What it does for you
You get fast, dependable breath-alcohol readings without any faff. The C6 is dead easy to use and small enough to pop on your keys, so it’s there when you need it.

Practical use cases
Use it after a night out to check whether you’re fit to drive, before you pick the kids up, or if you’ve had a lunchtime drink and aren’t 100% sure. It’s ideal for first-time users who don’t want to carry bulky kit — just blow, wait for the reading, and make an informed call. If you’re curious about calibration or service life, the app and manual will prompt you when a calibration’s due; keep the sensor dry and tucked away when not in use to help it last.
Why it’s worth having
The C6 is a sound bit of kit: convenient, accurate and simple to use. It takes the guesswork out of deciding whether you should drive and gives clear numbers you can rely on. No complicated setup, no heavy kit to lug about, and the option to pair with your phone for logging makes it a tidy, modern gadget — especially handy on cold winter nights or after a busy evening.
If you’re unsure whether a particular phone will pair, it’s sensible to check compatibility with the BACtrack app before buying. Otherwise, expect a straightforward, user-friendly device that helps keep you and others safer on the road.
