thank you for watching! I think this device is worth its money and apparently works :D

Yeah no kidding :D

Thank you for sharing this! This is very important information for me !

Thank you so much! Thank you for wathching

Thank you for watching ! I will check the Figaros channel

you probably can, but I would advise to keep the batt, just in case

Thank you for watching, looks like some false positives

Does it do the same in lets say bedroom, where clearly no nat gas will be present ?

@@InsideOutElectronics yeah I moved it to several different locations, and it kept going off. I've already replaced it and the new alarm is doing ok. also you can buy canned Carbon Monoxide either online or you're local hardware store. but I recommend placing the detector in a zip lock Bag and then spraying the Carbon Monoxide into the bag and sealing it to the best of you're ability, I also recommend you do this test near a window or in the garage as to vent the bag out after the test, or you can just use a fan.

Wondering ehat does it mean

I read on the kidde website and it supposed to do that. It will show 888, then gas, then 200 range, then back to 888, then back to zero

@@ego6342 link to website? i pushed reset button 3x, flashed GAS, showed 218, 220, 219, then went 888, then zero. why it do this?

To test the alarm, press the Test/Reset button. If the alarm is operating properly, you will notice the following: • The display shows three “eights”, then shows the word “GAS” while the alarm is sounding three short “beeps”. Then, the display shows a number (usually around 200). You will then hear four quick “beeps” - followed by five seconds of silence - followed by four quick “beeps” repeating until reset stops. The unit will then show three “eights” for several seconds. It will then return to monitoring for CO and gas.

@@mr.nicemanm.d.7838 it's a test to see if it's working properly. If it doesn't follow this sequence then something is wrong. Yours is working like it's supposed to

Nope... This is very simple non-smart sensor. Would be nice to have an app for this though...

Not sure what is going on, may be backup batt is bad?

You have to plug it into the wall for it to display a 0 constantly. When it isn't connected to AC power, it will display a little dot, but the 0 will appear every minute or so.

well you hope that number stays at zero is usually is set only to detect co if the number get a certain ppm over a period of time I I am dont think they will have a reading at probably less than 35 ppm to avoid nuisance alarms I think ! you should look up the product direction online but you really should see what I said above about kiide being defective!

What?!!!! Can you please share more info on this?

I dont think the manf can counter argue anything stated in the report because if it were put to the test and used it court it could not be disproven !

Not possible just to replace plugs, this thing uses transformer powersupply, so transdormer need to be replaced first.

@@InsideOutElectronics does that mean that a simple adapter will not work? (Sorry noob here). I like this brand and wonder if there is a way to make it work on the UK socket.

Oh no, was it tiggering falsely?

@@InsideOutElectronics no, I just pressed on the test button and the alarm went off for a few seconds, no beeps, just one long straight beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep...

The smoke/etc alarm industry has not caught up yet with the fact that tinnitus is becoming rampant in society now, what's causing it no one knows, but people are avoiding installing alarms because of it. Tinnitus can be very traumatic. People who don't have it don't understand how bad it is, it's torture. They need to invent voice prompt alarms and offer different sounds. The high piercing sound is agony for tinnitus sufferers and will cause countless of them to not buy the products.

@@JoinTheProgress oh wow, i did not realize that. I did not know what is 'tinnitus' is before yoy guys mentioned it here... I will research

@@InsideOutElectronics Pray you never get it, it's hell. People kill themselves from it. Imagine having a high pitched whistle in your ear that won't go away.

Thank you for watching, this is good info. BUT ! 212ppm does not look good ! According to the Kiddle website: 200 PPM - Slight headache, fatigue, dizziness, and nausea after two to three hours. Need to address this

This alarm will create a CO level display when tested. I'm not sure why they do this maybe simulating what it looks like when it sounds. But unless you know you haven't tested the alarm, you should be fine.

@@InsideOutElectronics I see.

Oh I'm sorry to hear that! But I wondering how do you know that it was no actual gas or CO leak ?

​@@InsideOutElectronics I checked it out and since I am retired in the field of electrical and heating and air condition I am skilled in such. By the way I like to open and investigate electronics items like you, You did a great job.

@@tooneboone3869 Thank you for nice words. I hope you not going to have false positives anymore!

What for? What is your use case?

@@InsideOutElectronics Mainly in order to be alerted when away from home.

@@robertrose3068 ok make sense, but i have seen this sort of device with wifi. If you find please tell us here

I don't trust wifi alarms, because if the power goes out or if the wi-fi goes out, you are basically screwed.
