I didnt know where to put this so I put it in general discussion. I have a Bluetooth enabled stereo for my car and the car belongs to my brother and me. ever since we bought the stereo, my phone has been the only one connected to the stereo. in order for my brother to connect it just takes to long. Here is what I am asking. Is there a product that connects to the stereo via Bluetooth and you can connect the two phones to the device, also via Bluetooth and have a switch that determines which phone is connected. kind of like this. I would preferably like to buy this on eBay. thanks for any help finding such a product.

there isn't such a thing. most bluetooth controllers can have multiple slaves stored to their memory/history, but they only connect to one device of one type at a time. for example, you can't connect 18 bluetooth speakers to a single phone. but in the phone UI you can select which of the 18 you want to connect to, because it shows it's known devices. 

 

if your radio isn't a very good one then it probably only stores one device at a time. Period. 

We can't Benchmark like we used to, but we have our ways. One trick is to shove more GPUs in your computer. Like the time I needed to NV-Link, because I needed a higher HeavenBench score, so I did an SLI, which is what they called NV-Link back in the day. So, I decided to put two GPUs in my computer, which was the style at the time. Now, to add another GPU to your computer, costs a new PSU. Now in those days PSUs said OCZ on them, "Gimme 750W OCZs for an SLI" you'd say. Now where were we? Oh yeah, the important thing was that I had two GPUs in my rig, which was the style at the time! They didn't have RGB PSUs at the time, because of the war. The only thing you could get was those big green ones.

If the car has Bluetooth 4.1, you should be able to. But it likely does not have that so you would be out of luck.

Maybe check if there are wired connections in your car, like a 3,5mm input or maybe even USB

The probably is something like that, my car switches automatically so I don't know but why not just use AUX?
