First Alert Vindication

  The heating repair techs all wear, or carry, carbon monoxide detectors, a necessity in their job. One of the kind souls, concerned for my safety, asked if I had one, and could he see it. I showed him the First Alert, which I had finally been able to activate.
    He said it wasn't activated, so he read the instructions and moved the lever down, near the downward arrow. He pressed the button and of course it didn't beep. Because the arrow must be in the up position, as I had found out. So he moved the lever up, where I had placed it, and pressing the button then resulted in the beep. He, a certified tech, said the instructions were stupid.
    So, as I avow, it isn't me. It's them.
