Add a modern sports-car-like digital dashboard to your car!

The ADD-LITE is an OBD based car digital dashboard to display your car's RPM, speed, coolant temp, voltage, max RPM, max speed...all in a sports-car-like instrument panel. It's futuristic and truly an useful tool that any car guy/girl will love it! We also offer completed version of ADD-PRO and the ADD-111R specifically for the Lotus Elise/Exige owners!

- Connecting via the inexpensive Bluetooth ELM327 OBD2 dongle. Please refer to your Bluetooth OBD2 dongle user manual and paired it with your phone first before launching the ADD-LITE.

- ADD-LITE will try to connect to the your phone's 1st paired Bluetooth device. If you have multiple paired devices, use "SETUP" to select the paired OBD device. (TIPS: make your OBD dongle the 1st paired device so the ADD-LITE will connect the OBD at start up automatically!)

- ADD-LITE starts at the NORMAL mode which shows all the useful and real-time information of your car's RPM, speed, max RPM, max speed, coolant temperature, voltage, fuel tank, throttle, and trip (if your car's ECU supports).

- ADD-LITE comes with another "EASY" mode - it shows a big and nice speedometer that you can easily glance and know your speed anytime. While RPM, max speed, trip, and time/date are logically displayed at smaller font on the top for easy-n-relaxing driving.

- ADD-LITE comes with a convenient SPEED ALERT function. You can configure the over-speed alert from the "SETUP" in the normal mode screen. You can turn on or off the alert with a simple touch of the "ALERT" button (in the normal mode screen).

- ADD-LITE comes with a configurable engine red-line setting. You can configure the RPM red-line via the "SETUP" so the red-line matches your car.

- ADD-LITE automatically set the red-line to 4000 rpm when the coolant temp is less than 80 degree Celsius as a reminder for you to warm up the car before any spirited driving.
