Best OBD2 Bluetooth scanner?

I have been using the ELM 327 Bluetooth adapter with my Torque app. I've had it for a couple of months and it just stopped working. Just a flashing blue light and that's it. I'm hoping to get another unit that will be better and faster. You guys have any suggestions?

both are slower than a direct connect (like Zeitronix) but if you're just looking for signal and checking things they're fine

Just bought it through Amazon Prime. Should have it Wednesday. Measure your head in centimeters and you'll get a better fit with your helmet.

I can introduce one ELM327 Bluetooth OBD2, it is very cheap and easy to use.
