CO2 in home effects customer's health:
"This is fantastic. It took me two months to finally figure out where 1,700ppm levels were coming from in our house. It's the damn oven pilot lights in our brick, aluminum frame windows, sealed tight sometimes. Accounts for backaches and tiredness and earaches.
Until I get the hang of it, monitoring CO2, wind speed and direction, venting windows, carbon filters, and exhaust fans appropriately, I feel like a sea captain in the 1800s, looking for that clean air. But I think it will work out well.
Took a lot to figure this out, decades in fact, and I'm a radical, environ- mentally aware, science type. CO2 meter is essential. Should be taught in grammar school."

New Probe makes using our Sensors a Snap
Researchers and student tell us they need a simple and economical way to log CO2 levels. To help them, we are currently prototyping the Probe, a new product designed to make it even easier to measure and record CO2.
The probe will be a low cost way to measure CO2 for:
- Education - use the K-30 sensor for science fair or senior projects
- Plant Growth - use the K-33 ELG sensor to measure CO2, temperature and %RH levels in grow rooms, hydroponic greenhouses
- Research - use the K-33 ICB sensor for high-concentration CO2 testing in the lab, incubators, stem-cell research
The Probe includes:
- Ruggedized enclosure to withstand heavy use
- Integrated USB cable with heavy strain-relief fitting for long life
- Our open-source sensor SDK so that you can access all the features of the sensor from your PC
A final release date and price for the Probe will be announced shortly.

New Software Update for all Sensors
Bookmark this page to obtain the latest sensor SDK updates
The sensor SDK is a single solution for interfacing with all of our sensors. It provides an easy way to configure sensors, view data, and read the log files from sensors with internal memory. The included .NET source code makes it convenient for developers to create custom applications.
Features:
- Supports both UART and I2C interface options
- Enables real-time PC data collection
- Graphs make it easy to see trends and patterns
- Industry-standard .CSV file output for data collection
The SDK is compatible with any sensor using an I2C Interface cable (works with all sensors), the K-30 and K-33 ICB development kits, or a K-33 ELG/BLG data logger.

Can a CO2 monitor warn you when indoor air is bad?
While most of us seal our homes and offices to save energy, few of us consider the unintended consequences. You know what you’re keeping out, but have you ever thought about what you’re keeping in?
The eSense Fresh Air Indicator (FAI) warns you when indoor air is likely to contain high levels of dust, chemicals and micro-organisms. It can be used in offices, classrooms or anywhere air quality is important. An audible warning and flashing light indicate too much carbon dioxide, which means additional fresh air ventilation is required.
