RichieRich,

Yes mine was purchased Spring of 2013.

Thanks for the up date. I hadn't a chance to check my units yet.

Hi John B ,
Thanks for the link to the Atwood LP Detector . I did buy the new one ,have some new information I like to share with you and all the other members who responded to my post. The manual now mentions the detector will have a life span of 7 years (+ or -) 128 days after it has been powered up. This represents the operating life of the sensor used to detect LP gas. After 7 years , the sensor is no longer reliable and the detector must be replaced . The detector comes with a " End of Life Mode" that flashes a yellow LED and chirp every 30 seconds . Richie Rich

Hi, this is good info. Saves me a call....

What model did you get and did you get it online? I will be looking into a new one.

Thanks

John

HI John B , I used the link in your previous email to view the LP detector from Atwood , that is the one I bought "ATWOOD RV PROPANE ALARM LP GAS DETECTOR 12/VOLT Model- LP-DOW P/N 36719 " from Ebay $25.99 plus $8.99 s/h . I just checked and the seller has others , although the prices(buy it now) at the moment are $28.99 ,his ebay store is RVWSPARTS , RichieRich

Ok Thanks. Got it now

Actually this model states right on the front "Replace within 84 months of retail sale" I some how missed that before.
