CO 2 Detectors are only $37 at Bunnings, think I'll get one, better alive than not!
In NSW we are supposed to have a smoke alarm in a bedroom area, so will add this alongside my smoke alarm
I used to run a Kero heater in a flat in Tassy years ago along with a rubber tree the flat turned in a rubber tree jungle It nearly was as bad as Movie Jimungi

Note that it's the Carbon Monoxide (CO) , not Carbon Dioxide (CO2) that is the lethal gas. You need a Carbon Monoxide monitor.

Yes very sad. Its surprising how many are still unaware of that kind of risk. Last year same thing happened to a family in a cabin. I got rid of the gas on Trek because of worry about kaboom, and we use our metho stove for heating. Its a bit slower but less of a worry.
Happy to be corrected but l think any fuel can create CO poisoning.
Explosion is different.
