Great for parties at home!

We entertain a lot. With a lot of alcohol. Now I don't worry about people who drink...they can check, and wait till they are within limits before getting in a car to drive home. Or have a designated driver take them home. We did find that if you have a swig of alcohol, then immediately test, you will test over the limits, but wait till the taste is out of your mouth, and it will test true. Or take a sip of water. Great product!
Easy to use, small. It just takes what seems like a long time to produce results although its something like 15 seconds or so. Overall, very please with. Would get 5 stars if the results showed sooner.
If we drink before going out we test. We don't know if the results would be the same as the sheriff's reading, but close enough to know when we should not drive. Why risk it? If we are out and have been drinking , we test to know if we should call a taxi. Why hurt someone, ourselves or get arrested? Easy to use....
Its a great device when you think your child has been drinking so you can stop him before he drives and also check them when they come home. Keeps them thinking if we are going to test them. Keeps them on alert because they do not know when or where the test will come.
I like that the display shows 3 decimal places. It resets quickly. This is the third breathalyzer I have owned and by far the best. Its quick and pretty quiet. I would highly recommend for the money. Sometimes it requires multiple attempts but it's not a big deal. Once you used it a couple times it's very easy to use.
