Purchased to replace an older model. This is smaller and very easy to use.

Buy it!!! Never be without it!! BAKtrack C8 has taken the guess work out and replaced it with hard data I can trust!!! How I feel after a few drinks is irrelevant; I have the data in my hands now! I take my BAKtrack C8 with me anytime I leave the house knowing I'll be drinking. I feel so much more confident, no more paranoia worrying if I've had too much. Now I know exactly how much I've had. I'll pause drinking, rinse my mouth and take a few swigs of water, wait a minute, and test... (You only want to sample exhaled air from lungs! Alcohol coated mouth and esophagus will give false numbers). Be sure to also carry fresh batteries, ...also important! This is a game changer!!!! I will be a return customer for sure!!! I can't live without this device.

I bought my C8 almost a year ago, im very happy with it..I bought mine mostly for any guests who stop by have some drinks, and want to go..Gone are the days debating the issue, i simply test them to make sure..I myself am a Commercial driver so i wont even have 1, and drive..The rules are way different when you have a Commercial license..However iam also aware that even though you went to bed, got up, had a shower, and ate, you still might not be ready for the road, so i do double check the next day..Recently my devise stoped working, just before the year ended..I sent it back, they tested it, and are now sending me a brand new unit..BACtrack stands behind their warranty, and makes a very good product..Great Product, stand up company, what more can ya ask for..

Known both. My basic model malfunctions says 0 when you have had several and this one. Says after 1 beer that I'll be sober in 6 hours. I'll read it 5 min later it'll say longer. I have a very hectic life and haven't been able to reach out but I'm completely upset with that portion of this backtrack

Before we started using our BACtrack we would take a chance on getting pulled over by the police. Now we know that we are safe to drive or not. We always take BACtrack with us on vacation, on a night out or just going to a friends house. Some times we use it as a game to test who is the highest and lowest, Big laugh. Mostly it keeps us and others safe.

I Purchased again a device from them. I had to return it AGAIN because it was not working!!! It's brand new and does not work!?! It didn't pass their inspection… that's what I got from them. No apologies, nothing! Received a new one and I still have doubts about it.

The device seems to work well but the map needs some serious updating. Many of the readings on the map are from years ago. It needs an option to show only readings in the last hour or whatever time frame the user wants to set. Some info could be shown on the ballons without clicking them and full screen as default would be nice. Numerous other things need polishing.
