LEGO 9847 Bluetooth Dongle is a Mindstorms NXT accessory set released in 2006, containing 1 piece. It consists of a USB Bluetooth device used to enable wireless communication between LEGO MINDSTORMS NXT robots and a computer. The dongle allowed users to program or control an NXT brick without the standard blue USB cable, provided the system used compatible Bluetooth software on Windows or Mac OS. A direct USB connection to the NXT was still required on computers without Bluetooth support.

A new and sealed Bluetooth Dongle is currently valued at around $32. The average used price is $11 for those in good overall condition. If the forecast holds, a sealed copy should fetch about $32 this time next year, roughly 1% above today. The set was available for 60 months, from October 2007 to October 2012.

About Mindstorms NXT

NXT was the second generation of LEGO Mindstorms, released in July 2006 to replace the RCX of 1998. At its centre is the NXT Intelligent Brick, a small computer that runs the robot and takes signals from touch, light, sound and ultrasonic sensors, with three servo motors that can count their own turns. Robots are programmed on a computer with NXT-G, a drag-and-drop language built on LabVIEW from National Instruments, and the brick can talk to a phone or computer over Bluetooth.

NXT consists of 30 sets that ran from 2006 to 2011. As of today, 8527 Mindstorms NXT is the most valuable NXT set with an estimated new/sealed value of $463.
