Subject: Safety Question – Carbon Monoxide & Homebrew PCB

From: "ed.slatt" <ed.slatt@...>

Hello,

Do any of the basic homebrew PCB processes put off Carbon Monoxide?
Do any of the processes put of any chemical that can trick/damage CO
detectors? My middle level CO detector went off a few days ago.
After talking myself back into the house I changed batteries in all of
my fire/CO detectors and swapped the upstairs detector for the middle
level detector that triggered. A few days later the new middle level
detector went off. The offending location is on a hallway ceiling
that is half way between the garage where I park my car and the
basement where I etch/tin PCBs. I've been doing both for ~2 years
with out an alarm. My house is heated via NG. Any comments or
suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
