Gas alarms

Post by Ralf85 »

Can anybody recommend a gas alarm for camper vans? I keep meaning to buy one but have no idea what is most suitable. Cheers.

Do you mean for carbon monoxide? If so, I can post you a good one for a fiver+ p&p
It's a fire angel model CO-9X
It's about the size of a pack of smokes

Something on my list too, they were all too many tragic stories this year.

A positive attitude may not solve all your problems but it will p.iss off enough people to make it worth the effort

Cheers for that. Sorry I should have been clearer. No not carbon monoxide but a butane/propane detector was what I was thinking of.

I'm not even sure anyone makes one.

Besides, what's wrong with your nose? The damned stuff stinks to high heaven and I bet your nose would detect a leak far sooner than an electronic detector. Carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide detectors are made because you can't smell either of them.

As above, no point to one, just make sure you have the vent holes in the floor.
Silky, pm me.....
A few people have asked for these, I don't have a ever lasting supply but have a fair few.
So ask if you want one
