CO₂ Monitor

The battery can last for up to 30 days depending on your settings (frequency of recording, frequency of uploading and frequency of recording CO₂ when on battery power). The default setting is around 30 days, the minimum is 3 (in temperatures under zero degrees) or 6 days (in temperatures above zero degrees). We will try to put together a calculator that gives you a better idea of lifespan according to your chosen setting.

This has more features relevant to CO2 monitoring where this is the primary concern. It offers longer battery life (up to 30+ days depending on settings), is wall mountable, has the ability to set colour thresholds and has an optional buzzer on device. This makes it ideal for schools and businesses, but also for consumers that want a longer battery life.

The manufacturer has confirmed that it may be difficult for the air monitors to be set to airplane mode or block the surrounding signal. The good news is such device is essentially a signal receiver, which means as long as it is not actually connected to Wi-Fi or Bluetooth, it will only emit negligible EMF in comparison to a router or smartphone. A device picking up your monitor doesn’t mean they are connected and you can ask smart devices, such as TV or smartphones, to ignore your air monitor to avoid any unwanted connections. It isn’t easy to shut down the connection, or cut off the signal, on monitors as they are mainly operated via Apps, as are most monitors on the market.

Our air monitors are calibrated at the factory and uses auto-calibration. This means that you shouldn’t need to calibrate again as long as the device is exposed to CO₂ levels of around 400-500ppm (outdoor temperature) for a few hours every month. If the device is not getting enough exposure to outdoor levels, the sensors may drift over time. If this happens, you can reset the CO₂ sensors in the Settings accessed via the app. If you need a more accurate reading, the auto-calibrate can be switched off and you can rely on regular manual resets but for most people, we recommend keeping the auto-calibrate switched on. If your indoor environment is dusty, you may need to calibrate more frequently.

If your device has stopped charging, here are a few things to check: Charging Duration: How long have you been charging it? If the device hasn’t been used for a while, it might be fully depleted. Allow it to charge for at least 4 hours or overnight. Charging Source: Are you charging with a USB cable connected to a laptop or via a plug? If you're using a laptop, try switching to a plug charger instead. Cable Issue: If the device still doesn’t hold a charge, try using a different cable to rule out a faulty cable as the issue.
