Speedemissions, Inc. Announces its Newest App CARbongaBT -- Will
Market Driver Evaluation Bluetooth Device to Operate App
ATLANTA, Nov. 29, 2012 /PRNewswire/
-- Speedemissions, Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: SPMI), a leading
vehicle emissions testing and safety inspections company with 38
stores in Atlanta, Houston, St.
Louis and Salt Lake City
today announced that its newest version of CARbonga,
CARbongaBT is now available in the Apple® app store.
The CARbongaBT app along with its new Bluetooth Device,
gives drivers an x-ray of their vehicle's emissions and safety
codes. In addition to operating the app, this Bluetooth device has
driver evaluation, vehicle maintenance and fuel economy provisions.
Both the CARbongaBT app and the Bluetooth device can be used
on multiple vehicles making it a very low cost way to diagnose your
car's emission problem and more.
The device is a plug and play adapter that taps into the vast
amounts of information available in today's cars. There are two
unique features which make this device different than similar
products on the market. First, it captures and stores driving &
trip information for over a year using its patent pending
technology. Next is the size. It is incredibly compact with a width
of 1.8 inches, height of 1.38 inches and depth of just 1 inch,
making it an easy install in the OBD (On-board-diagnostic) port of
any 1996 or newer car or truck. It allows car owners to see stored
data on their personal computer.
Delivery of the product will begin in early 2013 and retail for
$69.99. It will be available for
purchase at CARbonga.com, Speedemissions.com and in the
Speedemissions emission testing stores. The CARbongaBT app
sells for $4.99.
Rich Parlontieri, President/CEO
stated, "This is a project on which we've been working for quite
some time. And one that took a lot of energy, patience and
resources. So obviously we're very excited to be able to have this
Bluetooth device available to operate our CARbongaBT app and to
sell on the open market. Plus, the Bluetooth device offers a
significant benefit for parents, who care about keeping their
family, especially teenage children and the car they're driving
safe. It's a really great 'peace-of-mind' tool when using the
CARbongaBT app".
