Sitting between the Lite 2 and Elite 3, the Special Edition 2 breathalyser adds a dual colour screen and alcohol readings to two decimal places in additional to the spec of the Lite 2.

Description

At a glance:

An enhanced special edition of the Lite 2 breathalyser
Adds dual colour screen (screen changes red when close to or over limit) and two decimal place readings (for example, 0.54)
Easy to Use, clear results in seconds
Intermediate level semi-conductor alcohol sensor
Adjustable drink drive limit to any UK or Irish limit
Does not measure breath sample volume or flow

Designed in the UK by AlcoSense’s award winning team, the AlcoSense™ Special Edition 2 (SE2) is the successor to the highly acclaimed AlcoSense™ SE

Like all AlcoSense™ products, the Special Edition 2 (SE2) has been designed to be as easy as possible to use. To do a breath test all you need to do is turn the unit on, wait for it to count down to zero and then blow until it beeps. Easy!

Designed in Britain with exceptional pedigree

The Special Edition 2 (SE2) has a new sleek, pocket sized design. Measuring only 110mm high x 21mm deep x 46mm wide and weighing less 150 grams (including batteries), it can be discretely carried in a pocket or handbag.

Any Limit in Ireland, Scotland or the rest of the UK

The AlcoSense™ Special Edition 2 (SE2) reads across all limits currently used in the UK and Ireland and the don’t drive alert can be adjusted by the user to any of those limits.

Easy to Understand Results

AlcoSense™ Special Edition 2 (SE2) shows your level of intoxication in ‰BAC (per mille blood alcohol content) in increments of 0.01 ‰BAC, along with easy to understand alerts if you are close to or over your set drink drive limit, showing a don't drive symbol and changng red. See the screen shtos below.

Under the limit the result is displayed in increments of 0.01 ‰BAC

Close to and over the user-set limit, the screen changes red and a don’t drive alert is displayed

Sleek Pocket-Sized Design

The AlcoSense™ Special Edition 2 (SE2) comes from the same design team that developed the AlcoSense Excel, Pro and Ultra, winners of the 2018 German Design Award and the 2016 Red Dot Product Design Award. Pocket sized, it can discretely be kept anywhere. AlcoSense™ SE 2 measures only 110mm (height) x 45mm (width) x 21mm (depth). It is powered by 3 x AAA batteries meaning that you can use it anywhere at any time.

Easy Maintenance and Recalibration Alerts

The AlcoSense™ Special Edition 2 (SE2) has an ASC feature, manually selected by the user, which is a deep clean of the sensor and should be undertaken periodically to remove contaminents like residue and oxidisation from the sensor.

The Special Edition 2 (SE2) now also features a calibration reminder after 12 months or 300 tests so you can easily remember to have your breathalyser recalibrated and ensure ongoing accuracy.

Use it Again & Again

Using the latest semi-conductor sensor technology and innovations AlcoSense™ Special Edition 2 (SE2) can be used up to 300 times between calibrations meaning you will never be caught short. Please note, the Special Edition 2 (SE2) does not actively clear residual alcohol from the sensor after each test meaning if you test twice in quick succession, residual alcohol from the previous test may affect the result of the following test. Please wait 5 minutes between tests. If you wish to test more frequently than this please consider one of our models higher up the range.

Accurate

Every AlcoSense™ unit is tested for accuracy three times before leaving our factory. As a result, our quality control is arguably the best in the industry meaning that you can have 100% faith in our products.

AlcoSense™ Special Edition 2 (SE2) has industry leading accuracy at this price point of +/-0.2 ‰BAC. Please note: the Special Edition 2 (SE2) does not measure breath sample volume or flow rate which increases the accuracy of the readings, if greater accuracy is required please see our models further up the range.

Why Delay?

Part of the responsible enjoyment of alcohol is to understand its effect on the body and to understand when you are safe to drive, AlcoSense™ helps people do exactly that and takes out the potentially fatal guess work the morning after. Don’t leave it to chance, order yours today.

Excellent product at an extraordinary price by 19jra74 on 12/02/2021

I bought this product at Lidl just over a week ago and was a little dubious about how good it would be as it seemed too cheap. Everything about this item is great from its simple, straightforward instructions to the accuracy and quality of the product. This does exactly as stated on the box. A must-have product for anyone worried about being over the drink-drive limit the next day. This product would still be a bargain at three times the price.

Wife reccomends by Sylvester on 29/12/2020

I bought my wife an Alcosense for her car, and she has found it to be very informative in the morning when she is at greatest risk of accidentally driving while over the limit.
She would recommend it to all as a must for the Party goers morning car, and the morning car of anyone who likes a tipple in the late evening, but relies on driving for part or all of their livelihood.
She would not have the car without it now.
I have used it on occasion to be sure to be sure.

Solid entry level product by Ciaran on 28/12/2020

Bought the SE2 in Lidl as a a last resort. General rule of thumb I rarely need to use it and that is best way to be but if I am ever in juristiction where it is required or I am in doubt, it is there. Best if I never need to use it.

I would draw your attention to the higher margin or error, you have to go to higher price point for more accurate devices but all in all it is simple to use and manual is very clear.

