This little gadget uses OBD2 and a smartphone to measure the trailer weight, tongue weight, etc. That's important numbers to keep towing safe, especially in my incoming hybrid Mav. It sounds efficient.

Does anyone have some experience with it? I am thinking of buying one before the autumn clean. I will cut some trees. It is a good time to use it on my current car for testing.

Adjustable height is an excellent feature for safe towing. Though I think the wight-safe is way beyond the Mav's level. Its scale can measure up to 2,200 lbs, while the Mav can only handle 200lbs tongue weight.
