I can't believe that bars are not required to have one of these awesome gadgets. I am always confident when leaving the bar that I will make it home without losing my license. I love this thing.
Used this around 250 times in about 6 months. Has been really helpful to determine when I'm above/below 0.08. It's been consistent until the last couple weeks, I've noticed some discrepancies when testing twice within 5 minutes, which means it's time to ship it to be recalibrated
I don't like taking chances, and the BACtrack Element allows me the confidence to never risk losing my license or worse. Small investment for Complete Peace of Mind!!
So far as ease of use, and general utility, I have found it perfectly satisfactory. I would like to have some way to test the calibration. Having to return it for recalibration is a big a pain. Another issue with returning it, is the question, if one were paranoid enough to think this way, that it would be a rather clever way to collect DNA samples. The worst part, however, is having no way to know whether what it reads would match what a real police device would read.

I purchased my BACtrack Element Breathalyzer in Dec. 2013 and have used it several times prior to leaving social events. I am very pleased with the analysis and the accuracy the unit provides me. I highly recommend this unit.
