Tools and Hardware Reviews of First Alert CO615 Carbon Monoxide Plug-In Alarm with Battery Backup and Digital Display
Customer Review: Finally a top notch detector!!
Summary: 5 Stars
I just recently got a propane heater about 12 years ago well my CO2 detector all of a sudden went nuts and began waking me up in the middle of the night. The next day i replaced it with another one...same thing it keeps sounding...VERY annoying!
I ordered this one and im happy to say that its not going nuts! its dead quiet! now this is the best one yet, now i can finally get into a good dead sleep without interruptions.
i would write a longer review but im fighting headache and nausea and i think i better lie down.
seriously folks, this detector is great, pretty high tech lookin, well made easilly mountable plugs in, and battery backup...piece of mind in a box!
Customer Review: bought as a replacement
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this to replace my old co2 detector that would constantly discharge it's battery and beep endlessly for a new battery. Hopefully this unit doesn't end up doing that. The previous detector was from the same brand but a different model; I will post back if this one goes out on me.
It's a nice unit and does provide an ac cord that you can plug in 10+ ft away from the actual unit; or you can keep the cord and ac adapter snugged into the back of the unit and plug the entire thing into an outlet. Thats a really nice feature about this model; also the LCD display memorizes the last amount of co2 it has detected so you can always check back to see if you had any leaks.
Customer Review: It works I think
Summary: 5 Stars
Since I have not had a carbon monoxide alarm go of with the First Alert CO615, I cannot truly tell if it works (product up and running for 4 months). However, I have the unit plugged in by my bedrooms and at a fairly high level because carbon monoxide rises (giving ample time to react). I like how it has a constant battery symbol showing the strength of the battery and has a green light that shows that it is powered on through the outlet. It is not the prettiest thing in the world, but heck smoke detectors aren't either. Overall I have not had a problem with this product and I will post if I do. Recommended at this time.Customer Review: Peace of Mind
Summary: 5 Stars
I've owned this product for 3 years. Simply plug it into the wall, the unit comes with a battery for battery back up. It is very small and unobtrusive compared to my previous kidde unit and doesnt take up both outlets - nice design.
There have been several reports of people getting sick or dieing from carbon monoxide poisoning - this is a small price to pay for a life safety device.
It has a digital readout. This is a nice feature - if you had a problem and called the fire department they would be able to read the display to determine what level of Carbon Monoxide poisioning there way.
Customer Review: So far so good
Summary: 5 Stars
So far, I'm pretty pleased with the product. In the past, we tried another older generation First Alert plug in with battery backup that seemed to deplete battery life every 2 weeks. Maybe ours was defective, but like other people, getting jolted out of bed with a deafening squeal got old really fast. We have not had any problem like that so far, for the few months we've had it. Hopefully the detector is working! How would one know truly, unless you had a problem and it either did or didn't go off...one way or another you'd or someone would find out. Hopefully not the latter.
