Good piece of kit

Does what it claims. Very handy to indicate if you're safe to drive or not. As a rule of thumb: one unit takes 1 hr to leave the body. Always round up units on drinks (pint stella rounded up is 3 units). Add one for time it takes for liver to start processing 1st unit drank. One pint stella (3 units (rounded up)) plus 1 is 4. That means it takes approximately 4 hrs before safe to drive after one pint. 4 pints stella + 1 is 13 hrs before safe to drive. Start the time to wait from last drink. If you stop drinking at 10pm after 4 Stella, wait until at least 11am next day. Ive used this "system" for years. Also depends how healthy your body/liver is, and if youve eaten food. The Alcosense unit seems to follow the "system" ive previously used. After 4 Stella using the "system" it indicated 0.2 after 12 hrs and indicated 'LO' after 13 hrs. Alcosense unit is very simple to set up and small enough to carry around. I would say that if you took this to the pub and had a few beers then used it straight away, you'll probably get a false result. It takes time for alcohol to get in your system. You could initially blow a very low reading but 30 minutes later be over limit. This unit is best the morning after a session the night before. If you visit the pub, dont drink. Assign someone to drive who wont be drinking, get taxi or drink alcohol-free beer. The cost is reasonable compared to what can happen for drink driving offences.Read full review

Easy to use with accurate results

Very happy with the product which is very easy to set up and use.
Results are very accurate and we tested the product between a few friends after some drinks and the readings appeared correct in terms of the amount of alcohol we had consumed.
Will definitely use, especially the morning after drinking

Great licence saver !

Had an old one of these years ago and it was fine. This newer one is even better. I always use it in the morning if I’ve had a drink, although I am never over it is reassuring to know for definite before you set off. £35 to protect your drivers licence ! A bargain! Read full review

Would recommend !

Seems like a good product. We have tested it with zero alcohol and after a couple of glasses of wine and it seems accurate. Instructions are pretty clear with a useful table for alcohol limits around the world. Would recommend.Read full review
