A 30 dollar CO detector is crap.
Unless you spend a couple hundred dollars on a good one, it's a false
sense
of security.

Would you have any evidence for this article of faith?

Nick,
You can start right here. Its on the front page

The level that CO detectors DONT alarm at is the real problem.
Happy reading.

If I were Nick, I'd next ask: Do you have any evidence *other* than
claims made on the website of a company selling the high-priced
detectors?


Sure do... look up UL-2034
Then check the data on acceptable alarm levels.
Now find a normal big box store that carries anything *but* UL listed
detectors.
Name one of those detectors that sound an alarm when the CO sensor fails.
Most people don't understand that they need to be replaced after a few
years.

It a false sense of security, PERIOD.
