The transdermal “alcohol” detector, SCRAM, is a complete fraud.  This device does not read ONLY ethanol (C2H6O) and can detect many other compounds generated in the bodies of SOBER individuals.

If this cheap, unsophisticated electrochemical fuel cell bracelet is utilized in this manner, it will be state mandated fraud. The results of the device are NOT inherently ethanol; this is simply the misapplication, misuse, and mislabeling of the functionality and results of the simple fuel cell. Only a gas chromatograph mass spectrometer can distinguish ethanol from other hydroxyl group compounds.  There are three GCMS machines at Hites Laboratory at Indiana University.  We can make them available to test the SCRAM units, to ensure they’re ethanol specific, as the law requires.  I’ll assure you they are not. 

SCRAM is unethical, pseudoscientific, and a dilution of both the disciplines of law and science.

NO TO SCRAM.  

NO TO IGNITION INTERLOCK.  

NO TO ELECTROCHEMICAL FUEL CELL FRAUD!!
