“Ive been using mine to learn more about how alcohol affects me, and at what rate. Is it different for different types? (Wine-cocktails-beer) And how quickly or slowly I reach the legal limit in my state. How long does it take to begin to drop? All questions have been answered by this little gadget. It's great!”
“LOVED this keychain... great to have for yourself and for friends to ensure no one drives under the influence. First time I bought it, it worked great for about a year... then it started misbehaving and having errors, so I sent it in for calibration. BACtrack emailed me saying they were unable to calibrate it and told me to buy a new one. I did, and after a year it stopped working (didn't bother to send it in for calibration). LOVED it while it worked, but annoyed that it needs to be re-purchased every year. On the fence as to whether or not I'll buy it again or try a different brand.”
“I purchased this for fun really. It doesn't work. Customer service is very kind. I have actually had 2 of these. I returned the first one and it was replaced for another one that also didn't work. Don't waste your money.”
“I had a bactrack c6 for 3 yrs then the readings became erratic. Sent it in for a calibration (you're supposed to do this every year, oops) and it was not salvageable. I opted to get a cheaper bactrack (bactrack keychain) but the readings are 0.08 after 2 coors lights. I bought my girlfriend a bactrack c6 since i liked and trusted mine so much recently. Once I blow into my gf's backtrack c6 it reads 0.025. The readings are consistent for both. My gf's c6 and my old c6 were consistent with eachother. Perhaps the higher cost of the c6 version is worth it versus the bactrack keychain? Obviously questioning my bactrack keychain numbers at this point.. or maybe the c6? Who knows!”
“I do not drink, but when my friends/family do we always play this game about "How drunk do you feel?" As interesting as the game is to us (a lot of conversations get started from it), it became REALLY fun when I can gauge the levels with the BAC.”
“I really wanted to like it, but I feel like the device registers far higher than what your BAC really is. I had two 5% hard seltzers and it told me I was over the legal limit. I waited 20 minutes before blowing like the instructions said. I think if you're going to buy from Bactrack get the more expensive models for more accurate readings.”
