Try any alarm companies or stores. Most have device that integrates with systems for garages in large buildings to monitor and alarm for co levels. If they dont have stand alone, I am sure they know where.

Re: Suffocate while Living aboard a coverd boat

All you need is a bit of crucial kit called the medulla oblongata. Luckily it's free as we all have one in our brainstem. Once blood Co2 levels rise it will trigger the reticular activating system (also free) which will wake you up pretty quickly unless you're under a general anaesthetic.

If you don't already have one of these useful devices, or it's not working properly, then you have already satisfied one of the criteria for brainstem death and should seek medical advice quite urgently.

Re: Suffocate while Living aboard a coverd boat

Some times a bit o moonshine impairs the medulla oblongata. Impairs common sense and all fear too. What a great little bit o liquid . I'm liable to have a bonfire burning after Mr Mason and his jar stop by on a thunder and white lightning kind of day.
