OBD-II (ELM-327) Bluetooth Dongle that is small & will auto shut-off

I want to leave my OBD-II dongle connected all the time.

Can anyone suggest an OBD-II bluetooth dongle that is small, works with my 2009 yaris and will power down after the car is turned off?

I can use an extender cable to hide the sensor if needed, but smaller is better.

Using TORQUE on an android phone as display.

Hmm, power is applied to the OBD11 socket all the time.

The way around this seems to be to cut pin 16 (the +12 volt supply) and connect this to the accessory circuit. It would probably be neater to do this with an extension cable so,you avoid cutting in to the ELM327 module.
