“Unfortunately the product did not work as expected. I replaced the battery to brand new one but it worked sporadically (worked one time then 10x in a row I got an error message it was not registering a blow), and other times 'based on what I felt it should be for a reading' didn't provide an accurate reading. Another time 'zero' drinks starting in and it said I was already @ .19. Disappointed as I thought this would be a great opportunity to 'check in on my self' when out having drinks before driving home; and/or share with a friend if I think they shouldn't be driving after too many!”
Hello Jennifer,
We appreciate your feedback. Please be sure to wait at least 20 minutes after having your last drink before testing and wait 20 minutes in between each test in order for the sensor to reset. If you are testing back to back, the sensor will be oversaturated which will likely lead to inaccurate readings.
Please do not hesitate to reach back out if you have any other questions or concerns.
“As someone with a DUI on the past, accurate readings are very important to me. Every other brand I’ve used has given results all over the place and were incredibly inaccurate. I did my research and the C6 has been shown to produce accurate results in an incredibly small form factor. Just look it up on YouTube and you will see its THE one to get. A close friend happened to show up at my house as I was getting it from my mail box and she was the first to test it after me blowing a .000. She is much smaller girl and thought she was legal. I'll just say she was a LOT higher than she predicted. I immediately bought another C6 for her. everyone who drinks should have one in their glovebox.”
“This is compact and easy to use. I don’t know why I didn’t buy a breathalyzer sooner. I have always struggled with blackouts from alcohol. I’m sure it has to do with drinking liquor and not eating enough when I drink. This was a huge (and unsafe) struggle all of my college years and into mid 20s. I don’t drink all that often anymore, but when I do, my tolerance is even lower now. Having this breathalyzer really helps me pace myself. You’re supposed to wait 20 minutes after drinking before testing, so I try to be mindful of that 20 minute pause, and then test. I can now gauge how much I’m being impacted by each drink. I’m a numbers person, so being able to see a number and quantify the effects of each drink really helps me self monitor. I’m sure most people use it to make sure they are safe to drive. We will use it for that too. But helping to prevent blackouts was a huge appeal for me. I know not everyone experiences that with alcohol, but if you’re someone that does black out easily, you know how scary that can be. I’m really happy I bought this!”
“I am so glad I got this. It is so easy to do and in the long run could save you from harming yourself or someone else. Small enough to keep in your purse. My husband and I always use it. I plan to get one for my kids.”
“Part of my job and sales is to take clients out for lunch or dinner. Social drinking is a thing. This helps me keep in touch with my responsibilities.”
