Aranet, the company from which folks are getting the nifty little CO2 monitors, is having another great sale that puts them at $166.83 AND you get a nice little pouch to carry one around (great to check the air quality of stores and restaurants!).

If you have the monitor already and want the pouch, it's the Square Bag from TopoDesigns, retails for $19.

When I got my first monitor, I was shocked to learn how much CO2 was building up in rooms at home, even with just one person. I started opening windows and watching the numbers go down.

Last night we turned on the AC and closed all the windows, and I woke up at 4am feeling off. The thought that popped into my head was, "the air is bad," and then I thought, "I can't possibly know that," but I got up and checked the monitor: CO2 was way too high. Opened the windows, went back to sleep.

Since we've begun using the Aranets to keep the CO2 low, I definitely notice a difference in concentration and energy.

This has morphed into feeling a real craving to go for walks and get fresh air. I'm now basically one of those cheerful 19th century mothers who respond to everything with, "Did you open a window about it?"

Or, "Have you taken a walk about it?"

@hollie How interesting! And I love reading about how tuned into your body and the immediate environment you’ve become. I’ll want to pull out our Aranet CO2 reader now… Plus I bought a similar Temtop one that measures very small particles too (eg virus). The Aranet we have uses batteries and had no on/off switch. The Temtop one is rechargeable

@hollie I live an open window, husband always feels cold. I don’t want him to be sick, so he’s warm - maybe not as cosy as he would like, though.

The higher temperature brings on my eczema lol.

@hollie I don't have the pouch but I took mine to all of my workplaces and we saw what happens when 25 students turn on their 25 laptops, and the projector is on, and the heat too...

Luckily we take breaks, but ideally we should have more than one for the sake of airing out the room.

@bbbhltz @hollie
Laptops shouldn't raise the CO2 level, should they?
I'd guess CO2 would jump the same without any of those devices, but it would be cooler, and thus more difficult to notice.

@hollie "The offer is valid until June 10th or while the product is in stock." I wonder if they're coming out with a new model soon. (I hope they aren't dropping the product; I like mine. Seems pretty popular so I'd be a bit surprised if they just stop selling it.)
