    If you have an aftermarket ELD and it actually works good for you, is consistent, and is one you can count on... do you mind sharing the make and model, thanks

    Everyone seems to have problems with the blue tooth eld's.
    Haven't heard of problems with hard wired units.

    I use TransFlo T-7 ELD. Isn’t hard wired, isn’t Bluetooth, does a good job, I can count on it.

    I’m using the VDO roadlog unit.
    It was a little expensive but it’s cave man simple to use and works well.
    I was lucky enough to get mine when they were still abords.
    Now when you buy them they are ELDs only.
