AlcoSense Elite 3 features inbuilt air flow sensors to increase accuracy of the breathalyser in real world use, not only the lab.The most accurate concentration of alcohol in the breath is in the deep lung air and can only be measured after 1.2 litres of air has been blown out. The Elite 3 does not measure the volume of breath blown out (the Excelupward do), but it does sample the breath for 6 seconds which, for the average person, will include deep lung air.

An affordable and reusable tool for testing your blood-alcohol levels...a useful device, particularly for the morning after the night before. . "Firstly let me explain that I am in no way connected to AlcoSense and have not received any “reward” for providing this review, it is a genuine unbiased and truthful review. Using the latest technology and innovations, such as sensor algorithm and automatic sensor maintenance, AlcoSense™ Elite 3 can be used again and again whilst maintaining better accuracy. we think the AlcoSense Digital Breathalyser Lite will indeed give you a good guide as to whether you are risking driving over the allowed limit." We live in Scotland so there was a bit of adjusting of minute toggle switches to set it up. Fiddling around with a paper clip to finally finish off the calibration. Uses similar fuel cell technology as the UK police, so is comparable with theirs with regards to accuracy. See the Top Gear YouTube video as evidence of this.
