Buying carbon monoxide detectors for travel ?

Hey everyone, I’ve been seeing quite a few news stories about travellers being found dead in hotel rooms or Airbnb rentals, and it’s honestly made me think more seriously about safety.

It seems like a lot of places, especially some rentals, might not have proper detectors installed. I’m heading to the Caribbean soon and I’m considering buying a portable one to take with me for peace of mind.

Has anyone here bought one from Amazon before? Any recommendations? Also curious to hear your thoughts on this overall situation.

I always took one when I had kids. My parents/kids/dh/ used to laugh at me but I didn't care.

You can buy them anywhere, there's nothing to choose between them, they are just carbon monoxide detectors thats all.
