Amazon.com Product Description Carbon monoxide (CO) is the leading cause of accidental poisoning deaths in America, yet many people don't know they are suffering from CO poisoning until its too late. Since symptoms of CO poisoning are like the flu, you might not even know you're in danger at first. That's why a carbon monoxide alarm is an excellent way to protect your family. It can detect the CO you can't see, smell or taste in the air. The First Alert CO615 carbon monoxide alarm uses an electrochemical carbon monoxide sensor-the most accurate technology available. Installation is as simple as plugging it in to any wall outlet. Its easy-to-read backlit digital LED display gives you a clear read-out of current CO concentrations in parts per million. The alarm includes a battery back-up giving you peace of mind in a power outage. The test/silence button both silences a non-threatening alarm or low battery warning and allows you to test the unit's functionality. The unit monitors and re-alarms if carbon monoxide levels persist sounding a loud 85-decibel horn. An audible and visual low battery signal alerts you to replace the battery and an indicator alerts you when a battery has been removed. An end-of-life alarm of three chirps alerts you to replace the unit. One 9-volt battery is included. 5-year limited warranty. UL listed. --Bree Norlander What's in the Box One carbon monoxide alarm, one 9-volt battery, and user's manual

Plug and play protection July 19, 2010 Magic Jack Install 2 AA batteries, plug it in, and you're done.
It leaves one plug still open on a standard wall outlet, and you can test it with your TV remote.
Haven't had trouble with false alarms except when the kids are playing with infrared remote controlled toys.
Consumer Reports best buy July 11, 2010 Mary Winch (Holtsville, NY) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
NYS law for all condos, co-ops and rentals require CO 2 alarms installed. This is the smartest protection as it has battery back up if there's a power outage. Most stores like Home Depot and Lowes only carry the less reliable and more expensive Kidde alarms. If you're in NY I suggest you purchase through Amazon and save time shopping and money.
Top rated easy to use product June 8, 2010 Raising the Bar (Dallas, TX) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Pro:
Its a CR Best Buy.
You can plug it into a power outlet without worrying about pre-wiring.
It has a battery back-up in case of power out.
Con:
The display on the unit is not the best but then it has an audible alarm.
Since most of the power outlets in homes are at the bottom of the room. Using it with the power outlet means the unit is always at the bottom of a wall.
Overall I have had no issues with the unit and I will recommend it for anyone to buy.
Carbon Monoxide First Alert May 24, 2010 M. Hawkins (South Carolina USA) This product was easy to set up and arrived as promised. I bought it based on independent rating reviews, so I assume it work as described. I have not exposed it to CM in the home and hope it never will be.
Recommended May 20, 2010 Jeremy (Willowick, Ohio) Good instructions, easy to install, green light shows it's working but it's too bright. Recommend, based on magazine reviews and how it's been working for us.
