It works like promised
I smelled gas in my house, but could not tell where it was coming from. Tried the old soap in a squirt bottle and still could not find the leak. I went on line to see if I could find something that would help and came across the General Company's "Gas Seeker". After reading mostly good reviews on the product, I thought I would give it a try.Simple and easy to use. Just push the button, let it warm up and simply pass it over your gas pipes and it will beep and show two different lights if it detects any gas. One light for a small slow leak and another for a larger leak. I found the first leak right away, so I kept checking more gas connections and found four more leaks!. It was money well spent and the price reasonable.

It did detect Natural gas but it wasn’t instantaneous. To test I turned the gas on to one of the burners on my range. I could smell gas instantly but it took approximately 20 sec to be detected.

This tool can "barely" detect natural gas. If I turn the stove burner on and place the detector where it can "feel the breeze" of gas it detects gas. Otherwise, no.

Unit does not seem to work
I ordered and waited 7 days to received the unit. I installed the batteries as instructed and the unit never seems to indicate the flashing green light (every 2 seconds per the instruction) and it detects nothing. I can smell some gas odor, but this unit doesn't seem to work out of the box - perhaps I got a lemon unit. Will be returning to HD. Would not recommend it.
