Om man tar priset i betraktning är AlcoSense Pro utan tvekan den mest avancerade alkoholmätaren  på marknaden. Det är resultatet av 3 års forskning och utveckling, AlcoSense Pro (och dess storebror, Ultra) ger dig extrem noggrannhet, många funktioner och användarvänlighet på en ny nivå. Vinnare 2016 av Red Dot Design Award.

AlcoSense tillverkas och designas i Storbritannien och är utrustad med patenterade nya funktioner. Något som gör att alkoholmätaren ligger på en nivå mycket nära de mätare polisen använder.

 

Professionell Noggrannhet

Pro har vi lagt till på grund av att alkoholmätaren använder en professionell bränslecellsensor på 121 mm², den är identisk med sin storebror AlcoSense Ultra som ligger på 200 mm² vilket är det som används i polisens alkoholmätare i flera brittiska, amerikanska och europeiska länder. Du får oöverträffad noggrannhet med Pro för ett bra pris, noggrannheten är nästan dubbel i förhållande till AlcoSense Elite

pro sensor

Avancerat provtagningssystem med temperaturkompensation

AlcoSense Pro har ett avancerat provtagningssystem för att säkerställa att endast djup lungluft (den mest exakta delen av andningen) mäts. Den använder avancerade sensorer för att mäta utandningstrycket, flödeshastighet och andningsvolymen, som andas ut. Avläsningen sker när 1 liter luft har andats ut, vilket säkerställer att provet alltid blir så exakt som möjligt. För att förbättra noggrannheten finjusteras avläsningarna efter temperaturen. Dessa sensorer gör det också möjligt för Pro att erbjuda den smarta funktionen BlowCoach ™

Alcosense Pro

BlowCoach™

De flesta problem, när man gör alkoholmätningar, orsakas av att du antingen blåser för hårt, för mjukt eller inte tillräckligt länge – något som med vissa produkter kan detta också orsaka felaktiga resultat. BlowCoach ™ är en patenterad teknik från AlcoSense som gör det enkelt att göra en perfekt mätning varje gång!

Pro ger dig nämligen feedback i realtid på skärmen om hur du blåser. Du ska hålla visaren på den övre mätaren i mitten och fortsätta att blåsa tills den nedre mätaren är full.

Om resultatet skulle bli fel, är det här Pro är riktigt smart. Genom att använda inbyggda sensorer kan Pro berätta exakt varför testet misslyckades och ger dig skräddarsydda tips så att du snabbt kan få en rättfärdigt test nästa gång.

BlowCoach ™ minskar dramatiskt felmarginalen när du använda alkoholmätaren och gör att den blir enkel att använda.

Eliminerar felaktig avläsning med för lågt resultat.

EVarje alkoholmätare har en noggrannhets-tolerans på +/- X.XX av avläsningen - ju lägre tal, desto mer exakt är alkoholtestarens mätning. AlcoSense Pro har en smart inbyggd programvara för att eliminera felaktig avläsning - dvs. istället för att ha en tolerans på +/- 0,1 ‰ BAC, är AlcoSense Pros tolerans + 0,10 ‰ BAC, -0,00 ‰ BAC. Det betyder att Pro alltid avläser resultatet som lite högre, än lägre, för att vara på den säkra sidan – resultatet är mer än dubbelt så exakt som den prisbelönta AlcoSense Elite.

Bokstavligen alla gränsvärden i hela världen.

Med ett enda klick fungerar AlcoSense Pro med vilken gräns som helst, var som helst i världen! Välj bara land / region från menyn där du  ska köra och använd AlcoSense Pro patentsökta teknik, som lever upp till lokal lagstiftning. Alkoholmätaren använder den gräns och måttenhet som gäller där du befinner dig och använder  blodomvandling för att möjliggöra korrekta avläsningar av promillen i antingen blodalkohol eller andningsalkohol. Om gränsvärdet skulle ändras kan enheten uppdateras genom en programnedladdning från vår supportsida. Perfekt för dig som gränspendlar och till och med för resor mellan kontinenter.

Om du vill ställa in en egen  gräns som du väljer själv, kanske till exempel hälften av gränsvärdet för att köra, kan du även göra det. Välj "Gräns" från huvudmenyn för att justera till den gräns du önskar.

 

Prisbelönt produktdesign

AlcoSense Pro och Ultra vann det prestigefyllda Red Dot Award-priset 2016 för produkternas design. Red Dot Design Award är ett internationellt pris för produktdesign som delas ut av Red Dot Design Museum i Essen, Tyskland. År 2016 utvärderades totalt 5 216 produkter för att få utmärkelsen av en jury som bestod av 41 oberoende designproffs. Tidigare vinnare av priset är bl a Apple 2001, BMW 2007, LG 2008, Porsche Design 2012, Lenovo 2013, Bose 2014 och Dell 2015. Du kan ta reda på mer genom att klicka på vår utmärkelsessida för alkoholmätare.

Red Dot Design Award Winner 2016

Enkelhet och precision är de kärnvärden som AlcoSense Pro återger från grunden genom sin produktdesign.

Detaljerade resultat som är enkla att förstå

AlcoSense Pro har en fullfärgad 1,8 tum (48 mm) TFT-skärm som ger tydliga och detaljerade avläsningar av din alkoholnivå. Du kan välja avläsning av utandning eller blod (mg / L eller µg / 100 ml) eller blod (% BAC eller ‰ BAC). Om du är nära eller över din valda gräns kommer Pro att varna dig för att inte köra bil.

