 If you can afford the Alcohawk Pro, buy it instead April 2, 2008

I actually bought both the Alcohawk Slim Digital and the Alcohawk Pro a year ago for two cars, one for me and my fiancee. Although the Alcohawk Pro is more expensive, over $120.00 vs. $49.00 the difference in the product is enormous.
The Alcohawk pro version works like magic, you really only have to wait about 5 seconds to blow in the tester, and you get your BAC result right away. I have used it many times and haven't had to change the battery so far.
The Alcohawk Slim Digital Tester, on the other hand, takes forever to calibrate once you push the start button. Instead of 60 seconds, you're really waiting over three minutes before you can blow in the mouthpiece. You have to take a very deep breath, and it takes about 10 seconds to see your results. Sometimes you won't even get a result, then you have to wait over two minutes for the device to recalibrate itself, all over again. About three months ago I changed the batteries assuming that it was the reason why it was not turning on properly, but that did not solve the problem. I had to blow in the mouthpiece repeatedly and wait for about 10 minutes, I just gave up.
Bottom Line: If you can afford the Alcohawk Pro which is 3 times more expensive, you will not be disappointed. The cheap price of the Slim tester version makes up for the delayed time and inferior quality of the product.
 Works as Described March 21, 2008

Easy to use. Works as described. I bought it as a lark - just to see exactly how "drunk" I was. It's been fun at parties & drinking w/friends. However, having a measuring stick for alcohol has really slowed down my consumption - which no doubt is a good thing. I'd compare this benefit to counting calories. You tend to eat less & healthier, when you know how many calories you're consuming. This has the same effect. I'd love to find a breath tester for calories. Instead of keeping a mental note on all the calories I've consumed, if I could just blow into the test & it would tell me.

My husband has had 3 DUI's and lost his privilege to drive. Which is a good thing! No one needs people like him driving around. Unfortunately for us, we now have to drive him to work, back home and everywhere else. He is supposed to be alcohol free at all times. He lied to me too many times so I got this to keep him honest. We use this every day to keep him from playing games. It works really well!

Don't know what else to say besides that it works. I have thoroughly tested it and the results seems to be pretty accurate. Make sure to read the instructions.
great gift January 16, 2008
this was a VERY popular gift at a recent holiday get-together! I have no idea how "legally" accurate it is, but it was plenty good enough for some interesting experimentation...
