About Carbon Monoxide: The Silent Killer
The leading cause of accidental poisoning deaths in North America, carbon monoxide (CO) is often referred to as the silent killer because it's odorless, tasteless, and invisible. Carbon monoxide poisoning can come about via a number of sources, including everyday items and appliances in your home or office. And because symptoms of CO poisoning mimic the flu or other common illnesses, CO poisoning can often go undiagnosed.

When placed on every level of your home, alarms like the Nighthawk 900-0234 can help protect everyone in the house from CO exposure by giving an unmistakable audible signal when CO levels have reached an unhealthy point.

Easy-to-Read Digital Display Shows CO Levels
Featuring a small, sleek, discreet design that's suitable for all living areas, the Nighthawk 900-0234 is preferred among CO alarms because of its digital display. This display clearly shows current levels of CO--from 30 to 999 ppm--and it updates every 15 seconds, giving you an indication of any abrupt changes or alarming trends. The display also shows the peak CO level recorded by the alarm since it was last reset or unplugged.

Loud Alerts Signal Elevated Levels and Low Battery Life
The Nighthawk 900-0234 immediately sounds a loud warning signal if CO has reached an elevated, unsafe level in your home, giving you plenty of time to leave the premises. You'll also hear a clearly audible alert when the product is nearing the end of its seven-year life, or the battery needs changing.

Battery Operated for Continuous Monitoring
For added convenience, the Nighthawk 900-0234 also has a battery backup, which means you won't have to worry about power outages. Unlike many A/C units, the Nighthawk will monitor continuously without interruptions. And because it has a seven-year product life, it's able to provide protection up to 40 percent longer than other units.

User-Friendly, Protective Features
For added peace of mind, the Nighthawk 900-0234 has a test/reset button that allows you to verify that the alarm is functioning properly, and a tamper-resistant feature that works by putting the unit into constant alarm mode if it has been unplugged or has come loose from the outlet.

Compliancy and Warranty Information
The Nighthawk 900-0234 is UL listed and is backed by a seven-year limited warranty.

5 out of 5 stars Love the digital readout   November 3, 2009

Set up was easy. Love the digital read-out. And I love that in 7 years the unit will tell me it's time to replace it. Nice sticker on the top to write in the date myself too.

My only complaint, if you want to call it that, is that you have to hit the button in the back to kill the sound that you hear continuously if you unplug the unit from the ac. Glad I figured that out before the first power failure or the unit would have gone on and on.

Overall, a great unit at a great price.



5 out of 5 stars Best CO detector I've owned so far...   December 23, 2009

After owning the other Kidde CO detector with digital display (Part Number 900-0076 Model KN-COPP-3), I was about to buy another one until I found this Kidde 900-0234 for a much lower total price (as compared to Lowes or Costco) here on Amazon shipped to my door. The old one lasted about 7 years without any problems then gave me an error code and stopped working. Looking into it, these Kidde CO detectors apparently have a shelf life of 7 years and that was true for my case. There is not much difference between the two; this one is a plug in and the other has a cord with a small plug in transformer. Both have the same features and work the same.

One thing people should be careful of is the shelf-life of these, luckily mine had only a 2 month old build date stamp on the back. The 7-year timer is suppose to start the count down after initial plug-in, but Kidde seems concerned about sensitivity as these age, probably for liability reasons. Seems like most people would want the newest one for best sensitivity and longest life.

So far so good after one day of use.

What can I say - seems like it will work just fine. I use to have the CO/GAS detector after constant false Gas alerts I changed over to this unit. It doesn't protect against gas but I no longer get constant false alarms.

It looks good quality. Owning it for 2 weeks and believe it will do the job. By the way, no false alarm yet.

We got this as a replacement for our old one as their sensors die after so many years. Ours came broke but Amazon took good care of us and sent a replacement out next day. It is loud,and has peak read out.
