Not Discreet

I purchased this product with the intent of carrying it with me to monitor my BAC during nights out, as I tend to drink over my limit. However, there's no way I can sneak off to the bathroom to discreetly test my BAC because it makes loud beeping noises and is really obvious. There isn't a way to turn the sound off to my knowledge; I wish BACtrack would make this an option, or at least help me find a product that is more discreet.
On the multiple times I have used the product it has been consistent. The LED display appears to be faulty (not all the display lights work) which makes it difficult to decide on what number it is displaying. It is simple to use and good for a general idea of where you are at during the night.
I've had the Trace for about a month now, and overall it's a nice looking and easy to use device, but I'm not real sure of it's accuracy. I have nothing to test it against, but the few times I've used it out of curiosity it had said I'm under the legal limit of .08. I don't feel I was anywhere within safe limits to get behind the wheel with it reading only .05 and . 072. For the price, I'm a little disappointed because I feel I'm still left to my own judgement since I don't know if I trust this device.
Small but inconsistent, sound features do not alwa

A test can be performed but minutes later have substantial differences, +/_ .005 or more. Sometimes the countdown and start audio beeps sound, other times not.
