Blew 0.06 on SCRAM RB-210 this morning after drinking last night — haven’t heard from PO yet, what happens now?

I drank last night and slept through my alarm. My 6am test came up I missed it but woke up right before my 10am test and I blew 0.06 on my Bactrac. I have a SCRAM RB-210 portable breathalyzer. I know I failed. There were two 15-minute countdown windows and I missed both. I still haven’t heard anything from my probation officer.

Has anyone been in this situation? Does the PO always contact you same day? What’s the typical process after a failed test? Any insight appreciated.

How can I pull this off????

Etg and Handheld RB210 Breathalyzer

Quick question for anyone who knows about this stuff 🙏 Had 1 shooter (99 proof) at 10pm and a canned margarita (12.5%) before 1am. Had to blow into a portable breathalyzer (RB-210) at 6am — it did the normal double blow but did NOT ask me to retest in 15 minutes. Does that mean I passed? Also have a dip stick UA (not sent to a lab) tomorrow at 2:30pm — should I be good for alcohol on that too? Not a lab EtG test, just a standard dip. Any insight appreciated! 💙

EtG detection time for light drinking - female metabolism?

Curious about real experiences from people who’ve had to take EtG urine tests.

For a female around 140lbs, 5’6” — how long did it actually take to clear after just two drinks? One 99 proof shooter and one 12.5% ABV canned cocktail?

Not talking about heavy drinking — just curious how much individual metabolism actually varies person to person. Did body type, food, hydration actually make a noticeable difference in your experience?

Looking for real answers not just the generic “80 hours” response everyone copy pastes.

SCRAM Remote Breath — only got one retest after 6am blow, does that mean I passed?

Looking for people with actual experience with the SCRAM Remote Breath handheld device (not the ankle bracelet).

Here’s my situation: I had 4 shots total (1 Patron, 2 rail tequila, 1 Rumple Minze) and a couple sips of a Carbliss hard seltzer. Stopped drinking around 2am. Got my scheduled alert to blow at 6am — felt pretty sober by then. I’m 27F, 5’6”, 135lbs.

The device just says “Monitoring” after every test so I never see my result. After my 6am blow it prompted me to retest once, which it also does sometimes when my face isn’t clear or the signal is bad. After that one retest it stopped completely — no more prompts.

I’ve read that if alcohol is actually detected, the device keeps prompting you to retest every 15 minutes until you blow clean. Since it only retested once and stopped, does that mean it didn’t detect alcohol? Or does it work differently?

Not looking for judgment, just real experiences from people who have actually used this device. Thanks.

Had 4 shots + a couple sips of hard seltzer, stopped at 2am, had to blow into SCRAM remote breathalyzer at 6am — anyone been in this situation?

So last night I had 4 shots total and a couple sips of a Carbliss. Stopped drinking around 2am. At 6am I got the alert to blow into my SCRAM remote breathalyzer. I felt pretty sober by then but the device just says “Monitoring” — it doesn’t show you your result at all.

I’m not on the ankle bracelet, just the remote breathalyzer. Has anyone been in a similar situation? Did you end up being okay? I know everyone metabolizes differently but just looking for real personal experiences from people who have actually been through this. Not looking for judgment, just honest answers. Thanks. I am 5’6 1/2 tall and Age 27 (F) and weight about 135lbs.
