- By Marcella from Collinsville OK USA on Friday, July 09, 2021
- Pros: Good price
- Cons: Would like a better clip/hook option
- Review: This is a very sensitive carbon monoxide detector, alerting to levels as low as 25ppm and up to >400ppm. It gives different beeps for different levels detected with sticker on the back of the unit to let you know what the level is. I had hooked the unit on my shoulder harness, had the canopy and vents open, and with starting the engine the monitor alerted me CO level of 25ppm briefly! There is also a bright small light on the front that will flash in synch with the beeps.

Cockpit Carbon Monoxide Detector
- By John from Ocala on Saturday, August 21, 2021
- Pros: Small, light weight with easy to see alarm light and easy to hear alarm sound.
- Cons: Include velcro strips for mounting and label the on/off switch.
- Review: Small, light weight with great alarm. However, it would be nice if it came with a velcro strip for mounting in the event you did not want to use the visor clip.

A CO detector like this has been needed in GA
- By Paul the Mooney Driver from Canyon Lake TX USA on Monday, May 20, 2019
- Pros: Perfect sized, well constructed, clips on, easy to test, replaceable battery ... you name it. Seems fairly priced.
- Cons: No issues here.
- Review:
This is a great (small) sized CO detector that has a small readily available replaceable battery. You tuck it (it can clip on) where you can get to it/see it in the cockpit. It's in the pilot's side pocket. You turn it on and LEAVE it on -- then replace the battery (should last two years) at every Annual just to have plenty of battery time left. You can press-to-test it before flight easily (it's part of the pre-start mental checklist.)
Of course, we expect that it detects well -- and have no reason to think otherwise. I've had the stick-on cardboard detectors that didn't convey confidence. I've had a super-expensive detector that they use in mines, that you could NOT replace the battery in (but the manufacturer didn't let you know that until you called about what kind of battery to insert.) This detector conveys dependability. It's well made. - Was this review helpful to you? Yes No 13 Other people found this review helpful.

Small- Clips to Bonanza Sunvisor
- By Bonanza Bill from Georgetown TX USA on Friday, April 15, 2022
- Pros: Small
- Cons: Not sure how much is needed to trigger the alarm in layman terms.
- Review: I tested it near my vehicle exhaust and it went off immediately. Have not had any indications in the cock pit with or with out the heater. I keep forgetting to hold it near the open window while I taxi and check for an alarm. I do depress the test button each preflight. As a person that nearly died from CO in a C-150 with a cracked exhaust I would recommend having some kind of CO detector. Any kind!

It's a No-Brainer!!!
- By A Customer on Monday, January 30, 2023
- Review:
Used it while conducting my Checkride prep with my instructor for my upcoming Checkride. Turned on my defrost because of foggy windshield until it cleared. As we were into my maneuvers the unit went off loud and light was flashing. Turned off the defrost and opened front vents and pilot side window to clear out carbon. My instructor was very impressed with the unit and we continued on with no issues. Had an amazing Checkride prep. Unit works SWIMMINGLY!! Will always have this unit with me in every aircraft that I fly in. Its a No-Brainer!! Not trying to become a NTSB accident report. I have a second unit from Honeywell home Carbon Monoxide detector as well. It showed 30ppm but never went off. This unit went off right away.

Very sensitive!
- By Case from Williams AZ USA on Tuesday, December 15, 2020
- Pros: Loud and sensitive
- Cons:
- Review:
It was activated in the first 5 minutes of being airborne. Landed and Pulled into the Mx shop to evaluate cause. Sure enough, Mx found several holes hidden in the firewall, leftover from previous penetrations of old systems. I now pair this electronic method of CO detection, with the little dot placard that changes color. I figure the beeping alarm on one, will alert me to look at the other.

Best bang for the buck
- By Parke from Oakland CA USA on Friday, August 02, 2024
- Pros: Great value, long life
- Cons: Cannot adjust levels at which alarm triggers
- Review: Far less expensive than other options and lasts longer (most others need sensor replaced every two years). I can confirm that it works -- I had a leaky exhaust gasket and the alarm sounded and light blinked indicating somewhere between 25-100 ppm in the cockpit.

Great back-up detector
- By IdaPilot from New Plymouth ID USA on Saturday, July 17, 2021
- Pros: Price and product lifespan
- Cons: On/off status not obvious, Form factor, and ease of mounting within field of view of pilot.
- Review: I wanted two detectors from different manufacturers. This detector was less money and had a much longer lifespan. It isn’t obvious when it is on or off. I think it is important for the detector to be in view. The visor clip may be really convenient for a car, not so much for a plane. I’ve placed this on the cabin side-pocket on co-pilot side of my Cessna 182. There other detector I purchased was easily mounted on the instrument panel with a small square of Velcro…and has been become my primary detector for ease of use and direct visibility.

As expected
- By Nick from Seattle, WA on Monday, May 15, 2023

- Cons: Could be built a little stronger
- Review: Works great, as expected, great value. Case has popped open a few times when dropped, but it snaps right back together.

Best part long lasting sensor simple operation
- By Jerry RV-4 pilot from Brunswick OH USA on Wednesday, January 31, 2024
- Pros: Long sensor life, easy operation, compact size.
- Cons: No display like my last one for remaining battery or sensor life.
- Review: Very compact, I Velcro it to my panel and part of the checklist is to turn it on each flight. It has a long lasting sensor, longer than any of the other ones in this approximate price range. Long lasting battery life. And easy operation. Just a switch for on/off and a test button and led light. Only reason it is 4 instead of 5 stars is because I've never detected CO with it yet (hope never to!). Recommend.
