Comment on First Alert smoke detector...non replacable battery supposed to last 10 years...dies after 4...the verify you're human puzzle does not work on 3 different browsers I tried
No of course not, but you didn’t need a completely new smoke alarm when the battery is empty.
The battery was fine. It was the alarm that had degraded to the point that it always “detected” smoke.
Turns out smoke alarms should be replaced every 10 years or so.
