“I perchase a new one every year. Last one I bought a month ago does not work quit right. It reads 1.3 every morning even if I had a beer or two the night before. Than an hour later. It reads 0.0”
“Finally got a chance to try it after a Halloween party. I, the tea-totalling designated driver, blew .00; my passenger, who imbibed, blew a .21. That's why we got it!”
“It seemed to work when i bought it, but last night i went out and when i tried to use it it only said FL. It says in the manual that it means low flow, but it wont take a breath sample at all. Tried a new battery, but that didnt change anything.”
“There are times I eat a piece of pizza or ripe fruit and I blow a 0.1 for example.
There are other times something i'm digesting causes the breath test to not be accurate. A pretest before blowing into the intoxalyzer saves you false positives and lockouts. Also if you were drinking and think you have sobered up there are times when your body hasn't metabolized the alcohol as you expected. This thing helps you avoid lockouts and worse. A must have.”
