We have 2 of these and they work well with a Android tablet running torque

If you are trying to connect to a Td5, they will not work as the Td5 is using a Landrover unique protocol.. not obd2 compatible.
They work on Puma though. Edit.. as I hit submit.. I see the title for a Puma.. dohh. I just got this one in link below... I choose one that works on wifi though and works good. I just downloaded an app called Car Scanner. I have not used it much, but seems to be good. https://m.aliexpress.com/item/100500295025...amp;is_c=N 1988 90 Hard Top, 19J Diesel Turbo, Shire Blue - Restoration ongoing 2012 90 CSW, 2.2TDCI, Santorini Black |

I'd use this as an excuse for a BAS remote remap.
The obd tool you get is just brilliant.  |

It is most definitely on the list... I just need another zero and a multiplier of 6 and I'm there 
Definitely would like to go for a BAS 150 though. Not quite sure about the 170 yet. |

Check out Car Scanner. This morning I was playing about with setting up a dashboard. Screenshot from my dpf load 😱 (if anyone can comment if 41% is good enough?). You can set any type of gauge, digital or analogue and you can put as many gauges as you want... Click image to enlarge Still need to decide what I want to display. Not that I want to hijack Matts’ thread, but ideas are welcome. 1988 90 Hard Top, 19J Diesel Turbo, Shire Blue - Restoration ongoing 2012 90 CSW, 2.2TDCI, Santorini Black |

Another alternative is the OBDLink LX or MX+ , I have had the LX for several years and works well on the defender 2.2 and on many other vehicles I’ve used it on. However now the MX+ is available I would go for that if I were to purchase now as it has even better support for specific GM and ford codes plus iPad and iPhone support. They come with their own ( very good) phone app and laptop software but you can also run a range of apps like torque etc .
These also auto switch off so no bat drain, have secure Bluetooth, are good quality, fast in comms to display device but cost a fair bit. Having said that, permanently connecting a cheap ELM327 into expensive ECUs may not be a good idea long term, so it may be £’s well spent.
