CURT has introduced a Bluetooth-enabled, smartphone-compatible mobile towing scale called BetterWeigh. This innovative, compact device plugs into a vehicle’s diagnostic port (OBD-II) and measures the real-time weight of the vehicle and trailer, cargo / payload, tongue weight, pin weight, weight distribution and trailer brake gain, displaying them right on an Apple or Android phone.
The patented BetterWeigh mobile towing scale (No. 51701) is powered by TowSense technology, an accelerometer that measures changes in force and acceleration to provide a live readout of the weights associated with towing.
BetterWeigh also has no installation requirements. It plugs into the OBD-II port, below the steering wheel, and wirelessly connects to a smartphone with Bluetooth and a free, downloadable App.
BetterWeigh works for bumper pull towing setups, gooseneck towing and fifth wheel towing. The weight distribution feature streamlines the weight distribution hitch setup process.
