This is my unboxing, and how to install the Kidde Code One 10-Year Sealed Battery Smoke Detector with Ionization Sensor, model i9010 found at amzn.to/3hfNFqG.
I am using the 3 pack, but I have seen 1 packs, 2 packs, 3 packs, and 6 pack while searching for what model I wanted to purchase. The whole process took just a few minutes to install. It was super quick and easy. I only needed a drill to make holes in the ceiling, and a screw driver to drive in the screws. Other than that, everything you need is included.
Specifications:
- Sealed-In Lithium Battery - 10 year
- Self Activation
- Alarm Memory
- End of Life Warning
- Test/Reset Button
- No hardwire installation required
- Smart hush feature temporarily silences nuisance alarms
- Utilizes an ionization sensor technology
What's in the Package:
- 1 (3) Smoke Detector Alarm
- 1 (3) Mounting Bracket
- 1 (3) Mounting Hardware
- 1 (3) Instruction Manual
- 1 (3) How to Activate Card
To get more information on this smoke alarm, or to purchase one, go to amzn.to/3hfNFqG.

No. These don't have any connection points to connect to other detectors.

Awesome video, mate! I have a question; Do you know how to completely turn off a 'mini Deltronic PT-8221'? It has a 10 year battery inside. Thank you!

@MonkeyingAroundReviews 3 жыл бұрын

I do not. I know that the ones I have do not have an on/off switch.

By pushing the security tag and twisting it anticlockwise you deactivate it.

Watch from 5:40 and you will see, all he does is twist it into the locked position and that activates the unit.

Does this smoke detector blink when it’s activated? Or no?

@vedorocc_ 2 ай бұрын

it blinks every 6 or 8 seconds. im not sure.

@asmaelgazzar8832 2 жыл бұрын

So that means the new 10 year battery one doesn’t need to be wired or attached to any wires in the sealing?

@MonkeyingAroundReviews 2 жыл бұрын

There might be some models that offer that feature, but these do not. Those wires are usually there to link them all together, so if one goes off, the all go off.

Be careful if you have old ceiling tiles like this, they could contain asbestos.

It doesn't work because the old detector had electrical metal things already in. You can't drill both sides of this ughhhhh!!!!
