Have used this product in the past and I assume that it works well. However, I've never had a CO leak so the button never changed color.
Cons
None that I can think of
General Comments
Haven't install this product yet ... waiting for weather to get cold where I will be using cabin heat. Living in Texas, that may not happen! :-)

General Comments
I've flown at a lot of different FBOs and flight schools around the country. This is always the one I see stuck to the panel. It's the right price and it's a nice little thing to check after you turn the heat on. Every plane needs one of these.

Quick and easy way to keep an eye on any possible CO issues. I like the extended lifespan of the product so I'm not having to constantly replace.

Pros
I very much prefer this detector over other 'stick-on' ones. Most detectors only begin to indicate when the problem has almost reached the point-of-no-return, whereas this one will indicate the moment CO begins to enter the cockpit, thus giving you more time to resolve the problem and ensure the safety of your passengers and/or crew.
Cons
None. That one time you don't feel that you need a CO detector in a piston aircraft is going to be the one time you silently slip away and nose over into a preschool.
General Comments
There is absolutely no compromise when it comes to safety of passengers and crew. Whether you're a weekend rental pilot or a full-tilt, "if I'm not up there I'm just doing a little preflight," pilot, having a CO detector on-board is a critical safety issue. Too many pilots have decided they didn't need one, only to slip away into oblivion in a situation that was totally avoidable had they carried a basic safety item such as this. As we all know, don't ever think it won't happen to you, it will sooner or later. I really don't know what more I could add to this issue. If you aren't carrying a CO detector and you fly, you are going to die.

Pros
Adhesive backing, extended use product.
Cons
Actual indicator is very small and the colorful background of the surrounding detector could distract from a danger indication.
Difficult to write on the date, perhaps a border box to check the month would be a better way to record expiration. The way the plastic covers the "open date" will contribute to pilots simply not recording the date and increases the possibility of flying with a worthless detector when they will need it.
