  1. No one hurt

    Made Jan 30, 2024, sent to the company Feb 13, 2024, published by CPSC Feb 28, 2024

    The product, in the report: Purported to be a dual capability Fire AND CO2 detector with a 10 year battery life.

    A dual (Fire and CO2) fire alarm was bought at Amazon (packaged by ANKA brand with a 10 year battery) (product is made by Intertek 5017086 -- the number is right next to Intertek’s brand name). The product purports to have both CO2 and Fire alarm detection ability but is MISSING the CO2 detection cylinder. In the place of the detection cylinder is a brake-away plastic shape that is not filled with the CO2 detection cylinder. On the advertisement web page there is an internal parts diagram and it clearly shows that cylinder as one that is supposed to be there. This is a potentially life threatening problem as people are unaware of the problem with their detectors. Also, the same packaging seller ANKA sells other combinations of the potentially the same fire/CO2 (purported) alarms, and they look like they are the same (though I did not examine all of ANKA’s products, but just one that is being reported.) The serial number of this particular unit is 010082021051300221 and it was manufactured on 03/17/2022 in China. Please examine the issue and make the company stop selling this (and other such) dangerous product(s) and hopefully make them recall the product as well for the sake of health of those who have already acquired these units. Thank you. Reference web page: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CNTRS8YJ?th=1
