Re: Tragic situation in Tasmania

Re: Tragic situation in Tasmania

Our posts passed like ships in the night.

Yes, I have a bilge gas sensor (minus one spare sensor).

I am of the old-fashioned "turn it off at the tap" mentality with this stuff, only turn...

Re: Tragic situation in Tasmania

Yeah, bugger-it. I killed the sensor on our bilge gas alarm when I shipped bit of water a few weeks back. Still got two spares, but at $90 each I am pretty pissed with myself.:banghead:

Re: Tragic situation in Tasmania

Hi RC, I bought two of the dedicated CO detectors sold with the Quell brand.

I might be kidding myself, it was close to double the price of the others so I hoped that spending the extra moola...

Re: Tragic situation in Tasmania

Well, this has been an education. The Carbon Monoxide issues, while generally familiar to me, turn out to be more widespread than I had thought. I honestly felt there was no CO risk from our LPG...

Re: Tragic situation in Tasmania
