Title: Works well for RV Camper
Review: The gas tester/leak tester works very well for my RV. Easy to use and vary accurate. Vary pleased with this purchase. Keep in mind that the propane leak detectors in all campers must be changed after 5 years and some sooner. They have a tendency to give false alarms at the 4 and 5th year of service.

Title: Works good
Review: Real easy to use. I went out on my back porch last week and smelled gas and did not sleep the rest of the night. I ordered this and I found where the gas smell was coming from. I tested it by turning on my gas, stove without s flame and standing away from it And sure enough it put out a blasting sound.

Title: Very Sensitive and Easy to Operate with a Great Price!
Review: System powers up fairly quickly, just needs to bring the electronics up to proper operating temperature, about 25 seconds. I installed a new tankless water heater and tested the gas line with soap solution...did not have any bubbles noted but I did detect a very, very faint smell of eggs after a couple days. Sprayed again with soap solution but still no sign of a leak. Ordered this Gas Detector from Amazon, it got here rapidly and I gave it a try. I immediately found 2 small leaks in the threaded gas line manifold. Took them apart put new pipe dope on them and re-installed and re-pressurized the line. Checked it again with the electronic Gas Detector and NO MORE LEAKS. I Highly recommend this device and for only $35 after tax, that's a no-brainer!!!! Buy IT!

Title: Great value and it works
Review: 4 stars because it drains batteries fast, 2 to 3 hours of continuous use. Screen works great indoors and dim environment's but fades out in bright light including indoors close to outdoor ambient light and is very hard to see in those situations. Overall, for the price and occasional use it is a good device that will do the job. Recommended.`

Title: A professional Gas Detector at a homeowner's price
Review: I bought this unit because it is the exact same make and model that my plumber uses. I do need to disconnect and connect gas appliances from time to time, so I bought this gas detector. The unit came in a strong, protective package. Installing the supplied batteries was easy. The user's instructions were clear, concise and also easy to follow. I tested the unit on a gas connection that I had made the day before and it detected no gas. To test the unit's sensitivity, I very briefly (as in less than one second) opened and closed one of the burners on my stove. The unit immediately started beeping loudly indicating they presence of gas. I am very pleased with this gas detector and plan to buy more of these units as gifts to my family and friends.

Title: Could save your life
Review: This Gas Leak Detector comes in a very nice protective case and the 3 brand-named batteries are included, easy to read and understand instructions, so you can use it right out of the box. I purchased it because I have a propane tankless hot water heater, and my family and I started smelling rotten egg smells in our garage where the tank is located. We called a plumber, who fixed the tankless water heater, but not the source of the smell, so it seemed. We left the garage door open, then turned to Amazon for a Gas Leak Detector and this one met all of our needs and was reasonably priced. Within less than 24 hours of ordering it, it was in our home sending out an alarm as it picked up deadly propane in the air. We immediately called 911, the firemen's professional sniffer detected the same, and the Firemen took actions to ensure we were safe to stay in our home while we waited on the plumber. The plumber came back the very next morning and said he had purchased a Gas Leak Detector for over $200 on the way to our house, and it too found a propane gas in the air. It wasn't long after that the problem was found and fixed. We had used our detector and ran it along the Water heater and then along the main supply gas line and the signal became stronger the closer we got to a certain area. The plumber's detector did the same thing in the same area and sure enough there was a small but deadly hole in the metal coil gas supply line. Based off of how well this Gas Leak Detector preformed for our needs, I would recommend it for a propane gas leak detection as it states in its description.However, if you think you smell something rotten and you have propane for any reason, DON'T do as we did. Please call 911 first, keep doors and windows open and then buy this! It's a great gift to give to someone who has propane use in their home as a housewarming gift or Christmas stocking stuffer too.

Review: I recently purchased the TopTes PT520A Gas Detector for added safety in my home and RV, and I am very impressed with its performance. Here are some highlights of my experience:The device is well-constructed, with a durable and bright orange casing that makes it easy to spot among my tools. The 43.5cm gooseneck is flexible yet sturdy, allowing me to reach into tight spaces and awkward angles effortlessly. Itâs lightweight and portable, making it convenient to carry around the house or in the RV.Setting up the detector was straightforward. It came with three batteries included, so I was able to use it right out of the box. The device powers on quickly, and the user interface is intuitive. The on/off button, combined with sensitivity adjustment, is simple to operate, even for someone whoâs not particularly tech-savvy.The TopTes PT520A does an excellent job at detecting gas leaks. I tested it around my kitchen stove and the propane lines,and it was able to identify even small leaks that I wouldnât have noticed otherwise. The adjustable sensitivity feature is fantastic for pinpointing the exact location of leaks, especially in hard-to-reach places. The audible alarm is loud and clear, which gives peace of mind knowing I wonât miss a detection alert.This detector is capable of identifying multiple types of gases, including methane, natural gas, propane, and other combustible gases. This versatility is a huge plus, especially for anyone using it in different environments like a home, RV, or even a workshop.Iâm highly satisfied with the TopTes PT520A Gas Detector. Itâs reliable, easy to use, and provides an extra layer of safety for both my home and RV. Itâs well worth the investment for anyone looking to protect their property from potential gas leaks.

Review: Ã veramente un ottimo prodotto.. semplice intuitivo e soprattutto preciso.. Avevo un perdita in cucina, si sentiva la puzza il controllo con lo spray rileva fuga e con il sapone ha dato esito negativo. Sotto il lavandino ho una valvola di chiusura del gas ma con lo spray non si evidenziava nulla ..ho acceso il rilevatore l'ho lasciato un paio di minuti sotto il lavandino..dapproma nulla...poi ho chiuso gli sportelli e quindi ha cominciato a suonare evidenziando la perdita, piccolissima ma pur sempre perdita che, ripeto, non si evidenziava con lo spray... Ottimo prodotto

Review: Thought we had a natural gas leak to our clothes dryer, ordered this tester and tested the tester first. It was able to sense the slightest bleed of natural gas so next we used it to accurately diagnose the leak we ended up not having
