Editorial Review: Product Description: Battery Operated Carbon Monoxide Alarm, Includes A Backlight Digital Display Feature, Key Feature Adds An Advanced Level Of Protection, Includes Multiple Mounting Options Allowing Installation On A Wall Or Tabletop, Carefully Designed&Tested To Detect Carbon Monoxide Concentration In A Residential Environment. Amazon.com Product Description: Protect your family from the dangers of carbon monoxide (CO) with the Kidde KN-COPP-B Front-Load Battery-Operated Carbon Monoxide Alarm with Digital Display. Specifically designed for in-home use, the KN-COPP-B is the only battery-operated alarm that includes a backlit digital display. This key feature adds an advanced level of protection, and makes for easy-reading, even in low-light conditions.
Carefully designed and tested to detect CO concentrations in a residential environment, the Kidde KN-COPP-B is a battery-operated CO alarm that continuously monitors CO levels, even during power outages when many CO incidents occur. Like all Kidde CO alarms, the KN-COPP-B includes the most accurate sensing technology available, the patented Nighthawk electrochemical sensor. For easy operation, this alarm includes a snap-on cover that gives immediate access to the battery and a safety lockout feature that makes it difficult to close the cover without the battery being installed correctly. About Carbon Monoxide: The Silent Killer The leading cause of accidental poisoning deaths in North America, carbon monoxide (CO) is often referred to as the silent killer because it's odorless, tasteless, and invisible. Carbon monoxide poisoning can come about via a number of sources, including everyday items and appliances in your home or office. And because symptoms of CO poisoning mimic the flu or other common illnesses it can often go undiagnosed. Installing a CO alarm like the KN-COPP-B ensures that you'll know immediately when CO levels have reached an unsafe point, giving you time to leave the premises. Easy-to-Read Backlit Digital Display Shows CO Levels The KN-COPP-B is unique among traditional CO alarms because of its backlit digital display. This display clearly shows current levels of CO--from 30-999 ppm--that the unit has detected and stored, and updates every 15 seconds to give you an indication of any abrupt changes or alarming trends. The KN-COPP-B will also detect and store concentration CO levels as low as 11 and up to 999 ppm with its peak-level memory display. For added convenience, pressing the peak-level button turns the backlight on so it's easy to see readings in the dark. Test/Reset Button and Low-Battery Indicator Designed to be user friendly, the KN-COPP-B includes features that make it easy to verify that the alarm is working properly. First, a test/reset button lets you confirm that the circuitry is functioning normally, and will also immediately silence an alarm. And when the battery is nearing the end of its cycle, a low battery "chirp" will sound, so you know it's time to make a replacement. The UL-listed Kidde KN-COPP-B is backed by a five-year limited warranty.

Average Rating:
 Rating:  - It alerted us when our furnace heat exchanger crackedWe have this one and a First Alert plug-in model. This unit woke us up one night with a readout of 55 ppm. The First Alert did not. The next morning, we had someone come out to look at our furnace, and it turned out there was a crack in the heat exchanger. The First Alert alarm never went off despite its closer proximity to the furnace. I bought this one right before our baby was born, and I'm really glad that I did. Rating:  - It works... but there are some issuesThe overall design of this detector is pretty good. The battery compartment is very accessible (helpful for wall mounted units) and the test/peak buttons are easy to operate. Plus, there is a built-in stand, if you prefer not to wall mount it (although a wall mounting is certainly best). There is one flaw that creates some confusion, though. When you press the "test/reset" button, the unit will automatically go into a test cycle. Some numbers may display, but these are not CO readings, ...

It absolutly allows me to sleep easier with the knowledge that me and my wife will not be victimized by that oderous gas. Rating: - Confirm alarm with digital readout.I'm replacing a similar 4 year old Kidde alarm without digital display that had started to generate repeated false alarms. CO alarm devices apparently have a fairly limited life. The digital display should help to confirm any future audible alarms. Batteries were included. Mounting holes matched the old unit. Very satisfied with the price. Rating: - Works Well & Easy to InstallThe unit appears to work well, though I can't confirm the accuracy. Coming with batteries, screws and a template: it was very easy to install. |
