A question for the smart people.
I am close to flying and just thinking of little things that I wish to have in my plane. TCAS and carbon monoxide testing are two of those. There are several CO testing items at acs for sale. The cheapest are around $150. I went to Home Depot and bought a small, 3 duracell aa powered unit that actually samples and digitally shows the CO readings. Its small, light and cheap with a good audible alarm. What am I giving up here? Any downside to having this in my plane. $30 and can be tested easily.
Why spend at least 5-10 times this much? Anything I am missing?
