Carbon monoxide detectors

Carbon monoxide detectors (or CO detectors) are important for safety, especially when sleeping in your vehicle or using any appliance that burns fuel. Look for certifications to ensure that it actually detects CO well, such as "USA NIST" calibration for portable meters or UL 2034 for home-style alarms. Note that CO2 detectors (not CO) measure carbon dioxide, which is very unlikely to reach dangerous levels in any vehicle. Be sure you're buying the kind of detector you want. Products listed here are battery powered or car-outlet powered; plug-in (AC) models are usually cheaper but not as well suited for nomadic living. Many products detect multiple gases including CO, so if you want additional protection, consider a gas monitor instead of a CO detector.

HAOKESITE
PLT840-4
A four-gas personal monitor for combustible gas (LEL), hydrogen sulfide, oxygen and carbon monoxide; it does not measure CO2. It alerts with voice prompts, a 120 dB alarm, vibration and light, runs on an 1800 mAh lithium battery and clips onto clothing. Built for confined-space and industrial work, it suits buyers needing gas-leak and oxygen safety rather than ventilation tracking.
