With most states changing their acceptable blood alcohol level (BAC) from .1 to .08 for boaters, Alcohoot has come out with the first Smartphone breathalyzer you can take on the go.
Simply plug the breathalyzer into your Apple or Android Smartphone or tablet, download the free app, and breathe into the hardware and you can instantly know your BAC. The police-grade platinum fuel cell inside promises high testing accuracy. And measuring only 3 by 1 by 2 inches, it’s easy to store on the boat or in a bag. The highly stylized rubber encasement was even awarded the international Red Dot Design Award for 2014.
As anyone with access to the news knows, many boating accidents and deaths are unfortunately alcohol-related. At $99.99, this technology is certainly worth every penny for peace of mind. (www.alcohoot.com)