Nedräkningstimer som visar tiden till du blir nykter och alarmfunktion för nytt test

AlcoSense Pro beräknar till och med hur lång tid det kan ta tills du är nykter och visar det samtidigt med resultatet av din mätning, se bild ovan och nedan. Vill du ha en påminnelse om när du ska testa dig igen senare? Inga problem, tryck bara på larmikonen så kommer Pro att meddela dig när det är dags för ett nytt testa igen senare.

Minnesfunktion

Pro lagrar 128 testresultat med både datum och tid för mätningarna.

Bakgrundsbelyst "Twin" blåserörsreceptor

Pro har en bakgrundsbelyst blåserörsreceptor som gör det  enkelt att sätta på ett nytt blåsrör även i svagt ljus. Pro fungerar med både "Pro" -munstyckena som har en enkelriktad ventil för att eliminera förorening från tidigare tester för ultimat noggrannhet, och med de "vanliga" munstyckena som används till AlcoSense Lite och Elite.

Omkalibreringsvarning

Alla alkoholmätare kräver omkalibrering efter en period av användning. AlcoSense Pro har en branschledande kalibreringsperiod på 12 månader från första gången du använder den. För att förbättra tillförlitligheten och användarvänligheten påminner AlcoSense Pro om att kalibrera om efter 11 månaders användning. När kalibreringen löper ut är det bara att skicka mätaren till oss så kommer vi att kalibrera den åt dig med hjälp av specifika andningssimulatorer som polisen använder. Vi returnerar mätaren till dig inom 5 arbetsdagar.

Tempraturvarning

Om en alkoholmätare används under förhållanden som avviker från mätarens normala driftstemperatur, kan du få felaktiga avläsningar. Temperaturen kan påverka kvaliteten på reaktionen inuti sensorn. För din säkerhet och ditt skydd kommer AlcoSense Pro att varna dig om enheten används i temperaturer som som avviker från 5 ° C ~ 40 ° C och påverkar kvaliteten på mätningarna (notera att driftstemperaturen är enhetens temperatur, inte den omgivande lufttemperaturen). Detta betyder att, till skillnad från konkurrerande varumärken, kommer Pro aldrig att låta dig utföra ett test om det finns risk för att få ett opålitligt resultat.

Mättnadsskydd

Till skillnad från konkurrerande varumärken skyddar AlcoSense Pro dig också från felaktigheter orsakade av "Sensormättnad". Sensormättnad kan påverka alla alkoholmätare, inklusive polisens mätare och uppstår när extremt höga alkoholnivåer blåses direkt in i sensorn. Normalt händer detta när ett andningstest utförs strax efter att man har druckit, när alkohol fortfarande finns i munnen. Sensorn blir överbelastad, så kallad ”mättnad” uppstår. Avläsningar som tas efter detta kan vara opålitliga tills sensorn har återställs. För din säkerhet och trygghet kommer AlcoSense Pro då att gå in i ett skyddsläge som gör att sensorn kan återhämta sig innan ytterligare tester tillåts, för att säkerställa att potentiellt opålitliga avläsningar inte uppstår.

Garanterad kvalitet & tillförlitlighet

AlcoSense Pro tillverkas i enlighet med ISO13485, riktmärket för kvalitetssystem för medicintekniska produkter. Efter kalibrering testas varje enhet tre gånger. På så vis säkerställer vi noggrannheten innan den lämnar fabriken, vilket betyder att Pro är en enhet du kan lita på.

8/10 rating - Smooth and precise

“Simple, smooth and gives very good measurement results…”

+ Very flexible and intuitive device that is completely self-explanatory.
+ Measurements go fast and are very good precision in (albeit not class-leading, so margin in the right direction)
+ Pro features like the exhalation guide and estimated time to sobriety are nice features, which are easily worth the price step up from Excel (which lacks this).


 


"Betyg & Omdöme: 9/10 

En snabb, lättbegriplig och tydlig alkomätare med bränslecell som enligt uppgift ska vara lika exakt som exempelvis polisens utrustning. Priset kan tyckas saftigt, men rattfylla kostar mer. Och är betydligt mer korkat.”

The AlcoSense Pro came second to the AlcoSense Excel in the 2016 Auto Express breathalyser Group Test, featuring ten breathalysers from 6 different brands! Testing under lab and real world conditions they concluded:

"Spend £50 more than on the AlcoSense Excel and you get quite a bit more with the Pro. It topped our accuracy tests by a small margin from the Excel. For the next step up, look no further than the Pro."

"The AlcoSense Pro and Ultra have been awarded the international distinction of the Red Dot Award for exceptional product design against competition from multinationals including, Dell, Lenovo, LG, Apple, Logitech and many more. A total of 5,214 products from 57 nations were assessed by a jury of 41 independent designers, design professors and specialist journalists to decide the winners of the 2016 Red Dot Product Design Award, with the AlcoSense Pro and Ultra breathalysers winning the “Red Dot Award: Product Design”.

Red Dot has been an internationally recognised design award since its inception in 1955 and is recognised as a quality label for excellent product design. Past prize-winners include Siemens in 1995, Apple in 2001, BMW in 2007, LG in 2008, Porsche in 2012, Lenovo in 2013, Bose in 2014; and Dell in 2015.

Designed in the UK, the AlcoSense Pro & Ultra are the culmination of 3 years R&D and reflects AlcoSense’s values of simplicity, functionality and precision. The result is a breathalyser with near Police level accuracy and several patented innovations which bring a level of performance & ease of use previously unseen in the industry.

