Carbon Monoxide, but the response characteristics of these CO Alarms are such

these. Note: Carbon Monoxide Alarms, with electrochemical sensors have a cross
sensitivity to hydrogen. This means that they can alarm due to sensing hydrogen
being produced by batteries being incorrectly charged such as on boats or with
battery back-up systems such as those used with alternative energy systems. The
CO Alarm will alarm with 500 ppm H2 after between 10 and 40 minutes exposure.
