Passive Alcohol Sensor (William Leaf)
notes: label: Description
content: Adaptation of a PAS (passive alcohol sensor) wand. This model contains a sensor but no flashlight. It is shorter and has a belt clip, which enabled the officer to drop it into a ring attached to the belt, quickly. Manufactured by William A. Leaf, who had a little electronics shop in Maryland. He basically copied the Nippon-Seiki concept but shortened the device and added a clip for the belt. (William A. Leaf of Preusser Research Group [PRG]), who completed some NHTSA contracts.