The product’s external design also impressed the jury by reflecting these values in a refined the external form with precise split lines and slide action with hidden mechanism, invisible battery compartment and backlit mouthpiece hole for use in low light conditions."


Sunday Times Breathalyzer Review

Rating: ★★★★★

The test involved using a machine to pump vapour from a solution of alcohol and water (using a human test subject introduces inconsistencies) into a Draeger police evidential breathalyser, which is used at police stations (they offer an industry-best ±0.03‰ BAC), and immediately after running the same test with the Pro.

The results: 

  • Draeger Alcotest 9510: 0.312mg/l
  • AlcoSense Pro: 0.32mg/l

The AlcoSense Pro got impressively close to the benchmark police evidential breathalyser. 

In addition, helpful features of the Pro include colour-coded results (red being over the limit), a backlit tube connector, the amusingly-named BlowCoach (shows in realtime whether you're blowing too soft or hard to get an accurate reading), and a handy Time Until Sober reading.

The Pro also works abroad as it includes a database of legal limits in various countries/regions — you simply tell it where you are and it'll do the rest.

the AlcoSense Pro appears to be a good investment for any law-abiding driver, especially during the Christmas party season, to make sure you're not caught out the morning after. The alternative could ruin your life.

AlcoSense Pro - AutoExpress Hot Kit

 

10th February 2016

"The sleek Alcosense Pro is handy and simple to use, with a high-spec fuel-cell sensor that gives almost the same accuracy as police kit. The sensor has accounted for a 10 per cent tolerance, to prevent giving an under-reading. It also helps control breath flow, so you don’t breathe too hard, too softly or not long enough – all explained on the hi-res colour TFT screen. If you’re over the limit, it’ll advise how long to wait until you’re sober. EXACTLY when are you safe to drive again the morning after a night out drinking? There’s no real certainty, so investing in a personal breathalyser is one way to be sure."

The Guardian Breathalyzer Review

"Designed in the UK, both breathalysers offer levels of accuracy, reliability and consistency that we as consumers have not been able to access until now."

"The units have several excellent features. They are pre-loaded with all the different limits in every country, so if travelling in Europe, for instance, you wouldn’t be caught out by different levels when crossing borders. Also, they feature an ‘estimated time until sober’ with an alarm that alerts you to re-test again when it is likely you will be safe to drive. The AlcoSense Pro costs £129.99 (£149.99 from February 2016) and the Ultra is £249.99 – which isn’t cheap but considering the alternatives could be a bargain."

Scottish Sun Breathalyzer Review

 

"An AlcoSense Pro breathalyser could be the smartest gift you buy this year. The Pro knows it is in Scotland, knows the limit and can even tell you when you can next drive. It uses a 121mm2 version of the 200mm2 “Fuel Cell” sensor used in several UK police forces. That sounds technical but this machine even gives you a lesson on how to give a breath sample properly with its BlowCoach mechanism. It doesn’t get any easier than that. — so there are no excuses for being over the limit."

"Just how accurate are home breathalyzers? We test one against a Police-spec unit.

We tested it [AlcoSense Pro] scientifically (not in the pub, honest) with some control alcohol measured to read just below the UK’s 35ml drink-drive limit. Tested on the sort of super-accurate unit the Police will use at the station for your conviction, we found our test unit [the AlcoSense Pro] read almost exactly the same as the Police device.

Jag köpte en Alcosense Pro innan jul och den har hittills fungerat utmärkt. Bra info via displayerna gör det svårt att göra fel. Enda nackdelen skulle vara att den behöver tre minuters vila mellan blåsningarna. Men det är bara ett problem om man är flera som ska blåsa.

Super easy

by Donnydingel on 2020-08-07

I was about to buy the "little brother", But it was all sold out. So I bought the bit more expensive pro. I mean, It's is much to pay at once, But compared to Saved life and/or damage to the car, It's super cheap!

The setup was a breeze, easy and quick. One thing that was wierd was the warning that you could not change date and Time after it being set. Why?

The usage is super easy. The live feedback about how to blow is super smart and easy! Quick feedback about the result. Like the warnings and aprox time to sober (not 100% accurate, But Nice reference).

Snabb och smidig

by Malte on 2020-08-06

Har testat ett par alcomätare sen tidigare. Har nu införskaffat en Pro och måste säga att det är en av de mest lättanvända och smidigaste jag provat. Man behöver inte blåsa som en galning, och svaret kommer direkt. Ingen väntetid.
Även positivt att ländernas värden finns förinställda.
Det enda som jag kan vara lite negativt till är att den inte kommer med någon typ av förvaringspåse/låda till det relativt höga priset, utan att den måste köpas som tillbehör.
Men överlag mycket nöjd med inköpet. Känner mig trygg i att uppmätta resultatet stämmer. Och det är ju faktiskt det som är viktigast.

Great piece of kit.

by Shinyredcar on 2018-10-15

I’ve had the cheaper ones and had no faith in them. This is different, it’s not a toy and won’t let you just see how high you can get the number when stupidly drunk with friends. It can be adjusted for whichever country you are in and is extremely accurate.Personally, I only need it for the morning after as I’d never take the car out if I’m drinking, so this gives me the piece of mind to just get on, without having to worry about being stopped.Expensive, but worth it.

