Breathalyzer - a special device designed to detect the level of intoxication of a person through a quick analysis of exhaled air. The resulting result is usually measured in ppm (one thousandth). Such devices can be used for different purposes, but most often they are used by the traffic police during the inspection of road users, as well as in the production. Alcohol testers are popular among the drivers themselves, since the presence of such a gadget contributes to self-control and often helps to avoid unpleasant consequences.
Professional meters in online stores are rare, and their acquisition there is meaningless (since the readings of devices that have not passed special certification in the Russian Federation do not have legal force), but models for personal use are very much in demand. In this review, we have collected 5 of the best breathalyzers of this type, available for purchase on AliExpress.
TOP-5 breathalyzers with AliExpress
5 Kebidume SKU004162
Price for Aliexpress: from 208 rub.
Rating (2019): 4.8
The most inexpensive version of the breathalyzer of the variety of devices that we managed to find on the Chinese service of selling goods. But not always cheap means bad - the device is quite suitable for individual use. Moreover, it boasts the presence of a display and a very nimble response (the test process will take no more than 10 seconds). Another thing is that the measurement accuracy here is not at all high (since primitive sensors are used for air analysis), but an ordinary person will hardly notice this, since Kebidume does his main task (to determine the mere presence of alcohol in the blood) with a bang. The gadget works from 2 AAA batteries (they are not included in the package). Due to the low cost, many users have concerns about the reliability of the device, but there have been no significant complaints about this in the reviews.
4 Greenwon Alcohol Tester
Price for Aliexpress: from 703 rub.
Rating (2019): 4.8
Externally, Greenwon looks a lot like a small car toy keychain and I must say that this design looks very strange - wearing this device in conjunction with the keys is clearly not the best idea, given the sensitivity of the sensors installed inside. The device itself looks as simple as possible and differs little from other similar devices: the same plastic case with a mouthpiece at the end (air inlet), a small display and a sound signal. In the delivery set there is an instruction in Russian and a set of six spare mouthpieces. Additionally, we also note the presence of a backlight, which is very convenient, since it is often necessary to check the level of alcohol occurs at night.
3 Greenwon 838
Price for Aliexpress: from 703 rub.
Rating (2019): 4.9
Another product of the Greenwon 838 family, featuring a non-standard design - in the assembled position it resembles a classic Zippo lighter. The built-in display in passive mode shows the current time, which is also quite an interesting solution, not typical for this segment of goods. According to its characteristics, it does not particularly stand out among its analogs (it is powered by batteries, the screen is backlit, the measurement is accompanied by an audible signal), but then all the available functions work properly and reliably. Measurement results are available in all popular units:% BAC, mg and ppm per liter.
2 TIROL AT6000
Price for Aliexpress: from 409 rub.
Rating (2019): 4.9
If you carefully examine the reviews for a significant part of the goods of the type described, then you might think that Alcohol Testers take only for one purpose - so that there is an extra reason to drink alcohol and check how well the purchased device works. Buyers complain very rarely about the results very rarely, and this is mainly due to improper exhalation or lack of understanding of the principle of the apparatus. Therefore, when comparing different models to each other, as a rule, it is not the overall superiority in quality that comes up (it is quite difficult to determine it for the reasons described above), but all sorts of trifles and details. Thus, the AT6000 stands out among its colleagues with an increased resource (one set of batteries is enough for 2000 measurements), an informative display (in addition to the test results, the progress of the current battery status, units of measurement and other hints) and an inexpensive price.
1 Greenwon AT818
Price for Aliexpress: from 1407 rub.
Rating (2019): 5.0
The model is rather expensive for both the personal-use Alcohol Tester segment, but the manufacturer tried to justify the cost at once with a whole range of different functions and features. Here you and the self-diagnostic system, which allows to improve the accuracy of the analysis (by minimizing the influence of extraneous factors), and a seemingly pleasant design, and high reliability of the device (it works at temperatures from -10 to +50 degrees). And together with the device itself, not only spare caps are included, but also a special case for storage, as well as instructions in Russian. It is quite difficult to reliably determine the level of accuracy of the AT818, but judging by the reviews, it is quite high (several customers had to compare the instrument readings with the results of professional police testers and they were almost identical).
