We were asleep. The detector started beeping — not a chirp, a full alarm. I woke up dizzy, barely able to stand. Got my family outside. Firefighters said levels were lethal. Another hour, we wouldn't have woken up.

This is what “built to survive” means — a $15 outlet that can stop your heart from stopping. 👊
