Disclosed is a hand-held device for analyzing the alcohol content found in expelled respiratory gas, the device comprising an outer analyzer housing, a gas analysis and readout assembly, and a control circuit. The expulsion of respiratory gas into the device rotates a fan member. The number of revolutions of the fan member generates a revolution signal that is compared to a predetermined revolution value programmed into the control circuit.
