Default looking to get wideband

Im looking to get a wideband but dont have a ton of money to spend. I waslooking at the lm-1 for $370 or the lc-1 for $270. Whats the differance between the 2? The lm-1 has a big box for data and the lc-1 has a gauge only. Isnt that all you need is a gauge? Im just getting started in the tuning end of things so bear with me. Or the FAST one for $425. Can you fill me in on what i should be looking for. Im pretty sure the lc-1 is all ill need...... or is it?

I'd recommend the LM-1. It's what I run. Easy to put in and pull out of the car. Easy to hook up to my tuning software. All around good product.

The LM1 is a portable, hand held device. You have to install the WBO2 each time you want to use it.
The LC1 is a permanent mount device that stays in the car.
Both can output data to your PC for data logging.
It is independent of the OBD software, so you can still log data to your PC.