Essential for anyone who drinks alcohol and has a driving licence.

by P. J. Jenks on 2018-05-01

Designed and engineered in the UK, this little machine is simple and works well.Why did I chose this one? It uses the same measuring technology as the ones used by the police in may areas, so it is mist likely to give a similar reading. A secondary reason is that it has levels for most EU countries built in and lastly, because it can be re-calibrated every year in the UK.I use it mostly as a morning after check, but also if we go out for dinner and I have a glass or two of wine with a meal I check that I'm well under the limit: there is NO excuse for driving under the influence.Recommended without reservation.

by Suny Bay on 2018-03-28

What a great piece of kit; I know it costs well north of £100 but if it saves people their jobs, or more importantly prevents accidents and saves lives, its very well worth it.I've always worked on the principle (being 6' 4" and 17 stones) of 1 pint just about OK to drive, 2 pints borderline so don't even think about it.The Alco Sense more or less confirms this with an ordinary pint of 4.2% bitter, 45 mins after drinking it reading 0.18 whereas two after 45 mins are 0.35 which is right on the limit. It also cranks up the reading when drinking on an empty stomach, which is how it should be- alcohol on am empty stomach enters the bloodstream more quickly than after a 14" pizza.As I rarely drink later than 6pm, the morning after readings are, to date, always green <0.09.

Clear and accurate guidance. Easy to use. Excellent product support.

by Ian McIntyre on 2018-03-24

Simple and easy to use right out of the box. Useful ability to tailor to different countries and output colour coded for unmistakable guidance. Went for fuel cell option in expectation of more accurate results. So far, this appears to be the case. Only glitch I’ve found is innacurate recording of time stamp with historical results. Don’t know if this is my set up or the software. Either way it’s not material to performance.Update: helpful response to support team query email within 24 hours that assured me that updating the firmware to latest version 1.01.28 resolves the time stamp issue. Downloaded the app onto my creaky windows laptop without incident, updated software and now functioning perfectly as promised. Excellent support unlike some electronic devices these days.

Not entirely sure if it is properly fit for purpose

by John Harrington on 2018-03-03

Appears to be a quality product, Instructions suggest that you do not use for at least 90mins after drinking in order to get an accurate reading, and that if you take a reading too soon you may damage sensor, Surely the whole point is to be able to take a reading shortly after having a few drinks, otherwise what use is the product ?

If you are going to get a personal breathalyser then you need to get one that you can trust. AlcoSense appear to have just about the best product on the market judging by all the reviews that can be found. The fact that they provide a calibration service also adds to your confidence and the cost of this service is reasonable. It is not a cheap product but this is definitely a case of getting what you pay for. I would say that this is a must for anyone who drives the day after a 'good' previous night, that obviously goes double for the festive season.

The only criticism would be the ribbon cable that connects the two parts of the unit is a weak point in design and ultimately prone to failure having taken a broken unit apart to see what the poem was. May be a redesign for the next model if one is designed.

Best I've used to date

by A reviewer on 2017-08-25

I cannot genuinely comment on accuracy as I don't have a lab but the ease of use and interface is hands down better than all the cheaper units I've used as well as the older alcosense I owned which gave very little feedback on errors or mis-reads. Don't waste your money on cheap units as the whole point is accuracy and prevention of problems. The blow coach and time to sober are very useful. The calibration reminder is good too but I'm not sure of the price of calibration for this model - hoping it's not too steep.The one thing that did irritate me is the lack of blow tubes in the pack (5 is very stingy considering I've spent 150 quid - 3 times what I did last time), it's just annoying and a way of getting some more cash out of you.

What an eye-opener

Fantastic.....and quite an eye opener!Occasionally have a drink on a 'school night' as we call it. 99% of the time we feel a ok next morning but have wondered if once or twice we would have been over the limit so got this to be on the safe side. Hubby tried it the next morning before going to work- he felt absolutely sober as a judge......the alsosense told him to wait 7 hours before driving! We were stunned. He rang into work and booked the day off!What scared us was that he felt fine and had driven into work on numerous occasions before.....he is so lucky to not have been pulled over and lose his license.We no longer drink 'on a school night' !!

Good design, easy to use

by Paranomia on 2017-07-17

I delayed my review so I could thoroughly test this breathalyser.Firstly, do not buy cheap breathalysers unless you are just using them for fun, they are worse than not using them at all - the last thing you need is to be lulled into a false sense of security!I had the opportunity to test the Alcosense Pro against other MUCH more expensive evidence equipment and the results were impressive. Within reason, I would trust this unit to give me accurate readings if used correctly - remembering to wait a while after brushing your teeth (oops!) or using mouthwash etc but most things to avoid are common sense.My only gripe is that you have to buy the next model up (at an extra £100) to be able to download the readings to a computer. You can update the software using a supplied USB cable although a required driver is not digitally signed so my computer refuses to install it.Other reviewers have complained that it requires calibration each year but this is not expensive and keeps the thing accurate. I suspect the complainers don't give their cars a service either... ????That said, I am totally satisfied with this breathalyser and would recommend it to anyone. It is a well designed unit, easy to use and solidly made although I thought it prudent to get a carry-case for it. Even better; designed and made in the UK, good to see home grown innovation alive and well. Keep it up people!

I bought this so I could check on my wife since she has a habit of binge drinking at home. Like any caring husband I would not want her to become an alcoholic but after 4 years the habit is getting hard to break! There have been ultimatums and of course she is always in self denial about drinking even after I search the house and find the hidden empty & full bottles. Now that she knows I can check her alcohol level I have not had to use the AlcoSense Pro because I have not found her comatose or in a drunken stupor since. I think this breathalyser has saved our marriage! Works as I had hoped, thanks.

