Review: Works great once you figure out the way to properly activate it - Bought this product to keep track of my BAC levels when drinking and also to see how accurate it was out of curiosity. It's very easy to put together and comes with a nice assortment of tips to use to gauge your BAC levels. As one other customer review excellently pointed out the manual that comes with it describes some things well such as what the BAC level means and overviews what the outside buttons do. However, it does poorly mention how you have to blow into the device for more than 11 seconds and wait for it to click in order for it to display your results. If you stop too soon, then you won't get a reading at all and it makes you seem like it's defective but it's not. You just need to blow into it longer than 11 seconds and wait for the feeling it gives you in your hand. It will feel like the device has just clicked or activated then you'll get your test results. I've tried it quite a few times and the readouts are pretty accurate based on how intoxicated I was. I do recommend this product it's a solid purchase and works well, but I just wish the manufacturer did a better job of explaining its operation.
Review: Great product - This is my 2nd time buying this. I try to replace it every 1-2 years. These are a must have for anyone who drinks. Its easy to use. We just keep it in the glove boxes. It also can be fun to use with friends... to see who is more drunk.

## Features

- PRO-GRADE ACCURACY - Powered by BACtrack's platinum-based Xtend Fuel Cell Sensor, the Element utilizes the same professional-grade technology trusted by hospitals, clinics, and even law enforcement.
- ONE-BUTTON OPERATION - The BACtrack Element is extremely easy to use. Simply insert the two included AAA batteries, power on your breathalyzer and begin testing. It's that easy.
- DOT/NHTSA COMPLIANT - Designed to meet the rigorous standards of expert alcohol screeners, from roadside law enforcement to hospital employees & treatment professionals, the Element is compliant with US DOT & NHTSA regulations for alcohol screening devices.
- SMALL & PORTABLE SIZE - The Element is BACtrack's smallest professional breathalyzer, making it easy to take with you anywhere you go. Measuring just 4.25 x 1.875 x 0.625 inches, it's much smaller than an iPhone, and easily fits in a purse or pocket.
- ONE YEAR WARRANTY - If your BACtrack Element ceases to function properly during the first year of operation, we will repair or replace the defective product at no charge.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I Trust this One
*by N***R on October 8, 2025*

Worked right out of the box. Reliable so far and seems well built. I noted lots of legal declaimers. Use it for what you need, but legally they won't be liable for anything. No surprise. We used it for wine tasting and could see the change in our alcohol levels as the day progressed.
