Breathalysers from the people behind Smart Start Interlocks

Personal Breathalysers is run by the team at Smart Start Interlocks, a New Zealand provider of alcohol monitoring technology. We've been providing alcohol interlocks across New Zealand since 2013, so breath testing is what we do every day.

Why we set this up

We kept getting the same questions from customers, their families and people who'd found us online: which personal breathalyser should I buy, can I trust the cheap ones, and where can I get one calibrated? There wasn't a simple answer we could point people to, so we set up this separate site to give one.

Why only two devices

We'd rather sell two devices we're happy to stand behind than a shelf of cheap ones. Both use fuel cell sensors, the same type of sensor used in professional breath testing:

And because every breathalyser drifts over time, we calibrate them too.
