Consumer Evaluations

These BRK smoke alarms have issued alarms twice now, which lasted numerous hours each and resulted in lost function time. Initially, two of these would beep every single minute and nothing I tried would stop it, so I had them replaced, and then these seemed to be OK, but pretty much each and every night we would hear a 1 second alarm. Then two weeks later, the alarms went off steady and nothing we attempted would silence or reset them. We even had the gas firm come out to check the gas applicances for CO2, considering that two of the units also had the CO2 detectors built in, but every thing checked out fine, so I just started unplugging the units till the alarms stopped. A handful of days later, the remaining three alarms that I nonetheless had connected began another false alarm and eventually stopped. I do not have time to put up with troubles like this, and it can outcome in not even believing your smoke alarms, when it could be a true fire! I only bought these mainly because they had been plug compatible with the Initially Alert, but I will have to rewire the plug and invest in a better excellent brand.

My residence came wired with about 12 of these with the battery back-up. Due to the fact the 9 volt battery is supposed to power the whole program when electricity is lost they ought to be replaced pretty frequently. They test at about eight.25 volts when expected to be replaced. I have purchased a couple of these non-battery units to replace the ones in the cathedral ceiling that requires a ladder to replace and will invariably begin chirping at 2am on a cold winters morning. I have also replace the a single in our unheated attic which suffers the very same fate.
As lengthy as I can get to the unit I will stick with the battery back-ups but for those hard to reach locations these electric models as a better choice.
