BACtrack S75 Pro Breathalyzer
According to a product description: The new 2010 BACtrack S75 Pro is the most affordable BACtrack fuel-cell model ever available! [It] is a stunning combination of accuracy, affordability, and style. The S75 has been designed to reduce unnecessary size and weight, while maintaining all the accuracy benefits of a full-sized fuel-cell-based breathalyzer. And because it is priced at a groundbreaking $149.99 and has obtained FDA 510(k) clearance, this professional technology is now directly available for both consumer and professional use. ...The BACtrack S75 Pro employs highly-accurate Xtend fuel cell sensor technology, which allows it to be used for professional and medical testing applications. When accuracy is key, count on the S75 Pro's Xtend Fuel Cell Sensor technology for the following benefits: * It will not show a false positive for someone who is diabetic or on a low calorie diet. Other semiconductor breathalyzer models will sometimes show a false positive result for these individuals. * It provides more accurate and more consistent results as compared with semi-conductor models. For example, with the S75 Pro, you are more likely to show the same test result when you test someone repeatedly in a very short period of time. * It can remain accurate for up to thousands of tests. * It is more accurate at higher BAC concentrations. For example, if someone is very intoxicated, say 0.22 %BAC, the S75 Pro is more likely to provide an accurate test result as compared to semiconductor models, which often lose accuracy at higher BAC values. This is called linearity of response. Like the BACtrack S80 Pro, the S75 Pro also uses a miniature air pump inside the product to more accurately collect a breath sample. During use, you can actually feel the "click" of the pump collecting the breath sample. The fast-expanding BACtrack range now includes the following breathalyzers, in ascending order of list price (from $69.99 to $249.99): *
Select S30 Here is what the company says about them: BACtrackâs patent-pending BluFire technology combines an advanced software algorithm with a patented air-intake design. This technology provides accurate and trusted results suitable for professional alcohol testing applications. The Select Series uses ActiveSensor technology to quickly estimate blood alcohol content. The BACtrack breathalyzer incorporates a number of features to maximize the accuracy of every test. Each test requires a deep lung air sample, helping to ensure that your breath sample reflects your true blood alcohol content. If an insufficient sample is blown, the Inverse LCD display clearly notifies the user to perform another test. These features make the BACtrack an excellent choice for professional groups needing to screen for the presence of alcohol. Even the BACtrack's unique user operation helps to provide extremely consistent test results. By exhaling with the mouth open from one half inch away, users create a steady and repeatable air sample that can be quickly analyzed by the BACtrack's BluFire Sensor Technology. Although the BACtrack packs this professional power, it was also designed for easy consumer use. It NEVER requires individual mouthpieces to be inserted, touched, or replaced. This keeps users from accidentally sharing saliva on the same mouthpiece. It is also a huge cost savings as there are never mouthpieces to purchase and replace. And of course, the BACtrack has that instant 'wow' factor. The unique BluFire light tubes attract attention and makes everyone want to test their alcohol level. The S75 Pro is so new, as of this writing, that I have been unable to find any independent reviews of it in the media. However, its sister product, the BACtrack B70, has been extensively featured, and you can find numerous links to reviews, articles and other reports at the Breathalyzer.net website. * Get the Latest Price on the BACtrack S75 Pro Breathalyzer.
