Supported Adapter Link

For Bluetooth Low Energy, search "LELink" at ebay, you will see it. You can also find it at the outdoor-apps site at http://www.outdoor-apps.com/enginelink.html

For WIFI adapter, search "ELM 327 WIFI" at ebay or Amazon, as long as it is ELM327 and WIFI, it should work.

EngineLink works with Bluetooth Low Energy adapter right away, it does auto configure, auto connect.
