Seems accurate enough. The FM transmitter is a nice bonus. The Bad: $90 is way overpriced for the iBreath. I got it on sale for $60, and even that is too high for the quality. It has none of the aesthetic cues of the iPhone. The male connector is missing the little metal locking ears found on genuine Apple connectors. This means that the iBreath does not securely attach to the iPhone. No big deal when using it as a breathalyzer, but it constantly disconnects when using as an FM transmitter (which seems to only work on the bottom end of the spectrum) particularly as it gets jostled in the car. The Ugly: The female connector is USB, not iPod/iPhone spec. This means the iPhone won't recharge when connected to the power adapter through the iBreath (and the iPhone always needs to be recharged). And I now have to have four power cords: iBreath, iPhone, radar detector, and Garmin GPS. The Good: Compact. Seems accurate enough. The FM transmitter is a nice bonus.
