It would be nice if the CPSC and the UL and the manufacturers would sit down together and develop Travelers size carbon monoxide detectors. When I visit a store selling vacation and travel accesories, the store owner does not know anything. Also I wonder how many CPSC and UL employees have CO detectors in their homes?

If you have gas heat in a home it's advisable to have a monoxide detector but to mandate their necessity because people run cars and generators in closed garages is ridiculous.
