I agree that to see if it is battery gassing, just yank the battery. Modern converters don't need a battery to make clean 12v, so run on shore power, no battery, and see if your alarm still goes off.
Our LP alarm, no CO alarm to it, is 12 years old. Works great. Only time it acts up is when there is a true low 12v voltage issue. Never had an actual gas alarm issue.
The LP alarm is right in front of a floor furnace register and next to the cold air return. Also we have dogs (often blamed for gassing! :) ). It is below the propane stove too. Never had a gas alarm.
