 Does not work July 2, 2008

within a week or so it completely stopped working. I hold down the button and it shows a solid red, meaning high alcohol concentration, even though no one is blowing into it.
 Good for only a few tries March 19, 2008

I got this device to test myself before I drove after drinking, like every other paranoid driver. It worked like a charm for about a month of two, then it ceased to calibrate when turned on, and stayed on the red <.08bac forever. So basically it became worthkess after a short while. But for fifteen bucks, what do you expect?
 Great for the price February 9, 2008

This was a great stocking stuffer and lots of fun throughout the Christmas party. We didn't have anything to calibrate the results so I'm not sure how accurate it is - but it seemed reasonable. Hopefully it will be a gentle reminder not to drive after drinking.
One note - don't take a big gulp of alcohol and immediately test yourself. You'll show as highly intoxicated even after just one drink. Wait a few seconds - that seemed to produce more reasonable results.
Inexpensive, but didn't last very long. January 14, 2008

This tester seemed to work OK at first, but only lasted for about a week. Now it seems to have lost calibration and is basically useless. Save your money and buy a better unit!

I would not trust any device, as far as drinking and driving. However this little tester really does work. I drank one Vodka drink and the tester gave me a yellow light. Red is the next level up.
I tried everything i.e. brushing my teeth, eating candy, even drinking milk. No fooling this tester. The light remained yellow.
Best advice don't drink and drive! duh! I don't think the CHP would let you off the hook, if you told he or she that your tester said it was ok to drive.
