GV 60 should i go for the new BLE + 4.0 what is the difference compared to the none + , is it ok to leave plugged in all the time it would be nice to be able to check battery temp, and last are you using the free or paid ABRP as I am thinking of getting it for travelling. Thanks again .
If you don't mind spending the extra few bucks, I would recommend the BLE+. The only real difference is support for ELM327 v2.2 instead of just v1.4 for the BLE. You can leave it plugged in all of the time, but just be aware that it may stay powered on, even if the car is off. So I wouldn't leave it plugged in for long amounts of time while the car sits as it may drain the 12v battery. I have the paid version of ABRP currently, though you can use the free version to connect through the Bluetooth OBD2. Good questions and thanks for watching.
@@TechMotoring Oh wow thank you so much for such a fast reply , I will order the + now its on sale here in Canada amazon $46.00 , I am going to watch your ABRP video later . Great info i will subscribe to your channel.
Can you use the torque pro app with this obd Bluetooth? I really would like to use the taught app because of its beautiful interface and customizable gauges
If you don't mind spending the extra few bucks, I would recommend the BLE+. The only real difference is support for ELM327 v2.2 instead of just v1.4 for the BLE. If you're not sure if you need the extra functionality then it won't hurt to spend the extra few bucks to future proof yourself. Thanks for watching.
Can I use (BT/WiFi) to simply register my BMW X5 battery? Works with ProTool? (Changing battery requires communicating to car’s control module the battery specs, amperage, etc.) Thanks much!
That is a great question. It looks like it can work with ProTool, however it doesn't appear to be a recommended adapter by them. So I can't be certain that it will work as you intend.
You're welcome. Also check out some forums about ProTool. Maybe some other users will have input on which adapter they have success with. Thanks again for watching.

Yes, you absolutely can.

You can take a look at OBDLink products. I have the OBDLink MX+ and really do like it. You can take a look at it here. amzn.to/47X09e3
Does anyone know if this will work on a 2022 ram 1500 and if so, which app to use?
Can I connect to ipad it's possible? Tkx you 🤗
As long as the app is available on iPad then it should work fine.
Bought a new cluster for my truck what app is needed for IOS .
Should I get VeePeak BLE or BLE+ ?
If you don't mind spending the extra few bucks, I would recommend the BLE+. The only real difference is support for ELM327 v2.2 instead of just v1.4 for the BLE.

Do you know an good app to use to kia ev6?like the one you use to your hyundai
I don't know of an app specifically for the EV6, but depending on what you are looking to do, Torque or CarScanner work well.
Super, thanks, i will get the veepeak Bluetooth 4.0 +
Hi, Can it read air bag and abs faults.? Thanks!
It really depends on the application that you use on your phone, but it should be able to read ABS and airbag codes.

I used a few in the video. The first one was canioniq, then I used A Better Routeplanner, and the last one was Torque. Thanks for watching.
