The Gunson is the only one I have ever seen (okay, they make two models -
one with a digital gauge, the other a sweep hand).  I went so far as to
buy one of these (the digital one), only to return shortly after
purchase.  IMO, it is for very crude measurements - mine swung wildly
around a range of negative (?) PPM to over a hundred PPM on a car that
was in a very clean state of tune.

I suspect the $35 home CO meter may actually be more accurate, and I'd be
interested to hear of your success (or failure) in using it for exhaust
CO measurement.
