First Alert CO615 Carbon Monoxide Plug-In Alarm with Battery Backup and Digital Display
$59.99
A previous reviewer stated problems with the back-up battery cover First Alert CO615 Carbon Monoxide Detector.
It is flimsey and does not close easily once the battery is installed - it took me 3 or 4 trys to get a positive lock on the cover without breaking off the plastic latch protruding from the back of the cover.
Other than the battery cover, happy with the product to date. NO false signals, no problems with the back-up battery after a month. Purchased at Amazon.com

First Alert Smoke and Carbon Monoxide Alarm - SC01CN3

This product is unusable, it randomly goes off giving false alarms all day long. I have lived in quite a few different places over the years, one thing i noticed over time is any place i move to that has a First Alert detector, i ended up replacing within a week or so with my own due to the fact it constantly giving false alarm or not working at all, while apartments that has a kidde detector, i never have to do anything just changing the battery every 6 months.

To summarize, avoid first alert, get a kidde.
