CO2 Detectors

Can anyone recommend a CO2 dectector that is best for use inside an aircraft. I know that you can purchase panel detectors but i am interested in the portable battery operated type. Also, if any of these units measure the amount of co2 detected instead of just a warning. Any experience that any of you may have in this area would be much appreciated.

Thanks

www.aeromedix.com has the CO Experts model1070 for $139 US and it shows real low levels..much safer than the home repair box store units. Be warned that the sensor only lasts for a few years. It has a led print out and audible alarm. I just ordered the new model to replace the old one I had. Talked to the manufacturer...great guy....the old one was so sensitive that my preheater set it off....pain in the a$$...but...really comforting to know it worked....
