had a similar problem and it turned out to be a very small leak from a small disposable propane bottle in the storage area and when ever we turned on a fan such as the bathroom or kitchen it would draw the leaked propane up over the detector and set it off. I purchased a hand help detector to track down the source after replacing the original detector.

They make brass caps with seals to cap off the small propane cylinders to prevent this. The owner of a WBO View had one leaking in his outside pull out "fishtank" storage locker and the gas exploded and did quite a bit of damage. I bought enough caps to cover all of my cylinders, both stored in the shop on the shelf, and in the MH.
