A personal Breathalyzer with freaky social skills (pictures)
The $149.99 BACtrack Mobile Breathalyzer is easy to carry, reads BAC levels quickly, and syncs with iPhones over Bluetooth. It also features scary social features you may want to think twice about using, such as sharing breath alcohol levels via Facebook and Twitter, plus pushing location and other data to the cloud.
What sets the BACtrack Mobile Breathalyzer apart from traditional consumer breath analyzers is its ability to pair with an iPhone over Bluetooth and talk to a companion mobile app.
The BACtrack is rated to provide about 500 readings on a single charge. When its battery needs a refill, connect its charging cable to its Micro-USB port.
Equipped with disposable plastic tips in the box, the BACtrack Mobile Breathalyzer lets you test the BAC levels of friends, too. The tips are designed to placate the more hygienically squeamish by attaching to the BACtrack's mouthpiece.
The BACtrack Mobile Breathalyzer ships with its own zip-up case for easy storage in bags and pockets. You also get three plastic tips for the mouthpiece.
The BACtrack can collect data about how you drink, then post it online for all to see. Called BACtrack WorldView, the Google Maps-based map shows details such as username, time, location, BAC level, and even photos if you add them.
