Strange that I've never thought about a detector and have slept in various places where it might(?) be a problem. I've read about it happening and it is indeed tragic. There was an explosion here at an Airbnb a few years ago. The gas tank was inside, not a good idea.
There's a place in Chapala where I've stayed many times (they take dogs!!) with little kitchens. I always double check that the gas valve into the stove is off when not cooking. Just in case.
Checking the appliances - good call, Victor. I just started traveling with a detector about a year ago - I also never gave it a second thought. Maybe I am being too paranoid, but reading about these tragedies, I like easing my mind for $40!!

Thanks, Mike! What else is hiding from my awareness? This information invites peace and just may save a life!
