I have one of these in my shop. Its a model CO800 something.
The dummies that built it didn't put a brand name on it. I
think it was about $25.00 US. It works great anyway. I had a
car running outside one day and I opened a man door and
entered the shop. A little exhaust must have come in with me.
That thing went off... very loud! It took about 5 minutes
for it to clear. There is one that is advertised that is more
expensive... the NightHawk. I believe it even indicates the
level of CO somehow. I wouldn't have a shop without one... or
a home for that matter.
