We all know how a few glasses of wine or a few pints with some friends can easily take you over the limit to drive home. However, if a few drinks turn into quite a few drinks not many people realise the reality that alcohol can still be in your system the morning after. If you drank 4 pints or 3 large glasses of wine during a night out it could take as long as 12 hours for the alcohol to leave your system*. If you stopped drinking at midnight you could still be over the drink drive limit at 10am FACT!
The AlcoSense™ breathalyser will accurately and quickly tell you your level of intoxication and is set to warn you when you are near or over the UK drink drive limit, meaning that you instantly know if you are OK to drive or not.
The Easy to Use
AlcoSense Breathalyser has been designed to be as easy as possible to use and designed to fit in the palm of your hand for easy portability. To activate the breathalyser all you do is slide the AlcoSense™ open. Once open it prepares the sensor and the screen will show a count down from 19 to 0, then it will display Blow. When it says blow, blow through the tube for approximately 5 seconds until it beeps.
You Can't Get it Wrong!**
The AlcoSense™'s revolutionary design features in built air flow sensors mean that you can't blow too hard or too softly which could distort the result of the breath test. If you blow too hard or too softly the system will display "Error" on the screen and will allow you to re-take the test. All you need to do is keep blowing through the AlcoSense™ for about 5 seconds until it beeps to indicate that you can stop.
Easy to Understand
The AlcoSense™ unit shows your level of intoxication in either mg/l (micro-grams per litre of blood) or %BAC (percent of blood alcohol content) and shows your reading in increments of 0.01.
The current UK drink drive limit is 0.80‰ BAC.
Easy to Clean and Maintain
The AlcoSense™ unit automatically performs a sensor clean after every time it is used, helping to keep the sensor in top condition and reading at its most accurate. Without cleaning moisture, oxidisation and contaminants such as tannin can build up, significantly affecting the quality of readings. With AlcoSense™'s automatic sensor clean after every blow test the unit will continue to perform at its best throughout its lifetime.
For a deeper clean AlcoSense™ 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™ unit will do the rest for you.
Use it Again and Again
Using the latest technology and innovations, such as sensor algorythm and automatic sensor maintenance, AlcoSense™ can be used again and again without losing accuracy meaning that it is a secure investment. No matter how much you use your AlcoSense™ it won't let you down.
Part of the responsible enjoyment of alcohol is to understand its effect on the body and to understand when you are safe to drive, AlcoSense™ helps people do exactly that and takes out the potentially fatal guess work the morning after.
