Will the one in post 2 work like the Kiwi?

As in, auto off feature, etc?

Vast price difference.

they all work the same

all they do is "read" what the computer in your car is telling it to "read"

the blue tooth devices are nice as you can buy a nice app and go from there..some apps are even free.

I bought a $40 OBDII code reader and it does the basics.

The higher up you go the more features you get. Some will allow upgrades to newer cars. Others will allow you to turn off air bag lights.

The OBDII port will turn off when the car is off
