Most of my friends like to drink, but like me have a lot to lose, so if they blow say a .085 I know they will stay in place for quite awhile.


One thing I learned tonight. After quite few drinks at home I blew a .081...DUI! But if I took some water and waited 15 minutes I blew below, if I took a sip of beer and blew I was .3ish.


So the time between the last drink and when you blow really counts! They say 20 minutes after the last drink gives the most accurate readings and after my testing tonight I think that is correct.

This weekend I'm going to buy a 12 pack of Coors Light and equate Coors to BAC should be a fun and interesting night.

I believe knowledge is power and I want accurate results which is why I bought pretty much a LEO grade breathalyzer.
