Lite 2 Breathalyser | Health & Pharma Award Winner 2024 |Alcohol Tester for UK, Irish & Scottish Breathalyzer Limits | Home Alcohol Detector

Good product, easy to use, compact and hopefully reliable!!

Brilliant, easy to use. NB I use it the following day from have a couple of glasses of wine and find it pretty accurate. NB in my case it is not a substitute for driving after a drink. The unit feels well made.

I never drive when I have taken any drink so I bought this solely because I want to be double-sure-and-certain that I'm OK to drive on the morning after the night before. I did what everyone does, presumably, and tried it out at various stages of an evening, and the results were pretty much what I'd have expected given the units x time ready reckoning that I've been going by hitherto. The morning-after readings were lower than I would have expected, though I am a large man and presumably the information on how slowly alcohol clears from the body is very conservative to allow for small people or those with slow metabolisms. It is an extremely plasticky, cheap-feeling item mind you, and it's not all that nice to use. Also, some form of carry case or even a bag would have cost the manufacturers only a tiny amount and would have been very convenient due to the consumables involved - little plastic straws which are packaged in nasty plastic bags which break and tear when you open them. I see that they are flogging a case as an extra, which is presumably why they don't include a bag. Sigh. On the whole I reckon that it's at least as accurate as the manufacturers claim, that it's not that expensive and that if it stops me from driving when I'm near the limit on even one morning during my ownership then it will have paid for itself many times over.

I bought a breathalyser as, like many, I was worried about the morning after drinking and knowing when is safe to drive. There were so many makes and models, some differing massively in price, I wasn't sure which to get. I saw this one advertised here and on Halfords, so I figured it was unlikely to be rubbish. I've used it a couple of times and it seems to work great. Firstly, it's really easy to use with a very clear user manual. It's very neat as well, but the main thing you want is accuracy. I tried it after using Listerine mouthwash and it could detect alcohol - below the limit - but advised not to drive. I waited 30 mins or so (it advises you not to use it within 30 mins of mouthwashes, breath sprays, etc. for this reason) and I was back to no alcohol being detected. Couple of days later, I've used it again after drinking a can of cider at 1.3 units - tried it and it said I was just over the limit, which is what you would expect. So seems very accurate - very pleased and definitely will be a good peace of mind going forward!

A must have piece of equipment especially if touring France or Scotland. I ended buying the case and extra tubes. Likes: price, very clear instructions (for a change), ease of use, seems a quality build. Dislikes: it needs "re-calibrating" after a year or so many uses - which you have to send away to get done at a cost. The on-off switch is super sensitive, so accidentally turning on is very easy. I had to do a reading after a couple of pints after a few 'Lo' readings to convince it was working. Current calibration does not show on start. However, a good worthwhile buy.

I bought this a year ago and was impressed, a year later my impression is very different, I bought this for going to a wedding, funny thing I forgot to take it with me, drove to the wedding and got a cab back and collected my car the next day. I had 1 pint and 4 bottles of beer and a small glass of bubbles for the toast, all day and evening, got back to the hotel and breathalyser myself and could have drove back to the hotel, not used it since, I don’t drink if I’m driving, today I have had 5 beers as my breathalyser is saying re calibration required, and the results are I am okay (lo) to drive, but I know that I am not after 5 440mils of 4.5% beer, calibration is around £24 , so used a couple of times ( not 300) and it needs calibration but I am okay after 5 beers, so £45 for a new one, and £24 every year after irrespective of use, back to plan A don’t drink and drive and don’t buy something that wants £24 each year, if it was £10 I would definitely think it was worth it but I think seeing only used twice it’s a rip off, just my personal opinion don’t waste your money

Simple to use, perfect in case you might worry about the day after a party.

Very compact, just what I wanted to save buying individual ones for travel abroad when driving, read the instructions first rather than just put the batteries in straight away like I did ;o) the instructions are very clear and set up takes a couple mins and then very easy to use. Not tried after alcohol yet but worked well and gave correct reading when no alcohol. AMAZON is rubbish they make it so complicated to get a review added - it says it's added and then disappears!!!
