This doesn't measure CO2 levels. It measures volatile organic compounds and calculates the amount of CO2 that would cause the same greenhouse effect.

>The SGP30 does have built in calibration capabilities, note that eCO2 is calculated based on H2 concentration, it is not a 'true' CO2 sensor for laboratory use.

Not even that. It is designed for hvac applications and measures VOCs on the assumption that they are from human breath and have a corresponding increase in CO2 levels due to breath.
