Our Customers
For over 20 years, BACtrack has created accurate breathalyzers for consumers, businesses, schools, clinics, hospitals, the military, and law enforcement. Our customers trust us to offer the best in convenient, affordable, reliable blood-alcohol testing.
Our History
In 2001 a senior in Economics at University of Pennsylvania conceived of and began BACtrack at a time when breathalyzers were only for law enforcement, and used only when it was too late. Keith Nothacker drove to California with a plan: change how the world drinks by showing them the numbers. He focused exclusively on breathalyzers and created consistent, reliable, technologically-advanced products to build BACtrack into a trusted brand now sold in 25 countries.
