Gas leak detector

[pattypape]

Hey Ernie & Bob,

Usually a propane cigarette lighter will set it Off, Howling.
Blow the flame out and hold it against the sniffer, until it yelps.

IF you disconnect the detector wires at the solenoid valve , then add
a 12 volt jumper wire you can hear and test the solenoid valve, This
will open the gas valve, This valve opens with 12 volts, then the
detector lowers the hold open voltage to about 4 Volts to 8 Volts.
You can use a full 12 volts for a short time to hold the valve
open & fry an egg, But it is designed for a lower maintenance
voltage. The solenoid will get hot , This is not good for the
flamable propane gas.
Ernie you could find your Butt in Canada.
