Obviously most people that do the charcoal method are not measuring amounts. So in theory if I want to be in the safe side isn't a 30 dollar detector enough. If after putting the charcoal in the car in 5 minutes it hits 1000ppm, that means it worked right? I understand you would want more to be exact but obviously if it hit 1000 in minutes, it's gonna keep climbing, the information of exact amount isn't required. 1600ppm means death in 2 hours and likely if 5 min got it to 1000 in 30 minutes or so it'll be well beyond that 1600 level and you'll be out like a light before that even happens. So why do some instead buy 10000 600 dollar detectors?