High quality and accurate

by Richard Hill on 2017-03-12

I bought this unit after much deliberation and research, as I want a unit I can actually trust and it seems the way to achieve genuinely accurate readings is a calibrated fuel cell sensor and a metered sample. Years ago, I tried a cheap no-brand unit based on semiconductor technology that told me I was under the limit despite clearly being in a state where I wouldn’t trust myself with anything more dangerous than a butter knife…Anyway, this unit offers a decent sized fuel-cell sensor, the ability to vary the limit for different jurisdictions and an annual (at a reasonable cost) calibration service. This unit meters the sample size as well as providing a really handy bar type indicator for blow rate. So, this all looked like something that I could take as being accurate. The tests I found on the Internet all backed this line of thought up.In use, this device is really simple to operate, slide open and wait for the countdown of a few seconds to warm up, inset blow-tube and go for it, watching the 2 graphs of blow rate and sample size. When done, the unit beeps and makes a click (I assume the inlet blocking to prevent too large a sample) and you read the results in your chosen units against a simple traffic light background. It also gives a time to zero estimate that turned out to be pretty much on the money for me.Whist I don’t have any way of benchmarking the results, they remain consistent when testing more than once and the numbers decline steadily over time as your metabolise the alcohol in your system. So, all seems to be good. Apparently the unit is designed to over-read slightly as there is always a +/- margin of error, so the displayed value is slid upward to ensure no under-reads.In summary, I am pleased with the purchase as it delivers on the promise of accuracy and despite not being the cheapest, it is actually good value when viewed in the context of a lost licence and the impact on your life / livelihood. Being honest, I would only ever buy from a reputable British company like AlcoSense as you get a quality product which has been developed responsibly and with backup service. If you go for a cheap alternative, then I would say you’re putting yourself at risk - trusting something unreliable and so potentially misleading puts you in a worse position overall.I would also say that this type of device should be used in conjunction with a healthy dose of common sense. If I don’t feel up to it, I don’t drive at all. This needs to be reading green AND the driver feeling good. For me, it’s a morning-after double-check and emphatically not a tool to take it to the limit before getting in the car.

This is a quality product in which feel confident to use. I have it for a couple of weeks now. Already it has indicated that I was over the Iimit one morning after a few drinks. Without the test I would no have known. It may seem a little expensive, but compared to the costs of driving over the limit (both financial and otherwise) it is, definitely, worth the expenditure. Although I never drink and drive on the same day, I was surprised how long the alcohol stays in the system. The supplier emailed me yesterday asking if I had any questions about it. As I am not in the UK I enquiried about recalibration after 12 months. A satisfactory response was received within 24 hours. Buy the carry case as well. Great product, highly recommended.

I bought this product for myself and was so impressed that I have given one to each of my adult sons.It is compact and easy to use as it guides you as to how to blow to obtain an accurate reading. You are also advised as to how long it will be until it is safe to drive. An added advantage is that it adapts to the country you are in by adjusting to their legal limit. Allied to being aware of the units consumed I have found this gives me peace of mind the morning after. After sales service is pleasant and efficient. I would recommend this product.

Very simple to use unit. I have used cheaper units in the past. This is quality. Gives a very accuracy reading. No annoying loud beeps . While a little more pricey I feel my driving licence security is well worth the investment.

by Stevie on 2017-01-23

Very simple to use. Very accurate. Very easy to follow instructions and explanations. I had 3 pints lager in 3 hrs and then waited 30 mins before testing as instructed. So 3 1/2 hrs passed altogether. My reading was .13 whereas the limit in ireland is .22 so i would legally still have been safe to drive! Tested it again the following night after four glasses of 125ml wine & three 330ml btls of lager over 4 hrs and i was over the limit at .28, dont take a gamble with your license, great product, wish i'd got one sooner.

by Mr. David O'higgins on 2017-01-12

I bought this after reading a review in a motoring magazine. I already had the Alcosense Elite model and was very happy with it, but this new Pro model is something else entirely! It has obviously been incredibly well designed and can cater for almost any eventuality, while remaining very easy to use. I use it purely as a 'morning after' checker and I highly recommend it.

Peace of mind in your pocket.

by IanESJ on 2017-01-10

My partner recently got stopped by the police whilst driving the day after having some drinks with friends. She was asked if she had had drinks the night before she was happy to say she had, but that 12 or so hours had passed.She passed the breath test, but the policeman noted that there was some alcohol still in her system. She was profoundly upset, although she knew that people CAN have alcohol in their system the next day, she assumed that was heavy drinkers.We immediately researched and purchased what we believe to be the absolute best brand of home breathalyser, the Alcosense. We chose the Elite, but received the next model, the Pro which has a larger sensor and is more accurate.There is absolutely no excuse for drink driving, and with this you can know with confidence that you are beyond reproach in terms of Alcohol.

Easy to use and above all accurate

by Mr D. on 2016-12-30

Easy to use and above all accurate. One can set the limit to whatever one choses and as I work in an industry with zero tolerance to alcohol, it's reassuring to know that one is clear first thing in the morning. I often start work at 05:00 and I anm very likely to be breatherlyzed at the gate on the way in. A number of colleagues have lost their jobs due to this, Now if I still have alcohol in my system at 05:00, I can be a little late with few reprocussions.

