May 07,2024Have used a small key chain breathalyser previously and as you can guess it probably wasn't the most accurate. So after much research I decided to go with the Alcosense Pro. Very impressed with it so far. A robust piece of kit which is easy to set up and use. I also do a lot of driving abroad, so the facility to switch countries and show readings against their specific blood alcohol levels is very useful to me.

Apr 30,2024This is my second Alcosense unit in the last 5 years and found them to be extremely reliable, easy to set up, robust and very easy to use. I bought an Alcosense Elite back in 2019 as we were were attending a lot of music festivals and although we weren't drinking a large amount, it was certainly worth checking the morning after the night before to see if we were safe to drive. had it regularly recalibrated and it was due for calibration at the start of April 2024. We decide to upgrade to an Alcosense Pro and the whole process was very easy and we got a very good price for trading in the older Elite model. We are even more impressed with the newer Pro model and will be using it this coming summer through the festival periods. Well worth the money to protect ourselves and other road users not to mention our licences. Well done Alcosense!!

Apr 22,2024Easy to set up and use and results seem consistent with what one would expect( alcosense pro). At the price a carry case would have been nice.

Apr 10,2024Bought the Alcosense Excel primarily because we're planning a vintage car trip to the Champagne reason and I'll be driving. I want to be sure I'm always under the limit. It arrived promptly from Amazon and as we were going for a pub lunch I was able to try it out quickly. I'm impressed. It is easy to set up and use and gave good results consisently. It gives a clear insight into your limits and how your body deals with alcohol. So I'm very pleased with the purchase.

Apr 05,2024I just bought the alcosense lite 2 - I think its great! I'm always worried about being over the limit the next morning, but this gives me great piece of mind at an affordable price!

Mar 30,2024En mycket lättanvänd alkomätare och den är mkt pålitlig! Bra pris också! Super nöjd! Och det är en sjukt billig försäkring när du druckit lite dagen innan.

Mar 27,2024Bought an alcosense elite 3 to upgrade my 7 year old alcosense. That was a mistake. Machine takes about 3 times as long to be ready compared to the original. It is far more finicky about how you blow into it, so much so that an additional leaflet is included to tell you how to blow. The unit is also rather larger than the original. On the plus side it works and is consistent with the old unit but overall rather disappointed in it

Mar 26,2024I had the "Lite" many years ago and it was great, now needed to upgrade and impressed with the extra additions on "Lite 3" that "Lite" did not have on it. Whether I have one drink or wake in morning after night out, it is good to use to check I am clear to drive.

Mar 26,2024Excellent product, compact, good value. Purchased to check morning after effects of alcohol. Great for travel if hiring a car abroad.

Mar 18,2024I tested the device the morning after a night out & received a series of "Blow Error" messages even though I was seeing the "keep blowing" message & did keep blowing. I re-seated the mouthpiece & the next blow worked

Mar 10,2024Recently upgraded to an Alcosense Excel breathalyser. This is easy to set up and use. I would recommend this product as a great way to confirm you are safe to drive the next day after a few drinks.

Mar 06,2024Excellent device. Seems accurate. Easy to use. Having the peace of mind that you're OK to drive is great - especially on the morning after. And it is interesting to see the alcohol levels dissipate over the hours after drinking. My one disappointment with the product is that I didn't realise that the product will only work for 12 months at a time, and then I must send it back for re-callibration at a cost of £25. I doubt that would've discouraged me from buying it, but I think that customers should understand that before purchasing. If this was advertised I missed it - maybe the signage, if any, should be bigger! I would have given 5* otherwise.

Mar 03,2024Easy to set up and use. Comes with some free mouthpieces. Small device so great for travelling. Can change limits according to country. Really handy gadget! I bought the alcosense excel device.

Feb 28,2024Recently upgraded from a first generation Elite that had served me well for many years to the new Pro. Both devices give you a pretty accurate guide to whether you are safe to drive or not but found with the old style Elite it could sometimes take a couple of attempts to get a reading but was a good basic breathalyser however the Pro is on a different level as it has visible meter you use to ensure a consistent sample every time and even shows an estimated time until you are safe to drive, it also stores previous readings so it can over time let you build a picture of how long it takes for different drinks and quantities to leave your system so you can start to work out in advance of a night out what your safe limit will be if you need to drive the next day. If you rely on your licence for work or even just day to day driving having this to hand for a quick check before setting off is a no brainer if you don't want to risk losing it.

Feb 27,2024This breathalyser is so easy to use. It's perfect to take away with you if you need to drive the morning after a night out. Small and compact, easily fits into a handbag.

Feb 27,2024I like to enjoy a night out but also like to know I'm safe to drive and that my license is safe. After research I opted for an Alcosense, and it's great. Super simple to use with quick and accurate results

Feb 26,2024I recently upgraded my old Alcosense Elite breathalyser for the Alcosense Pro Fuel Cell personal breathalyser. This is so much easier to use, as the screen shows you if you are blowing too softly or too hard (a problem I often had with the Elite). So there is no struggling to obtain a reading - you get one every time. I like the way it not only advises if you are over the limit but also approximately how long it will be until you are safe to drive. As a motorhome driver I need to be certain each morning before setting off, so this is very important to me. The other reason I went for the Pro was because it is pre-loaded with the individual alcohol limits for most countries, and I can change countries on the Pro to reflect my journey, so I am always aware of current legislation in each country. The only slight disappointment was that it didn't come with a case, and this needed to be purchased separately, so it involved 2 lots of P&P. Carl from Customer Services is especially helpful with queries and advice.
