Tools and Hardware Reviews of Kidde KN-COPP-B Front Load Battery-Operated Carbon Monoxide Alarm with Digital Display
Customer Review: "New" ones were manufactured over two years ago! Disappointing!
Summary: 3 Stars
The three we just bought were over 2 years old! (February 2007) (To be strictly factual, the first one we opened was manufactured that long ago. I'm not opening up the other ones just to find out!)
I've e-mailed Kidde to find out whether that will affect the longevity (it must, although their web page explains that the end-of-life alarm is measured from when it's first powered up-- but that's probably just a clock measure rather than an effectiveness measure). I will be contacting Amazon to arrange a return! What a disappointment as this is a highly rated and regarded product (see Consumer Reports and the accolades here.
Another reason for returning is that I discovered that, starting in 2008, Kidde's warranty was extended to 7 years! This only has five! So, for sure these are going back to Amazon. Which is, of course, a hassle in repacking and mailing it, but at least Amazon is good to deal with, including returns!
The return worked well; fast processing by Amazon and crediting our account. We realized there were other issues with this detector, too. You have to figure out how to mount this--and, being battery operated, it doesn't seem as protective as an AC with battery backup combo would be (but then our smoke alarms are battery operated only so this may not matter).
We ended up settling on the Nighthawk 900-0234 model to replace our Nighthawk COPP-3. It comes with the 7-year warranty--and the one Amazon is selling was made in August 2008, and so is less than a year old!

Carefully designed and tested to detect CO concentrations in a residential environment, the Kidde KN-COPP-B is a battery-operated CO alarm that continuously monitors CO levels, even during power outages when many CO incidents occur. Like all Kidde CO alarms, the KN-COPP-B includes the most accurate sensing technology available, the patented Nighthawk electrochemical sensor.
For easy operation, this alarm includes a snap-on cover that gives immediate access to the battery and a safety lockout feature that makes it difficult to close the cover without the battery being installed correctly.
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 it can often go undiagnosed.
Installing a CO alarm like the KN-COPP-B ensures that you'll know immediately when CO levels have reached an unsafe point, giving you time to leave the premises.
Easy-to-Read Backlit Digital Display Shows CO Levels
The KN-COPP-B is unique among traditional CO alarms because of its backlit digital display. This display clearly shows current levels of CO--from 30-999 ppm--that the unit has detected and stored, and updates every 15 seconds to give you an indication of any abrupt changes or alarming trends. The KN-COPP-B will also detect and store concentration CO levels as low as 11 and up to 999 ppm with its peak-level memory display.
For added convenience, pressing the peak-level button turns the backlight on so it's easy to see readings in the dark.
Test/Reset Button and Low-Battery Indicator
Designed to be user friendly, the KN-COPP-B includes features that make it easy to verify that the alarm is working properly. First, a test/reset button lets you confirm that the circuitry is functioning normally, and will also immediately silence an alarm. And when the battery is nearing the end of its cycle, a low battery "chirp" will sound, so you know it's time to make a replacement.
The UL-listed Kidde KN-COPP-B is backed by a five-year limited warranty.
