“I've been using the Element for about 2 years now and have been extremely happy with it. We like to have gatherings of friends at our house and as the night goes on... the Element comes out. Its funny to see how many people actually want to use it to see their BAC levels, which also makes it easier to convince them to get a ride home or call a cab. I'm going to give it a 4/5 on reliability only based on the fact that sometimes it takes several tries to get an accurate reading, but human error could play a part in this.”
“I bought this approximately a month ago and I am happy to say that this item is very easy to use and very effective. Couldn't be more satisfied and it gives me a peace of mind.”
“I bought two BACtrack Elements models so both my wife and I could keep them in our vehicles. With the holiday season nearing, the potential to partake in consumption of adult beverages is greater. Not only do we have peace of mind that we're driving legally but can make sure that our friends and relatives are safe as well before they get behind the wheel. We highly recommend that anyone who ever consumes alcohol uses a BAC track before they drive to protect themselves and those around them.”
“This does what it promises. It is a small, easy-to-use, (presumably) accurate BAC meter. I had trouble choosing which model to get, since there were several that seemed similar. I wish there had been more info about the differences, if any. There are two things about this model that I wish I had been aware of. One is that it makes a lot of loud beeps while doing its job! I'd like to be able to use the meter discreetly at times, but that's tough to do with this noisy little guy. Second, I was disappointed to learn that I am supposed to wait 20 minutes AFTER drinking or eating to use it. That's inconvenient and something I wish I had known. I wonder if either of those points distinguish this model from the others.”
“The reason I bought this unit because it has 3 digits display. Most of the time it pretty accurate. I used it about 10 times. However, one time I didn't drink or eat anything but it gave a reading of .0012”
“We used it on someone who drank too much. It took 10 tries before they could blow long enough for it to register. That was the only problem we had, 5 seconds of blowing was hard for an inebriated person.”
