Inexpensive OBDII monitor and Code reader

I bought one of these just out of curiosity. It works great. I like the display better than DashHawk. It is bright and easy to read. It reads 51 OBDII values on the Sol and can display any 18 of them. You can set both visual and audible alarms on them. It does not do Data Logging. It reads and clears both active and pending trouble codes. You have to go to the website to get setup instructions, but they are simple. There are a couple of mounting options. I used the windshield mount. you can bend the arm to put it in an easy readable and unobtrusive position.
UltraGauge can display 75 possible gauges*. Gauges can easily be assigned to one of 6 positions on any page. The actual gauges available is vehicle dependent. If your vehicle supports any of the gauges listed, then the gauge will be available for display by UltraGauge.

Please note: UltraGauge currently does not support metric units.
I paid 76.00 including shipping.

The web site is

That's pretty cool. I just bought a bluetooth dongle off ebay and use an app on my phone. it works pretty well and i can use the phone's gps to record laps at autocross and see where i was faster.
