5.0 out of 5 stars Mercury Gas Detector 12 Feb 2010
By John
Amazon Verified Purchase
I ordered this detector for my elderly mother who lives alone and uses a gas cooker. She started to turn on a gas tap whilst leaving the gas unlit, and we discussed with her how best to deal with this dangerous situation. She finally agreed that i could research some gas detectors for her. I was somewhat concerned that she may come to rely on the detector to let her know if she had turned on the gas tap without lighting it, rather than checking the cooker herself. However, this has proved to be an amazing gadget which plugs into the mains and is ever so sensitive. She telephoned me a month or so after installation rather panicked saying that the alarm was making a very loud noise and she couldn't understand why. I asked that she open her door and also check her gas taps. Sure enough she had left a gas tap slightly on without it being lit. The alarm stopped sounding and she was pleased we had managed to prevent her causing severe damage to herself and her neighbours. The gadget comes with installation details, and my mother does feel safer - as do my family and i.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great and such good value 9 April 2010
I bought this after my Mother aged 78 almost blew herself and my brother up after leaving the gas hob on as she has a very poor sense of smell and by the time my brother had smelt the gas upstairs it would have been very dangerous. Thankfully we have not tested in real life situation, however I took it from the box and plugged into a socket around 2 feet from my own gas cooker and turned on the gas. Within 2 minutes and 20 seconds a very loud alarm was sounded and I have to say I was standing in front of the cooker and I had barely smelt the gas at that stage. When I decided to look for one I had an expectation of paying Ģ40 upwards for a worth while alarm. It is discreet and has a screw bracket so it could be fitted out of sight if needs be. My Mother has hers tucked behind her kettle on the bench and you cannot see it. Highly recommended and the peace of mind comes at any cost to me.

5.0 out of 5 stars Mercury Gas Detector 5 Mar 2010
Both my wife and I could smell gas in our kitchen after repairs were carried out to our gas boiler. Nobody in our family would believe us when we said there was a leak. I then bought a Murcury Gas Detector via Amazon and set it up in the kitchen. Almost immediately it detected gas. The fitter came out and finally found the leak. A nut had not been fully screwed up. He was so impressed with the detector that he was going to get one himself.
To my mind buying the detector was a life saver.
Many thanks
