This alarm solves my problem of replacing batteries every year. I no longer can afford the danger of ladders. The ordering process was very easy and the alarm was received in record time considering the current supply chain issues. Excellent product from a great company. Highly recommend it.

We needed to replace all 12 wired smoke detectors in our house and these were a breeze. It took less than 5 minutes per unit and with 10 year batteries, it should be a while before I need to do this again. Thanks First Alert!

The First Alert BRK smoke detectors are the perfect solution to my situation. The builder installed smoke detectors that needed 9V battery changed yearly. Some ceilings are cathedral and I am in my 80s and live alone. No one was told the warranty was for 10 years. They began chirping all over the place. That's how we learned their warranty had expired. In searching for replacements we found these which have a 10 yr lithium battery so no yearly battery switch. Very simple to change out as well.

I did the install & testing myself...4 devices. Very good instructions. All was very easy. I needed to install a new power connector. Each one took ~15 minutes. *** I STRONGLY recommend researching your local fire code. I removed a chirping 10yr non-hardwired unit only 5 yrs old and found a junction box with wires. I called my local code office, and turns out I should have interconnected hard-wired units. Previous homeowner went cheap and not per code. Very glad I upgraded.

Had these installed on every floor of my house. Although I have not had a fire !goodness, they did pick up excess smoke when my husband forgot to put the stove vent on when frying bacon. It was reassuring that they work

Pleased to have 10 year lithium product which does not require battery changes every year. Easy ordering and prompt delivery.
- You may not be holding the test button down long enough. Try holding it down for up to 10 seconds (20 seconds on photoelectric models) .
- Your battery may not be installed properly or snapped all the way in place. Even if the alarm sounded briefly when the battery touched the terminals, you still need to make sure it is snapped securely in place. If the battery is loose, in cannot power the smoke alarm properly. After installing new batteries, be sure to test your smoke detector.
- Your AC power may not be on. AC and AC/DC units will have a power indicator light (red or green) that shines continuously when they are receiving electrical power.
- If you have a 10-Year model, the smoke alarm may not have been properly activated. If the tab broke away before the alarm was activated, you can use a toothpick to move the switch over to test the alarm.
- There may be insufficient battery power, try new batteries.
- Problems with voltage or insufficient electrical power (brown out) may cause a continuous weak sounding alarm. For AC or AC/DC models, temporarily disconnect power at the service panel until the brown out is over. If you do not restore the AC power, your smoke alarms cannot warn you of a fire.
- Incompatible warning device. If an incompatible alarm or auxiliary device is linked into a series of AC or AC/DC smoke alarms it may cause the system inadvertently go off.
