Ride-Calling Breathalyzer Devices

The BACtrack C8 Lets You Know When You'll Sober Up

— March 15, 2019 — Lifestyle
The BACtrack C8 is the latest device from the brand that seeks to provide drinkers with a way to easily track their consumption and blood alcohol content (BAC) instead of relying on guesswork.

Powered by a BluFire fuel cell sensor within, the device is capable of estimating your BAC and will even provide an estimate of how long it'll be before you sober up. This could help individuals who are looking for a way to know whether or not they are actually in the condition to drive after having a drink or two to plan ahead accordingly.

The BACtrack C8 has a compact, pocket-friendly design and can come with optional Bluetooth connectivity for tracking your BAC over time via your smartphone. Rideshare connectivity will even enable users to call for a Lyft or Uber directly from the app to further prevent them from getting behind the wheel alcohol consumption.