Job saver, or maybe even Life saver.

by Amazon Customer on 2016-12-29

I ordered one of these after having one to many at the works Christmas party. I still felt drunk the next day so didn't want to get in my car and spent the whole day walking everywhere. According to the specs it never under reads, so if this tells you your OK to drive then you're OK. I believe the accuracy of the fuel cell is worth paying the extra for over some of the cheaper models.One of my colleagues also had a go on it after a heavy Christmas session and realised he wasn't fit to drive and ended up waiting around work until he was clear. The time to sober estimation is very useful and it's very clear to use with its red / amber / green screen on the results.Im more than happy with this product and wouldnt hesitate to recommend it, especially for people who like a decent drink. I know people that have lost their licence and livelihood by being unfit to drive the next day. Well worth investing.

by Geordie on 2016-12-29

Firstly, the appliance is very well constructed, it feels robust and looks fit for the purpose. The instructions are comprehensive and it has worked faultlessly on the dozen or so times that I've used it and I can honestly say that, when it tells me that I'm OK to drive, I believe it ! But it's one of those pieces of kit that can't be personally checked for accuracy. It does, I believe from the instructions, err on the side of caution which is a good thing. Being the festive season I checked myself at 10.40 am on Boxing Day and it told me that I'd be sober in 3hrs and 40mins. (a great evening was had by all), I checked again two hours later when the reading gave me the 'thumbs up'. Ultimately, the proof of the pudding is in the hands of the ladies and gentlemen who might ask you to, 'Blow into this tube'.

Instead of sending my Elite,(used happily for a couple of years) for re - calibration. I decided to buy the Pro.
A vast improvement in ease of use.
Happy to hear there is an update for battery life, mine are near replacement, although I use mine daily, often several times,and still on supplied set two months later.
Yes, the blow tubes are a little loose, and it is very in you face when using it, these are very minor niggles that I can live with.
I am happy to own one and would not be without it as I drink a lot and drive.
It is good to know that I am below the limit to do so.

Excellent product a big advance over earlier models, the bar graph display of how hard you are blowing makes it extremely easy to do the test accurately first time. In addition you do not have to blow for very long compared to other models.After a few drinks I tested it against a French approved chemical breathalyser and it was spot on which gives one great confidence in its use the morning after a night out before driving the car.

I cannot comment on the accuracy of this product, but purchased based on the very favourable endorsements associated with it. However, I have to say that the build quality and functionality are excellent. Also, the after sales service is very good. The package included a usb cable which puzzled me as there was no reference in the manual as to what it is for, so I emailed asking if it was for future firmware updates or perhaps to communicate with a Windows 10 app (for example) that is not yet available. Got a very prompt reply to let me know it was.

It is high quality. I did make a bold decision to spend £ 150 for it rather than buying cheaper products that may not give accurate results. Would suggest to prospective buyers to consider this product seriously. You money would be spent well. Also the fact that this is designed and manufactured in the UK should give you peace of mind and assurance of high quality.

Having received this product, I'm more than happy with it. It's compact, easy to use, and accurate...... I hope !I did a fair bit of research on this product before purchasing, and was impressed by the reviews and results of accuracy which were provided.I purchased this piece of kit to provide piece of mind after a night out, and having to drive the next day, now that the limit is lower in Scotland.It is a British product, having to comply to bs standards, so I have more confidence in it than I would in a product from China or the Far East.But I can't tell you how accurate it is because I don't know. The only way I could tell you that is if I was in a police car, comparing readings.There lies the problem. If it is accurate, which I think and hope it is, it's a great product, but it does require a certain leap of faith.

May not be the lowest priced fuel cell device, but also not the most expensive, so good value for what it is. Easy to contact this British company (I had a small query), with a knowledgeable person answering the phone.

The Only Sensible Breathalyser To Buy

I spent a while researching the various models of personal breathalyser on the market but after reading a product review in What Car where this model came out top in testing etc. the Alcosense Pro was the only choice. It arrived quickly and I was very impressed with the design and ease of use. This is one of those purchases that you cannot afford to get wrong and the proven accuracy of this model made this an easy choice over other cheaper but less credible models available on Amazon.

Good product and EXCELLENT customer service

by Pete B on 2016-04-29

I accepted a cheap upgrade to the PRO after the Elite began giving spurious readings while under warranty, I was somewhat concerned as the readings obtained from the PRO were lower than those previously obtained from the Elite. I returned the PRO for testing and it was shown to be completely accurate and was returned with a 2 page e mail not only giving the results but explaining what tests were carried out. As per another reviewer I was also surprised at how much I could drink (4 pints of 4% beer) and still be under the limit but certainly wouldn't trust myself to drive after drinking anything like that amount even if the test did show negative. I would finish by saying I consider the customer service from this company is excellent.

Very happy with the unit. The only small disappointment is the tubes need holding firmly in place and that is difficult to do and see the screen at the same time.

AlcoSense Says: You shouldn't need to hold the tubes in place. If you are using the mouthpieces (as opposed to blow tubes) they should sit in snugly but not fall out. The blow tubes push over the centre hole and fit very snugly. Please call us on 0800 195 0088 if you continue to have any problems.

Far superior to the Elite

by Stan on 2016-04-26

I don't think either of my 2 previous Elite's (1 for Scotland) held my confidence for any length of time due to the hit and miss nature of taking a test and some very eratic test results (I always thought a recalibration would be a waste of money). I bought this model in the hope of a vast improvement in ease of use and accuracy and wasn't disappointed. I was initially troubled by the Pro telling me I'm fine to drive but my Elite reporting otherwise but AlcoSense advised me to trust the Pro and have the Elite re-calibrated (which I now intend to do when the Pro is due its service). I await with interest to see how it performs in the coming months.

