[QUOTE="Bri-guy, post: 124397, member: 1444"] I would be a little leery of relying one one of these. I have had a number of DUI cases where the actual blood alcohol content is MUCH different than the PBT -- and this is from the PBT being used by law enforcement. I recently had one where it was off by .11%! Guy blew a .20 on the PBT and blew a 0.09 at the station. It is commonly off by 0.03-0.05% from the actual test. That's why they are inadmissible in Court to prove the actual BAC. There are a lot of variables that make it more or less reliable -- like how hard you blow and how recently you had alcohol in your mouth. Too many variables to make it reliable on any given night.
