CO my mistake why I want to tag on a 2 I don't know! Embarrassed

I would never disable any alarm unless I was 100% plus that all was good. The only reason I even contemplate being able to turn it off was is when I found out that if the DC voltage to it drops it will trigger the alarm because it senses it as a fault condition and not a Propane leak or CO build up. It tells you the alarm itself is at fault by a blinking LED along with the alarm beeping. Hopefully now with a new converter its all a non issue.

With good power, mine has never sounded except when I bump into it and end up pushing the self-test button. Then I get a reminder that when it is time to replace it, to replace it with a recessed mount model that is flush with the wall. I frequently bump the existing one and pop it off its mount partially or fully.
