Wow – good to know. From: CnC-List [mailto:cnc-list-boun...@cnc-list.com] On Behalf Of Josh Muckley via CnC-List Sent: Monday, November 27, 2017 10:11 PM To: C&C List <cnc-list@cnc-list.com> Cc: Josh Muckley <muckl...@gmail.com> Subject: Re: Stus-List CO detector choices
We use Altair atmospheric monitors to detect bad air in confined spaces where I work. The CO sensor is identified as being cross sensitive by the manufacturer and we've seen this occur during use. In fact we have been able to detect hydrogen leaks from compressed gas systems using this method.

I set mine off over charging my 8d battery. Pretty sure batteries off gas hydrogen and not Co. Anyone know how they actually work? Or is my chemistry lacking?

I replaced it with a Xintex marine CO detector. It is now old enough to need replacement or a factory refurb if they will do it. That will cost either $140 or so for new or $25 for a refurb. So I was in the hardware store and what do you know – a home CO detector for $25 brand new and it runs on batteries. Does anyone have any idea if these are suitable for a boat? I am going to get something, no way do I want people sleeping below without some kind of alarm.
