How to use your smartphone to figure out how drunk you are
When it comes to drinking, the responsible thing to do is to err on the side of caution. No one wants to get sloppy and make bad decisions, but sometimes those nights happen.
The BACtrack Mobile Smartphone Breathalyzer can help you determine how much you've had to drink by pairing with an app on your smartphone. The fact that this technology even exists is pretty cool. We live in the future, people.
On sale at the Mashable Shop for $79, this handy tool connects to your phone and measures your level of inebriation using a fuel cell sensor, which is the same technology used in hospitals, clinics, and law enforcement institutions. It quickly estimates your blood alcohol content (BAC) and tells you precisely when it will revert to 0.00%. It allows you to share results via text message and social media, a feature that's useful for letting people at home know not to wait up.

This device also inputs and saves BAC results, including what you drank and where, helping you monitor your consumption and analyze how your body processes alcohol. That way, you'll know how to make better decisions the next time you hit the bar.
Normally $199.99, you can get it on sale now for $79.
