Proposed US Rule for Portable Generators Will Save Thousands of Lives and $1B/Yr

What is the correct way to send feedback/comments for this proposal?

In particular I'd like to see so-called "solar generators" or "power stations" be out of scope for requiring "carbon monoxide detection" features, since they're literally just batteries + inverters.

I tried sending a message to https://www.cpsc.gov/About-CPSC/Contact-Information/Commissi... about standardized CO detector modules, but I don't think it worked:

Unfortunately the deadline for comments on this proposed rulemaking was June 20, 2023:

https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2023/04/20/2023-07...

It's wonderful how the public doesn't actually find out about these things until it's too late.
