Alcohawk Elite Portable Breathalyzer Review
The AlcoHawk Elite Personal Breathalyzer is the most advance breath tester in the AlcoHawk line-up. It incorporates numerous cutting edge technologies in a simple and lightweight package that is similar to law enforcement grade breath testing equipment accuracy that cost hundreds of dollars more.
The AlcoHawk Elite Portable Breathalyzer features TempCheck Technology, which is a sensor that monitors the temperature of the device and informs you if the Breathalyzer is outside of its optimal operating range of 50-104F, by displaying a hot or cool saying on the stunning Blue Lit LCD display.
This professionally advanced feature is only available on the AlcoHawk Elite, as well as being the first semi-conductor alcohol breath tester on the market to incorporate this enhanced feature.
The AlcoHawk Elite comes loaded with Sensor Recognition Technology, which allows the device to monitor for certain types of abnormal sensor conditions.
This portable Breathalyzer has an Electric Air Flow sensor that ensures that the user continuously exhales into the mouthpiece for 4-5 seconds to accurately estimate their BAC (Blood Alcohol Concentration). This features is important as it makes certain that the test subject has given a deep lung exhale vs. a short exhale that would trigger an inaccurate reading.
The Elite utilizes a Sample Concentration Sensor, which is a software upgrade that permits the Breathalyzer to track if an even alcohol concentration is detected in the sample. (Source: Q3 Innovations) This technology delivers another check of sample integrity to provide the test subject with an accurate intoxication percentage.
This professional breath tester has a wide BAC detection range of 0.000-0.400% BAC and a sensor accuracy of +/- 0.01% at 0.02% BAC.
With all of the professionally enhanced features built into the Alcohol Elite it will require periodic calibration, depending on the frequency of use to keep those sensors operating at peak performance. There is a small charge involved in this process but it is definitely worth the money and time to have such cutting edge technology in a personal Breathalyzer.
Once you activate this small (6x2x10cm) and tremendously lightweight (180 grams) personal Breathalyzer with a single push of a button, the 9-volt battery will warm the device up in 60-seconds, required blowing time of 5-seconds, and display a response in 4-5 seconds.
Included with the AlcoHawk Elite are 5 hygienic mouthpieces to ensure an uncontaminated BAC result each time a new mouthpiece is used, a soft carrying case to protect the Blue Lit LCD screen from scratches, an owner’s manual, a quick start guide, and a 1-year warranty.
Dave recently purchased an AlcoHawk Elite from us and gave a highly favorable review, the accuracy of this device and the features found on the Elite compared to other breathalyzers that cost hundreds if not thousands more is awesome! This compact Breathalyzer has a special place in my glove box and is always ready to tell me if I driving home or taking a cab, I love it, I will never get a DUI as long as I keep it at peak performance!!
