AlcoHAWK PT500 Breathalyzer Reviews
| 25 of 26 people found the following review helpful  Excellent breathalyzer, By This review is from: AlcoHAWK PT500 Breathalyzer (Health and Beauty) After negatively reviewing and returning the BACTRACK breathalyzer, I ordered this one as a replacement, hoping for better results. Yes, it is a lot more expensive, but it works and it works great. It has several settings and keeps count of the total number of readings. So far it has seemed to be very accurate. The only minor downside is that although the blow time can be set from 3 - 8 seconds, it always resets to 5 seconds every time the unit is turned off and back on.UPDATE (4/2/10): Well this breathalyzer has become the hit of several parties. It's becomes quite the entertainment piece and is also a great way for figuring out who is wasted and shouldn't be driving.

If you blow in it right after a tequila shot, your BAC will read really high since all that alcohol is right in your mouth and hasn't been absorbed fully into your bloodstream.

There is no giant headline telling you that at the point of purchase. 15 of 16 people found the following review helpful Excellent alcohol tester, This review is from: AlcoHAWK PT500 Breathalyzer (Health and Beauty) The Alcohawk PT500 alcohol tester is as good as a much larger machine costing twice as much. I usedto have a much larger fuel cell machine until it was stolen out of my car when I brought my car to be serviced.I recently bought the PT 500 from Amazon. The accuracy is listed as .005 + or - at 05%. I would say it's probably more like + or - .001. It quickly always gives the same values and maybe down .001 as the kidneys uses the alcohol. This machine is necessary if you drink and drive afterwards. A wonderful machine. |
