Thank you very much for this video. This alarm's manual covers so many details that it looked to me like the instructions to assemble a NASA rocket. You made my day!!

We went to the ionization type for one of our detectors. It seems overly sensitive, going off during normal cooking frequently. We put it a little lower in the room and it still seems to work well.

Use photoelectric then it won't go off to cooking

I remember in your early videos you had a smoke detector chirping in the background :)

Thanks for this. Just to clarify, once it starts chirping, you need to toss, correct? I just moved into a house with these all over, and starting to chirp, but can’t figure out how to remove batteries.

I purchased 2 of these kiddie 10 year alarms. Both started going “fire fire fire” after a few days each. I don’t smoke and there were no fires. One even did both “fire fire fire” and “carbon monoxide”. I had to disable both to make them stop.

You forgot to fill in the installed date on a sticker that is on the side of the unit.

Though it might be destructive, I would have liked to see a teardown showing the lithium battery.

I wonder with the 10 years is set by power on time...or if it has some other method to track time

@stinkycheese804 3 жыл бұрын

10 years is only an estimate of how long the battery "might" last, and their recommendation for the replacement period. It does not track time (unless they've changed it recently), rather it starts chirping briefly when the battery voltage gets low.

@@stinkycheese804 Oh maybe I'm thinking for the Carbon Monoxide detectors. I think they have a chip that times how long they operate and then it kills the unit.

@@kellybrown740 it’s made a certain way so when the battery is dead you have to replace the whole thing. It’s every 10 years so it’s not so bad

@lordbeerus5931 thank you. Unfortunately mine didn't last 10 years 🫤 I'll buy a new one. Thanks

Find out more at: www.SmokeAlarmWarning.org Australian legislation (Queensland and the Northern Territory) and legislation in Zealand and some U.S. States mandates the use of photoelectric smoke alarms. Many authorities advise photoelectric alarms are "better" but for legal and political reasons are not allowed to warn that there is anything wrong with ionization alarms. However, in 2016 Australia's most senior fire official representing all fire brigades across Australia and New Zealand went public warning that "ionization smoke alarms should be banned".
