About this deal

On 5th December 2014 Scotland lowered its drink drive limit from 0.80‰BAC (80mg of alcohol per 100ml of blood) to 0.50‰BAC (50mg of alcohol per 100ml of blood), England, Wales and Northern Ireland stay at 0.80‰BAC. AlcoSense shows you a reading of your alcohol level so you can use the Scottish or English version of the product in either territory. The Scottish version displays a ‘Don’t Drive’ alert from 0.30‰BAC upward and the English/Welsh version from 0.6‰BAC upwards. You Can’t Get it Wrong!** I did a first test when it arrived, mid afternoon on a day I had had no alcohol and as expected it returned a 'Lo' reading. I then tried it one evening after a couple of drinks and wine with dinner - a time I would never have driven but wanted to see what it said - and as expected it showed me over the limit. So then I did a morning after test a couple of times after a night when I had drunk moderately heavily and was happily surprised to get a 'Lo' reading. I did a further test one morning after a few nights of drinking to see if there was a cumulative effect, and this time got a yellow reading, but below even the Scottish limit. Most issues while doing a breath test are caused by either blowing too hard, too soft or not for long enough, and with some products this can also cause inaccurate results. BlowCoach™ is a Patent Pending technology from AlcoSense which makes it simple to do the perfect test every time!

Using the latest technology and innovations, such as sensor algorithm and automatic sensor maintenance, AlcoSense™ Elite can be used again and again whilst maintaining better accuracy. Accurate Keeping a Semi-Conductor breathalyser sensor clean and free from oxidisation is essential for long term accuracy and performance. The AlcoSense Elite 3 automatically performs a sensor clean after every time it is used and periodically performs a deep sensor clean, helping to keep the sensor in top condition and reading at its most accurate and performing at its best throughout its lifetime.On 7th December 2014 The Sunday Post newspaper performed a group test with 4 consumer breathalyzers pitched head to head against a Lion 500 Police Breathalyzer. The AlcoSense Elite won the group test, with the AlcoSense Lite finishing runner up. At the reference reading of 50mg/100ml of alcohol in blood the AlcoSense Elite exactly matched the Lion 500 Police Breathalyzer and after expetensive testing concluded: The AlcoSense Lite has an ASC feature, manually selected by the user, which is a deep clean of the sensor and should be undertaken periodically to remove containment like residual alcohol and oxidisation from the sensor. If you intend to use your system regularly we would suggest considering the AlcoSense Elite which automatically self cleans after every blow test. Use it Again & Again We’ve seen some pretty flashy breathalysers in our time. But with features like the Blow Coach and Time Until Sober, this one really does take the whole bloody biscuit tin.”

For a deeper clean AlcoSense™ Elite also has a feature called ASC (Auto Sensor Clean) which is designed to be used every now and again to give the unit a ‘spring clean', again ensuring that the unit reads to the highest levels of accuracy. All you have to do is press a button and your AlcoSense™ Elite unit will do the rest for you. Recalibration reminder - Breathalysers, whether for Police use or otherwise, require periodic calibration to maintain accuracy. 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.Every AlcoSense™ unit is tested for accuracy three times before leaving our factory. As a result, our quality control is arguably the best in the industry meaning that you can have 100% faith in our products. AlcoSense Lite may be our entry level product but the design certainly doesn't cut any corners. It may not have all of the technology of the Elite but for the occasional user looking for an indication of their level of intoxication the AlcoSense Lite will more than fit the bill. 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. Every AlcoSense unit is tested for accuracy three times before leaving our factory. As a result our quality control is arguably the best in the industry meaning that you can have 100% faith in our products. AlcoSense Elite has industry leading accuracy of +/-0.2‰BAC which is unique in this price range. Why Delay? The Elite 3 uses a colour coded results system and will even alert you when you are near or over your chosen limit which you can set to any of the three limits in place in the UK and Ireland, please see the screen shots below.
