Designed for kitchens, garages, or spaces with fuel-burning appliances, this kit gives you a practical, real-world home automation project that could prevent real harm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat You'll Build\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou'll assemble a standalone CO monitoring station around the Arduino Uno R3. The MQ-7 sensor reads gas concentration in real time; when CO surpasses a threshold you set, the system triggers a loud buzzer and energises a 5V relay to turn on an exhaust fan. Simultaneously, the SIM800L GSM module sends a pre-programmed SMS to your phone, so you're alerted even when you're not in the room. The LM2596 buck converter and large capacitors ensure the GSM module gets stable power for reliable messaging.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat You'll Learn\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCalibrating and interfacing the MQ-7 electrochemical gas sensor with Arduino analog input\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eProgramming threshold-based logic, relay control, and alarm actuation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eIntegrating the SIM800L GSM module to send SMS alerts on dangerous CO levels\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eManaging power supply stability using a buck converter and filter capacitors for GSM modules\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eKit Contents\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n  \u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eComponent\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eQuantity\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n  \u003ctbody\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eArduino Uno R3\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMQ-7 CO Sensor\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSIM800L GSM\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e5V Relay Module\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLM2596 Buck Converter\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eActive Buzzer\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1000�F 25V Capacitors\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e10k?
