Re: GAS-L: Cheapest CO detector



     Scott (http://www.scottinstruments.com/products/product.cfm?ID=150)
has these little dosimeter badges if you just want that. And a multitude
of other sensors. Don't know their prices yet. But I think the really
cheap sensors are a one-time, throw-away thing, once they've been
exposed they don't clear themselves.
     These would seem to be of limited usefulness, however, when what we
really need is something to monitor the actual amounts of unburned CO so
as to facilitate the adjustments in stove design. I guess I'm not
personally over concerned about the dangers of CO (although I am well
aware of them, and have been), I've developed over the years a rather
high sensitivity to noxious vapours of all types -- simply riding a
bicycle or walking past someone smoking, for instance, or even being in
a store with lots of chemical smells --- ugh!
