I upgraded from alcosense light to alcosense pro. The alcosense pro is excellent, the customer service from alcosense was excellent and the delivery time was excellent.
All in no faults with the product or customer service.

Elite3

I had an Alcosense special edition for years and decided to upgrade to the Elite3 model. I am very happy with the upgrade.

Purchased the Pro version

Purchased the Pro version. Put it to the test the following morning after having a few at at friends house the night before. Did my test at 8am- It stated I had 1hr 52 mins left till I could drive- love this feature. Happy with purchase

Alcosense Excel - Great Product

Just received my Alcosense Excel breathalyser. Clear instructions and easy to set up. Really good quality build and does exactly as described. After much deliberation I opted for the Excel for that extra accuracy. I also bought the carry case as I think it is worth a few extra pounds to protect what is a sensitive piece of kit. Great product - very pleased

Reliable, Easy to Use, and Surprisingly Accurate!

I recently purchased this Alcosense Lite 2 device and I couldn’t be more impressed. It’s compact, easy to carry, and incredibly simple to use — perfect for both personal and professional use. The instructions were clear, and the results showed up in seconds.

What really stood out to me was the accuracy. I tested it multiple times under different conditions and compared it with a professional-grade breathalyzer, and the results were nearly identical. It gave me peace of mind before driving and helped set clear boundaries when hosting friends or events.

The battery life is solid, and the build quality feels durable despite its sleek design. If you're looking for a trustworthy alcohol tester that doesn't break the bank, this is definitely worth it. Highly recommend!

Excellent product / Utmärkt produkt

I bought an AlcoSense pro and an universal carry bag in march 2025 through Elgiganten in Sweden. I have not done the set up yet but will do that soon. Now I can feel safe after a night of partying when I get in the car the next day. AlcoSense pro can show me if I am allowed to drive or not. Super good

Jag köpte en AlcoSense pro och en universell bärväska i mars 2025 genom Elgiganten i Sverige. Jag har inte gjort installationen ännu men kommer att göra detta snart. Nu kan jag känna mig trygg efter en natts fest när jag sätter mig i bilen dagen efter. AlcoSens pro kan visa mig om jag får köra eller inte. Super bra.

At least I'm satisfied with it!

I purchased this product because I valued high accuracy and reliability the most. It's easy to use, and I like the small, stylish design. I am concerned that inserting a straw is difficult, but if it weren't this size, air would leak out, so I'm satisfied. In the following product, it may be possible to make it easier to insert a straw by incorporating a valve or soft material.

I used my AlcoSense Pro Fuel Cell Breathalyser for the first time today and was very impressed with the product.
It gave me a very accurate reading which enabled me to judge if driving was possible or not.
I purchased it mainly for an upcoming European trip so I am now confident to use it while we are away.

Fantastic Product that gives you reassurance to drive

We bought the Excel version of the Breathalyzers as reassurance for our 18 year old (and us) who had recently passed her test.
She does go down the pub and to parties and having spent a few pounds on driving lessons the last thing we wanted was for her to lose her licence or even worse being involved in tragic accident because she thought it was safe to drive the following day.
This takes away the uncertainty. It is simple to use, very quick with the results and very clear whether you should drive or not.
As it clearly says on the instructions if it's green you can drive. Anything else you wait.
Probably the only slight down side that every year it needs to be sent off to be checked and recalibrated for a fee to ensure continued accuracy.
However, it is worth it when you think of the huge implications of drink driving.

Entry level breathalizer

Bought this for my son's 17th birthday. An absolute must for any teenager learning to drive. I'm hoping this will be well used and provide some clarity and understanding for him. This is an entry level tester. Worth the money compared to disposable ones. Got with an offer at Halfords so a good price. Not sure if the required calibration after a year is worth it. It looks like it's almost half the price of another unit and if the guarantee is only a year possibly not worth getting it calibrated. Will see in a year. Have not actually tried it yet so may update review later.

Great product

Great product, ordered a AlcoSense Elite 3 Breathalyser from Alcosense, comprehensive instructions, easy to use, included first set of blow tubes, easy to order, quick delivery and cost effective. Website has info on how to contact them if needed, so customer aftercare is available.

Worth that little more for confidence to drive.

Wanted surety that I was safe to drive in the morning after a social event rather than thinking I was OK. Reviewed several different products on Amz & EB; there's a huge range but the cheaper ones did not inspire confidence in such an important matter. Settled on AS Elite 3 as it has been continuously developed & is a good price point.
Collected from local Halfords having ordered online day beforehand; efficient service there.
AS Elite 3 comes well-packaged with batteries, 'blow tubes' and very clear instructions. It appears sleek, well-made, readings were what I'd expected so chuffed with purchase & would recommend.
