Recommendations for O2 and CO analyzers

[Ulfhedinn]

In the market for one of each to stash in my dive box when I'm not at home.

Search on this site for "sensorcon". That’s what I use for CO. Used to get some low levels occasionally when filling with a gas compressor, but not since switching to electric. Still great peace of mind to know it’s safe.

Did you mean "CO" or "CO2"?

I use the Palm testers with BC adapters, and a cheap piston reg as a dedicated testing reg (as not all my regs have BC hoses).

I use the Palm O2 analyzer. I haven't been able to get myself to fork over nearly $400 for the Palm CO analyzer (Palm CO Carbon Monoxide Analyzer).

I hope that you are using something other than hope and faith.

Oxycheq

Oxcheq - Just bought my second O2 Expedition (first one lasted 15+ years with sensor replacements every 2 to 3 years). CO analyzer still fine after 9+ years (on second sensor)

Can somebody explain the process for testing a tank with the Oxycheq? Do you need a flow restrictor, or do you just barely crack the valve on the tank and use the nozzle they show in the picture on their site? How long do you have to test to get a reading? etc...