AlcoSense says: Thanks for the kind review on the Pro. The Elite is a little more fiddly to get the blow pressure right on than the Pro, which makes the Pro a lot easier to use. Also we put a larger increase in reading on the Elite to take into account it's greater margin of error which means the Elite will usually read a bit higher than the Pro, which has a very tight tolerance.

Upgraded from the Elite as I wasn't sure how accurate it was after 5 years. The Pro is quick to set up and the blow coach helps to get a good accurate reading. The Elite often displayed an error and you had to re-test but I have never had an error with the Pro. Have used the Pro in Scotland and England and it is very easy to change the settings.
While the Pro is more expensive than the Elite it can be used straight out the box and I am more confident in the results. I should have upgraded months ago.

Excellent model and not a bad price. Would recommend.

by L B. on 2016-04-04

Very pleased with purchase. Excellent quality and you can change the units to breath to match the police readings also the easy blow system makes it a doddle to use. When testing I was surprised by how much you could drink before reaching the legal limit. I certainly wouldn't be driving after that much. The main reason for purchase was for the next day after the occasional heavy night out especially when away on the motorbike. You shouldn't be under the influence of anything when riding and the AlcoSense can help as most importantly it gives a clear time to sober. Ideal for professional drivers who regardless of limits should not be consuming any alcohol. Hence the term professional. I would recommend this model.

AlcoSense Pro - Superb

by Mr Thomas Dick on 2016-03-14

I upgraded from the Alcosense Elite which was great. I had the Elite for about 4 years. The Pro is even better. Easier to use, better alcohol sensor and a lot easier to provide a breath sample. At the price it is a considered purchase but in my view well worth the money. Very happy with unit and customer service. No hesitation in recommending both.

Does a good job

by Michael C. on 2016-03-09

I bought this alcohol tester last week and found it easy to use. I compared it to my old testing machine and am much more confident in the accuracy of this breathalyser. It is relatively expensive but I think that it is worth it.

Great quality breathalyser.

by Amazon Customer on 2016-02-26

Having been a user of other AlcoSense products this is best I've used so far. The breath indicator ensures a more consistent measurement, something I've had problems with whilst using other vendors equipment.It is not a low cost product but has high build quality and the investment is worthwhile if you are looking for an accurate reading.

Nice unit, big improvement on earlier models

by Amazon Customer on 2016-02-11

I have owned two previous models of Alcosense devices, the last being the Elite.With previous models I found that getting the blow rate just right was quite difficult and the units gave errors and you had to test again. The Alcosense Pro is a doddle to use in comparison, there is a green bar indicating blow pressure and it was easy to get a reading every time.I was a little concerned that the unit consistently measured zero the next day as previous units showed low or 0.20 so I tested it at home after a couple of beers and waited the appropriate time. The unit measured 0.35 which showed the unit was working correctly.Great unit overall and nice you can change countries and set a custom level

Very Nice unit, very comprehensive. Good value. Complies with BS-EN16280.

by Billinski on 2016-02-08

Firstly let me explain that I am in no way connected to AlcoSense and have not received any “reward” for providing this review, it is a genuine unbiased and truthful review.

I have updated this review after now having used the AlcoSense for a while now, and after having received the most helpful clarifications from the AlcoSense Laboratory. My previous “Cons” (“Zero Reading” and see below for explanation) was unfounded as what I perceived as a limitation was in fact a result of complying with BS-EN16280 which has now also been taken as a European wide standard.

Pros:-
- Very useful in that it covers many countries automatically setting limit according to that country.
- Uses similar fuel cell technology as the UK police, so is comparable with theirs with regards to accuracy. See the Top Gear YouTube video as evidence of this.
- Nice Display that predicts you what time you will be below limit.
- Remarkably easy to use.
- The tubes re-usable. This is not made clear in the description so I've wasted money on buying two packs of 25 tubes - silly me.

Caution:
Wait at least 30 minutes between last alcohol intake and use, as described the sensor is sensitive and can be damaged by too high an alcohol concentration.

Cons: None whatsoever. It would have been nice if the unit was “French NF” compliant, though since 2014 the French authorities have scrapped the fine for not carrying an NF certified breathalyser for an indefinite period. So no great shakes!

Zero Readings:
Do be aware, and it is stated in the instructions, the unit will not display a reading other than zero below 0.10‰BAC (0.05mg/L) because that AlcoSense have designed the unit to comply with the new British Standard (BSI) for breathalysers, BS-EN16280. The standard is actually technically a very high standard and mandates a very high level of accuracy from the product, however one quirk of this standard dictates that an reading below 0.10‰BAC (0.05mg/L) must be rounded down to ZERO and AlcoSense cannot display any other message – for example on the Elite it displays “LOW”. As this is a standard unfortunately AlcoSense cannot pick and choose which parts to comply with.

