Just a question...how many of you travelers/off-roaders/campers have a carbon monoxide alarm in yer vehicle or sleeping quarters?

Been looking fer sometime now and I finally was able to source a battery based one from Kidde (Carbon Monoxide Alarm Battery Operated with Digital Display ò Model KN-COPP-B ò Part Number 900-0146) fer about $35 at Walmart last night. I wrote on the front cover the date I put it in service as there is apparently a 7-year service life on these. It's got a built-in alarm that tells you that it's reached the end of it's useful life but I would rather see it than hear it. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

The one I got has the LCD with a backlight fer the CO readings. Doesn't hurt to know if yer cabin/sleeping/driving environment might be contaminated or not. At least I can bring it in with me and leave it in the truck as I'm driving. I hope this helps someone... <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
