Customer Reviews

If you can afford the Alcohawk Pro, buy it instead
I actually bought both the Alcohawk Slim Digital and the Alcohawk Pro a year ago for two cars, one for me and my fiancee. Although the Alcohawk Pro is more expensive, over $120.00 vs. $49.00 the difference in the product is enormous.

The Alcohawk pro version works like magic, you really only have to wait about 5 seconds to blow in the tester, and you get your BAC result right away. I have used it many times and haven't had to change the battery so far.

The Alcohawk Slim Digital Tester, on the other hand, takes forever to calibrate once you push the start button. Instead of 60 seconds, you're really waiting over three minutes before you can blow in the mouthpiece. You have to take a very deep breath, and it takes about 10 seconds to see your results. Sometimes you won't even get a result, then you have to wait over two minutes for the device to recalibrate itself, all over again. About three months ago I changed the batteries assuming that it was the reason why it was not turning on properly, but that did not solve the problem. I had to blow in the mouthpiece repeatedly and wait for about 10 minutes, I just gave up.

Bottom Line: If you can afford the Alcohawk Pro which is 3 times more expensive, you will not be disappointed. The cheap price of the Slim tester version makes up for the delayed time and inferior quality of the product.

Great Tester
The device is great. It calibrates automatically once you turn it on, and gives you a quick and accurate reading. This product is great ESPECIALLY when considering the cost. I was hesitant to buy it because of the other review, but am glad I did because its much cheaper than the other devices and works flawlessly so far.

Works as Described
Easy to use. Works as described. I bought it as a lark - just to see exactly how "drunk" I was. It's been fun at parties & drinking w/friends. However, having a measuring stick for alcohol has really slowed down my consumption - which no doubt is a good thing. I'd compare this benefit to counting calories. When counting calories, one tends to eat less & eat healthier. This breathylizer has the same effect. I'd love to find a breath tester for calories! By the way, one of this products greatest advantages is that it is SLIM & you can easily slip it into a pocket, or purse, and carry it with you anywhere. You don't have to leave it in your car! (keeping in mind that most of us with a blood alcohol level over .08 would find it difficult to go back into the party & call for a cab, after we've already ventured out & warmed-up the car. THIS IS A TOOL THAT YOU WANT TO BE ABLE TO CARRY WITH YOU AT ALL TIMES).
