Gasoline fume sensor... do you have one?

1st question... do you have one on your boat? I'm surprised how many gas boats don't have them.
The real question is what ones should I consider if I replace the ones I have?
Mine are originals so they are approaching 40 years old. I replaced the sensor element quite a while ago and they have always worked when I've tested them but the displays are getting worn and faded.
I have a dual station, so the system would have to accommodate two displays.
Offhand, I can't recall the brand I currently have, but it used to be very popular round style with a little toggle switch to silence the alarm and with a green and a red LED to show status. There are two displays that connect to the same sensor, which is a white box with a plug-in round sensor element.
