Has anyone  had any experience with a CO2 / smoke detector combination unit?  I have been looking to purchase one and want to get the right one.  Thanks in advance.

I got a battery powered CO (cabon Monoxide) detector.

Be aware that the sensor has a life of about 5-7 years.  Then, you either have to replace the sensor or whole unit.

Some units have a signal to alert you to the end of sensor life.

Location: arizona		remember, smoke detectors need to be installed on the ceiling and carbon
detectors need to be installed low, 12 to 18 inches off the floor. So i wouldnt think an all for one would work!
