Can I know where do we find the model number for the smoke detectors that is being used in this video ?

I'm no expert, but I think that for safety reasons you're supposed to switch the power off before handling the alarm, especially if you're dealing with the wires.

We used to have this smoke alarm until 2021 we replaced them with the new smoke and carbon monoxide detector

Great, hope new ones works perfect. Just curious, why did you change Smoke Detectors with Smoke and Carbon Monoxide? Is there any reason?

Question, if alarm keeps going off can you unplug it /I'll the weekend is over so it stops alarming, tried replacing battery, didn't help. Hate to pay for electrician after hours, I am disabled so can do the job myself

Hello, May be double check the direction of the batteries. Also, please press reset button, alarm will go off once and then it will reset. Not resetting is the most common issue why Detector keeps beeping. Also, on Smoke there is expiry date, which is 10 years from Manufacturing date. If that date is passed, then Smoke Detector need replacement.

I can't even get the cover off. Twisting it as hard as I possibly can does nothing. It's like it's one piece

Hello, May be try using bit of added force, also, make sure you are turning it on the clockwise direction to open. Latching system on these Smoke Detector is very simple and doesn't require any special tools. Sometimes if paint or paint touch up is done after smokes are installed, paint drips to the frame and dries off. Try cleaning that and open. Please also check if your Smoke is with a built-in battery, which doesn't open but need whole unit replaced. Check face of smoke detector to see which one is it. There might be manufacturing date, if Smoke mal-functions within 10 years, it has a limited warranty and Kidde can be contacted for a replacement unit. Hope this helps. Please let me know if you have any other question.

Bro, I am a 200lb dude with significant arm strength and I cannot get this cover off. I’m going to snap it in half if I try harder. It’s insane lol…and the low battery is beeping all night.

Oh my god, the connectors are not compatible with all their smoke detectors? Is this company run by monkeys?
