OBD scanner recommendations

[Falko]

My Actron scanner died, or more accurately was killed by some exploding AA batteries. I'm in the market for a new one. What is everyone using?

Stand alone device? Laptop connect? Interface plug with a smart phone app?

Big bonus points if it can interface well with the Chrysler NGC.

Bluetooth module and Torque Pro. Works well enough for me for now. I leave it plugged in so when I get those stupid Chevy DBW "Reduced Engine Power" faults, I can clear it while coasting.

This is the tool that was recommended to me by the mechanic that instlled my LS. @3DCrawler
Idk a whole lot about it other than really checking codes and just reading some live data like water temperature.
Seems to be great but also seems like I gave $90 for it a couple months ago and now it's $56. My luck

That's more or less equivalent to a higher end actron. Live data, codes, etc but no programming. If you need a scanner that can program or edit settings, look into autel maxisys pro. (3k)