Other notes provided to me by AlcoSense:
“With regard to giving you an estimate of what alcohol consumption will show what reading on a breathalyser the following is a rule of thumb but does vary between different people. Roughly one unit of alcohol IN THE BLOOD will produce a reading of 0.10-0.15‰BAC on a breathalyser, depending on body weight and a number of other factors. So, for example, to be at the legal limit in England, you would need to have between 5.3 and 8 units of alcohol in the blood AT THE SAME TIME. Alcohol which is still in the stomach is not in the blood and therefore is not impairing you or measurable until it is processed into the blood stream. It must be remembered that the body is constantly processing alcohol into the blood stream from the digestive system and out of the blood stream at the same time. With no food in the stomach the alcohol gets into the blood stream in 15-30 minutes after drinking, with food this can extend up to 90 minutes. Without food more alcohol enters the blood stream more quickly and you have a higher peak reading, but the time from drinking to the alcohol leaving the body is shorter. With food in the stomach the rate of absorption into the blood stream is much slower and the peak alcohol reading will be significantly lower, but from the time to drinking to the alcohol leaving the system is longer as a result of the delay in entering the blood stream.
Applying the above to the situation you describe below, each can of Stella contains 2.1 units of alcohol = total of 4.2 units. If this was all in your blood stream at the same time you would register around 0.40-0.60‰BAC. However, as you drank this over 2 hours, after eating, the body will have absorbed some of the alcohol into the blood stream but not all when you measured yourself. The body will also be processing out one unit per hour so even though you drank 4.2 units I would normally estimate you would only ever see 1-2 units in the blood at any one time. As a result this corresponds with the readings you have seen.”

All drivers who drink should have one.

by The Binfield Biker. on 2016-02-05

My initial impression is that it is a well thought out high quality product which is a useful aid for any driver who may only drink in moderation. On screen instructions are simple to follow and the result of testing is easy to understand. In particular the results are educational and extremely useful in preventing inadvertent breaches of the law. I feel the unit will be very useful when abroad on holiday when perhaps one tends to over indulge in the evenings. My only minor concern is that the carrying case is rather bulky and I would prefer for travelling a soft leather case; a very minor point when considering the strengths and practicality of the unit.

Have just purchased directly from AlcoSense the new improved version of their machine. Having been pleased with original which I bought 3-4 years ago for myself and 3 x adult children, I am delighted with the improvements to the new model in terms of multi country application, improved accuracy and 'time to sober' countdown.

Nicely styled piece of kit, especially with the neat case available as an extra.

My first Breathalyzer. Have borrowed a friends one before but this is far more like a professional/police device. I'm sometimes concerned about being over the limit in the morning and this gives me the reassurance that I'm ok to drive. Simple to use and gives you an indication of when you can get behind the wheel if you blow over the limit.

well thought out, but expensive consumables. Outstanding customer service

by camo110 on 2016-01-21

Well presented and easy to use. Blow coach very helpful.
I find the blow tube a loose fit and continually have to hold in position when using, difficult to do due to the odd angle the blow tube is angled at. Why it is not a firm press fit i dont know.
Try and do this whilst trying to keep the blow coach within the lines, raise your eyes at an acute angle whilst holding the tube in position.

I also think the cost of the blow tubes is prohibitive and excessive and may have put me off if i had seen the price prior to the unit purchase. having considerable experience of plastics these should cost pennies.

These comments should be viewed as constructive criticism - NOT complaints
I am more then satisfied with the unit

Alcosense Pro - nice unit

by YorkyGeoff on 2016-01-21

As a previous owner of an AlcoSense Elite I was not impressed. However, the company have been very fair and I now have an AlcoSense Pro to use. This unit is in every way better, and at last I have confidence in the results it produces. It is also an order of magnitude easier to use. The unit is well designed and well built. And, much more importantly, it actually works!
Pity the Elite was such a let down, but a fair recovery!

Makes you feel so much safer...

by Bubbles... on 2016-01-21

I have had the Elite for quite a while with varying results! I bought the Pro for the morning after testing and I think its superb.
The unit is smart and the screen is big and very easy to read. I like the way it shows you how hard to blow and for how long.
I am told the accuracy of the Pro is light years ahead of the previous models and I can believe this given the technology behind this little machine.
If you like a drink in the evening and want to drive the following morning I would highly recommend this unit. May seem a lot of money to invest at the start but no where near the cost or the misery of drink driving the following morning.

Alcosense Pro

by John on 2016-01-21

Having been as alcosense elite owner for years, took the opportunity to upgrade to the pro to benefit from the advanced more accurate fuel cell technology at very competitive price. This was primary reason for change as more accurate than previous units, which is ultimately the most important quality of any breathalyser in my opinion. On receipt of unit very pleased with quality, ease of use and additional features. Would highly recommend.

AlcoSense Pro Breathalyzer

by SubaruJack (Review shared from Halfords.co.uk) on 2015-12-15

I've had a breathalyzer for a few years which finally gave up the ghost this month. I bought the new AlcoSense Pro as a replacement/upgrade and I'm really impressed with it. It's so easy to use and I love that it tells you how long it takes until you're sober and shows how you're blowing on the screen. It makes it so easy to use. The design is great and the build is really nice - it feels quality. Accuracy wise it seems good but I don't have anything to judge it against, but the overall feel of the product and the operation gives you confidence in the quality. I would recommend it!

A really polished product.

by Phil4 (Review shared from Halfords.co.uk) on 2015-12-15

I'll start by saying, that overall I'm very very impressed with this. The overall design, the lovely screen, and the way it works is top notch. So overall I'd say I'm very happy. It's very easy to use, and looks like a nice device too, much more smart and modern than older units.

If there was one stand-out feature, it would be Blow Coach. It's a really simple feature, but makes it so easy to use. As you blow the screen shows two realtime bars, one you need to keep in the middle (how hard you blow) and the other shows you how much longer to blow.

It sounds simple, but really makes it very easy to use.

The rest of the device is similarly polished, the screen is clear and bright, the device is smart. And it all works nicely.

If you've any concerns about the morning after, I'd highly recommend this to check.
