I saw a fake Britain about fake carbon monoxide detectors. It's not normally something I watch but I was really surprised. Not saying this is fake but definitely only buy these types of products from a reputable supplier as the fake ones also pretend to meet standards. Some things just aren't worth the risk.

description says 10 year battery but unit says replace after 3 years...
I'm gas emergency and I would not recommend anything not marked with BS EN 50291 which this isn't, CE marked or not

But doesn't appear to be carbon monoxide detectors.
Link goes to wrong thing (single pack) - PW-521SC (Twin Pack) is for 2 smoke detectors.
