SCRAM Ankle Monitor & Tanning Beds: Why They Don’t Mix

No. You cannot use a tanning bed while wearing a SCRAM (Secure Continuous Remote Alcohol Monitor) bracelet.

The SCRAM unit detects alcohol in sweat and transmits data to a monitoring agency. Tanning beds can interfere with sensor accuracy, potentially triggering false readings and legal consequences (probation/parole violation).

Follow all SCRAM program restrictions to avoid complications.
