Bluetooth OBD Reader for GX (1 Viewer)

It seems like they are all very similar (on amazon and ebay). Any recommendations?
Looking for one that I can just leave plugged in all the time.

I have the Veepack Mini Wifi $17 model and use OBD Fusion on my iPhone. They all kind of look the same to me, but this thing has worked flawlessly on several vehicles FWIW. I don't leave it plugged in though. My phone always connects to the Wifi and kills my cell data in the car before I realize it. Just keep it in the glove box.

Ultra Gauge offers theirs to connect to your phone.

I just use a Scan Gauge II. I have way too many things connected BT to my phone already with music and watch.

I worry that the OBD dongle doesn't draw down my car battery. I don't drive my GX daily and leave it parked for weeks at a time.

I am guessing that most OBD dongles draw very little current but their specs don't mention standby current. Just checking with other's experience.
