OBDii testers

Do you guy's have OBD2 testers ?

I use Ista and understand the possibility of a standard tester not picking things up, but we also have a Dodge GCV, I got recently a CX dongle for bimmercode and it does have software as an app, which is hmm, not fantastic.

I was looking the theseekone sk860.

It checkes DTC Lookup and Setup categories, it can Review, Print Data, BAT Check for monitoring the car's charging and battery. Which given my current woes and potentially going into winter may be useful for both cars.

Be good to sometimes just hook it up to the BM, without having to get my laptop out.

thoughts ? It's also a good price sub $100

I had bought it off ebay many years ago .I bought it to retrieve codes (of course you buy it for it, not for the purpose of making coffee lol ) in our Cadillac Fleetwood . I even forgot its brand name but it's Dactron or something like that

I have a fancy $500 ODB but honestly its not as good as my Carista bluetooth ODB. The only problem with Carista and Carly are that they require an annual subscription to use the app.
