Does anyone have one are they any good?

If you think you may need one, then maybe you should leave the car at home.

And if it's for the morning after, then maybe not drink so much on the night before.

Not being anti-drink, but just common sense.

I was just interested in them, i never drive if I've drunk any alcohol. But would be interested to know when i have drunk how much i blow on the tester.

The general consensus on the better re-usable electronic ones (as per tests on autoexpress and similar), is that they work very well, but need recalibrating every year to remain truly accurate. The fee for that will vary depending on the manufacturer, but could be anywhere from £8 to around £30 (not sure if that includes postage either).

Just to add, I'm a very moderate drinker, even when not driving.

They are well worth having if you have the occasional heavy night. An amazing number of drink drivers are caught the morning after, still well over the limit.

BTCC was sponsored by some Alcosense breathalyzer company, they were giving them away last year,
all the drivers were made to take the tests before the races.
