We all love drinking beer, but knowing when to say when is as important as deciding which bottle to open next. We tested three pocket breathalyzers, each designed to help you make the right choice.
Alcomate Revo
Notes: Testers liked the standalone design of the Alcomate Revo. Compared to the other two units tested, the Revo is larger in size but doesn’t require connection to a smartphone app in order to function, so if you drain your phone battery checking in beers at the bar, you’re not at risk. Functionally, they found the Alcomate to be very, very sensitive to false high readings if they recently had a drink and tested sooner than recommended, and the blood alcohol reading at times dropped as much as .05 over the course of minutes. However, the second, later reading was very accurate and confirmed by results from other units.
