Breathalyzer EK918 Portable Fuel Cell Sensor Alcohol Meter

Product Information

The Breathalyzer EK918 is a device that measures blood alcohol concentration (BAC) in the breath. It is equipped with alarms that sound when the BAC value exceeds a certain level. The device is calibrated by engineers and can be used right out of the box. The package includes a breathalyzer, 10 mouthpieces, a USB cable, a user manual, and a storage bag. The device has a mouthpiece, LCD screen, power button, M button, vent, buzzer, charging port, and charging indicator.

Product Usage Instructions

1. To take a test, press the power button to turn on the device. The device will begin counting down from 10 and needs 10 seconds to preheat.
2. When the timer expires, the screen will display START.
3. Within 20 seconds of the start, the user should begin blowing into the mouthpiece. Continue blowing for at least 5 seconds.
4. Do not make changes or press buttons on the device during this step. The device will take a moment to analyze and then display the result on the screen. The result will be displayed for 15 seconds, and the device will then return to the home screen.

Test Results

• Safe Level Detected: If the result value is lower than the warning value, the device will beep once to indicate a safe level was detected.
• Warning Level Detected: If the result value is between the warning value and the danger value, the device will emit a warning series of three beeps.
• Dangerous Level Detected: If the result value is higher than the danger value, the device will beep continuously for 15 seconds.

Testing Tips

• Wait 20 minutes after eating, drinking, or smoking before testing.
• Do not block the air outlet while blowing.
• The testing data from this device cannot be used in court.
