Whatever you do, do NOT ALLOW your contractor to install this extremely poorly designed device in your home. It doesn’t have to be this annoying to change a battery while standing on a ladder with a deafening piercing alarm going off. Screw this company and its engineers.
@@chadripley2776THANK GOODNESS FOR YOU bc I just changed my batteries & it wouldn’t stop alarming so yes I did the circuit breaker method & it worked!!! 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
0:23 what the fuck. you dont even show us how to remove the alarm from the wiring. You just completely skip over it. This is the part im having trouble with and other people are too in the comments. Yet you manage to show video of an amazon 9v battery for like 10 seconds and skip over the important part of how to remove the wired part
It’s supposed to just come off, if you’ve never taken it out before it might be a little tight but it does come off. If it’s too hard try cutting the power to where your alarm is, that works too.
The manual says that 2 chirps approximately every 20 seconds, with the green light on and blinking every 20 seconds, with the other lights off = a Product End-of-Service Life Notification; and the alarm should be replaced immediately.
Red light: Smoke or Carbon Monoxide Green light: Alarm operating in normal service. Red light flashing with the green light: Alarm operator is in good condition. Blue light: Gas leak.
And yes, if it flashes blue all the time, it means that its having a gas test: If the blue light is on all the time, it is stuck on gas mode and must be replaced

Were I not a renter I would have rather put a shotgun hole in my ceiling
I’m so fucking annoyed by the thing
And you have to turn off the circuit breaker and unwire it just to change the battery. Very poor design

how did you remove the wire? mine seems so hard to remove
SAME HERE. horrible video. He just says “remove the wire” at 0:23. Ok how!? He just does a jumpskip without explaining. He sounds fat
I can’t get mine off either. Did you find a solution?
Thank you for this informational and demonstrative video. It definitely helped.
Mine does not have a place to remove the battery. Any advice?
Neither does mine but I see he didn’t respond👎🏾
Mine don't also
Neither does mine
Ok,but when I put the battery in my si electric. How do I stop it from beeping?
don't put new battery in
why do you need to discharge any remaining power from the capacitor? what would happen if you dont do it and instead, immediately replace the battery?
It releases the remaining energy inside the capacitor inside the smoke detector.
thank you!
Thanks
I have this one in my house on october 31st 2011
Ok
My is going double beep in 20 seconds interval. Changed the battery. Nothing happens. Please help! 🙏🏻
Any luck with this? I’m dealing with it now

worst fire alarm in the market
Mine always flashes blue. Is this ok?
Red light: Smoke or Carbon Monoxide
Green light: Alarm operating in normal service.
Red light flashing with the green light: Alarm operator is in good condition.
Blue light: Gas leak.
And yes, if it flashes blue all the time, it means that its having a gas test:
If the blue light is on all the time, it is stuck on gas mode and must be replaced
Aa
Mine is doing a quock chirp then beep. Randomly
