Once you’ve learned a breathalyzer is a valuable purchase to ensure personal safety and the
safety of others, how do choose which model will meet your needs?
If you are interested in
getting the highest level of accuracy in your readings, our recommendation
is to spend the extra money on a Professional level breathalyzer, such as the
BACtrack S80
Pro, BACtrack S75 Pro, and BACtrack Element, that uses fuel cell sensor technology. These breathalyzers offer the same advanced
technology used by law enforcement for preliminary screenings for a fraction
of what they have previously cost. Law enforcement, substance abuse centers,
clinics and businesses typically purchase these models, although they are
often purchased for individual use too.
If you are more concerned
with alcohol detection, the presence of alcohol versus the precise
measurement of %BAC, a semiconductor oxide unit is likely satisfactory for
your needs. These models are often used for self-testing or testing friends
and family. The quality of these breathalyzers is far above novelty grade
breathalyzers and they are both affordable and accurate.
