Also there is to much open air. They r made to go off when dangerous levels are present. Like in confined spaces. Try this experiment with a cardboard box around it in front of ur exhaust on a cold start.

You need to gather the air in a enclosed space so the concentration of the gas is higher. Put the alarms in a bucket or bag and then put it in front of the exhaust

I’ve read that modern cars are so efficient that their CO level is so low that their exhaust can’t be used to commit suicide

Yeah no. Definitely possible. Difficult while idling but you put any gas on and you wouldn’t last 20 mins in a small space

I mean, one still can do that but the size of a space necessary to do that is shrinking more and more, it certainly wouldn't work in open air like this lol

I did the same to test mine. Then, I was told by redcross certified installer that modern cars do not emit enough CO for the alarm to go off.

after a catalytic does it job, Carbon dioxide/water vapors/ nitrogen and oxygen with small amounts of monoxide and hydrocarbons are what come out of an exhaust. itll never go off due to the amount of out put on a cars exhaust

Put them into a garbage can or 5gal bucket and then feed a piece of flexhaust into the mostly closed container. Oxygen should be displaced by CO in the confined space.

If you press the button pretty sure that tests it lol…try and close your garage door with the truck and alarms inside…let us know the results - ps don’t die.
