Worth Every Penny

First, I was pleasantly surprised by how small and light the unit is. The photo on the website with the cop holding it forward makes it look larger than it really is. While it will easily slip in your pocket, I keep it tucked into the cup holder of my console in the car. Regarding functionality: stupid-easy to use; fast "prime" time (@15 seconds between uses, which includes 5 seconds to display last results); easy-read-display; simple config options (warning beep at X level; blow duration; blow intensity; I recommend just leaving things as factory default for personal use - except maybe the warning beep if you hit a specific level. I set mine to half the legal limit so I can factor for any potentially delayed rise in BAC after test). All-in-all a great unit that is well worth peace of mind that it offers. I'm going to get another few for my daughters for Christmas!

I now know when to drive and when not to, I cannot go through another dui ever. I got lucky it happened out of state but still realize I have to be responsible when I go out, and having this essential tool is money well spent.

High Quality Breathalyzer

Great for testing before you decide to drive. Instructions say to wait 20 min after eating or drinking before using it or damage may occur. It also says to have it recalibrated every 6 to 12 months. Than it says as often as monthly if you use it everyday. What does this cost ? I don't know. So far I have used it 23 times and have not followed all of the above directions and it works fine.

Best Purchase Ever!

I purchased this for my husband to eliminate any arguments we may have regarding his ability to "drive" home after a night out. He has learned to judge how much he can drink safely and if there is any doubt - he just takes out the tester and has some more water, or gives me a call. Best investment ever - and he Loves it!

My group of friends are an active bunch. We do not want an alcohol related incident to spoil a great day. This unit has helped prevent a bad ending to a memorable event.

Amazing Product!

We often have get together's in our home for friends and family. This product is so helpful in determing if someone we care about is safe to drive. Everyone knows they will be tested before they leave and understands if we take the keys. I highly recommend this product!

Works great!

I bought this because after playing sports, I might have a few beers with the team. This device is teaching me to know how close to the limit I am just by how my head feels. I believe it's very accurate. Small discreet carrying case. I leave it on my car seat when I know I'll need it, so I don't forget to use it. It's quick, very easy, discrete, and tells you if you didn't breathe hard enough into it, like it did when I tried to fool it. It's like a friend who knows when to warn you not to drive.
