Historical Context:
This vintage CO2 detector,repurposed as a lamp,dates back to the mid-20th century.During this time,industrialization and increased indoor living led to growing concerns about air quality.CO2 detectors were essential tools for monitoring the concentration of carbon dioxide in enclosed spaces,particularly workplaces and public buildings.
Original Function:
The detector's primary purpose was to measure the level of carbon dioxide in the air.This information was crucial for maintaining a safe and healthy environment,as excessive CO2 levels can lead to headaches,dizziness,and even more serious health problems.
Upcycled as a Lamp:
