Product Reviews of AlcoHawk Pro: Professional Edition Digital Alcohol Detector
Product Review: FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS
Summary: 3 Stars
the product worked good at first... however if you use it by not following instructions and blow into to soon after boozing it screws up the calibration...now i have an innacurate alcohol detectorProduct Review: ALCOHAWK WORKS
Summary: 5 Stars
This is my 3rd from this company in 5 years, I wish they would sell a calibration kit so I can verify it is still accurate before the pooolice.
It claims to work for 350 +/- uses and looses accuracy. But for less than a speeding ticket is is well worth the price.
Product Review: A Great Gift for Those You Care About
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this item as a kind of "gag-gift" for the training department of my largest client. They are a pretty young group and like to party every now and then. They thought that it was hilarious that I got it for them and immediately started joking about how they could incorporate it into some of their drinking games (on their days off of course). Later I learned that what started as a joke led to them using it to make sure that their team members were fit to drive. I received some sincere thanks from them later for caring enough to get them this well made, pro-quality detector. Product Review: This thing is PRO!
Summary: 5 Stars
I purchased the AlcoHawk Pro Alcohol Detector from Amazon about a month ago, and have used it 4 times. This thing is great! It provides consistent (accurate) readings when used correctly.
*Pros:
Good battery life
Accurate sensor
Easy to use
Comes with a nice hard plastic case with a soft cloth cover, a DC (cigarette lighter) adapter, and extra plastic mouthpieces
*Cons:
Price
20 Minute wait time after last food/drink
To test the accuracy of this product, my girlfriend and I both had about 6 drinks over the course of 1.5 hours. We each waited 20 minutes, then took turns blowing into the machine. Over the course of 10 minutes and 3 tests, my BAC read 0.05-0.06, deviating only by 0.01. My girlfriend's readings were 0.11-0.13, deviating by only 0.02. Considering we took alternating turns with the machine over a short period of time but it maintained its accuracy, I'd say the sensor within this machine is worth every penny.
I was apprehensive about the price of this item, but after using it a few times I highly recommend it!
Product Review: AlcoHawk Pro works
Summary: 4 Stars
I have used it a few times. I have nothing to compare it to, nothing to use as a baseline to see if it indeed gives me the correct readout, but I would ESTIMATE it works as it should.