First rate bargain. Excellent value, easy to use, seems accurate by Tim on 26/12/2020

I already had an Alcosense excel, which I bought from Halfords to use to check how various drinking patterns and amounts affected my blood alcohol levels. I bought the SE2 model, discounted in Lidl just before Christmas, to keep in my car. In fact the SE2 readings are very close to those is get from the excel, so I am very pleased with it. The instructions are very clear and there is a short but very informative description about how alcohol consumption patterns affect blood alcohol levels over time. Alcosense is an innovative company which will keep us all safer on the roads. Top marks

AlcoSense SE2 Breathalyzer - An excellent product. by Sharon on 25/12/2020

Bought this from Lidl's a week ago, and it was very simple to setup, and very easy to use. I had worked out the exact number of units I had consumed after a drinking session, and the time I had started drinking, then based my expected time of being in the clear again (based on 1 hour per unit), and when I took a breath test the next morning after the worked out time to be clear, the reading came back as 'LO'. So I'm happy that it appears to be accurate. Overall I highly recommend this product.

Special edition 2 test by Barry on 22/12/2020

I was surprised how accurate the Special edition 2 was. Purley in the interest of science I ordered a second pint with my fish and chips to enable be to test this new gadget. Over the last 50 years or so I have been invited by the police to test out their breathalysers on a hand full of occasions. (I no longer speed so have not been stopped for a while now- would recommend the advanced driving test). On a couple of the occasions, I had exceeded my limit of 2 pints by an additional 0.5pint. On all occasions I passed the police breath test. The first one was a Dräger tube but now they seem to be electronic with just had 3 lights. My tests have all shown the green light. (except maybe in Spain but I hadn’t a clue what he was saying as he did not speak English. I think they may have a lower limit but he let me on my way).
The test after 2 pints was 0.7 confirming I was safe to drive home. I am not sure if an additional 0.5 pint would have resulted in a 0.8 reading. Maybe a test for when I can get the wife to drive.
Forty minutes later the reading had dropped to 0.47. A great produce and at an amazing price from Lidl.
I thought this would product would produce an accurate result as it is the first one, I have brought that offers a calibration service. Great value accurate and 5 stars.

Peace of mind for a very reasonable price by William on 20/12/2020

I bought this recently to take the guess work out blood alcohol limit.
Simple to use with clear instructions. Getting the correct breath takes a little practice and the online product video helped to get this right. I am impressed with the ability to set the unit up for a wide range of country limits, as I drive across Europe and in Canada. The only negative point and why this doesn’t get 5 stars is in the small print. “The AlcoSense 2 cannot be used to comply with French law.” A small but important point.

Very easy to use breathalyser by sam5 on 19/12/2020

Bought at Lidl on 18/12/20. I found this breathalyser very easy to use. I had a couple of glasses of wine and tried it out an hour later and not surprisingly it advised not to drive. I could see the reading come down an hour later. Easily switchable for different BAC limits in other countries. Recommended.

Seems a really great product for a reasonably affordable price by suzyM on 18/12/2020

Purchased 2 of these from Lidl on 10/12/2020 - appears to give a far more accurate/precise reading than a couple of cheaper ones I have bought on the internet. Tested last weekend (when I didn't have to go out) and my cheap ones gave a reading of 0% Bacs but my new AlcoSense Special Edition 2 gave readings of 'LO' or a Bacs number below the drink drive limit

The 'MUST HAVE' device to infom any decision to travel by Colin D on 17/12/2020

Just purchased my second AlcoSense, which is a clever and simple to use product with clear interface, providing that essentail piece of mind when enjoying a few festive drinks over the Holiday Season, to inform decision for safe travel the morning after. An absolute 'MUST HAVE' for either personal use, or to those you love at any time of year. The AlchoSense Limited Edition 2 is presently available in Lidl Ireland, from 17th December at the unbeliveably competative price of €39.99, so this could make a suberb gift for loved ones and friends!

So Far So Good by CJD on 17/12/2020

excellent product by ian on 17/12/2020

I never knowingly drink and drive, but it's always a concern as to how long to leave it after a drink, before it is safe to drive. Particularly around Christmas when there are more random police breathalyser checks. This excellent product takes the guesswork out of this and is well worth the price to save my driving license.

SE2 from Lidl by Martin on 16/12/2020

I bought the SE2 as a replacement for my old Zero. Much better software plus clear and concise instructions. Rather than simply checking whether you are over the limit, a breathalyser allows you to understand the way your body actually processes alcohol so that you can avoid any risks in the first place!

Rating

Great device by Helzbelz on 16/12/2020

I have only recently bought and set up this device from Lidl at half the price so am pleased I have saved money. I have used it once and it is very simple to use. I need it mainly to check the morning after drinking before I drive. I am hoping it is useful over Christmas. The only reason I have given 4 instead of 5 stars is because I haven't tested it enough to give detailed review.

Great reassuring tool by James C on 16/12/2020

Excellent device by Rudi on 16/12/2020

For that price you can't get anything better , a week of testing after of course a dose of alcohol let me say that it's really reliable and accurate .It's as well very easy to use ( bought one for my parents and they're not up to date with gadgets) one don't need a PhD to actually operate the alcosense. Would highly advise getting one .

A very useful product at a very fair price by Wojer on 15/12/2020

Using the SE2 is straightforward provided that you read the instructions carefully. I was able to follow the drop in my BAC over a couple of hours until it had dropped to a level safe to drive. It is compact and so easy to keep handy.

Purchased SE2 by Mr Green on 14/12/2020

I have looked around at other testers but settled for the SE2 as I was reassured this would provide accuracy for such a critical issue where mistakes are not permitted (live and death outcomes). The positive reviews added further confidence to my choice. Easy set up and use and will be using frequently over the festive period.

This is a great product at a great price in Lidl by LUDWIG on 11/12/2020
