Best bluetooth OBD dongle for a RaspberryPi disco project?

Hi,

Im looking for a small, cheap OBD dongle that Ill interface with a Raspberry Pi Zero. Just looking to be able to run one of the OBD things on the PI, but wondered if anyone has any recoemndations for ones that work OK on Pi, or Android or Iphone etc. Even if its just that its unobtrusive etc?

Also Im guessing that it would cause current drain if left plugged into the car e..g the OBD port is always on as opposed to ignition switched.

Can't help on suggesting a dongle but yes ODB ports are usually permanent live - I flattened the battery on my BMW by leaving a Bluetooth dongle in over night
