This software should work with most ELM327-compatible hardware (including the behemoth of available *clones*). In general, I recommend the Bluetooth 4.0 devices, since they seems to have a much better quality compared to the WiFi adapters. Moreover, they're much more convenient as you don't have to switch the WiFi network. Note that since iOS is lacking the Bluetooth `rfcomm` protocol, this library will **not** work with Bluetooth 3.0 adapters.

* Carista Bluetooth OBD2
* FIXD OBD-II Scan Tool (2nd Gen)
* LELink Bluetooth Low Energy
