Pros & Cons
Pros
The smoke detector has a long-life lithium battery. The manufactured date on all are 2008 oct 20. I will continue to use kidde now that i know what a strong warranty they have and honor.
Cons
If the oven opens, the alarm goes off. Won't stop alarming even after resetting several times. Pressing the button to shut down the alarm for a few minutes does not work.
The date stamped on them says 2017. While i understand ca has a law requiring a certain battery, these 10 year concealed batteries are a nightmare. Who cares if the battery would last 10 or one million yearsif the alarm lasts less than 2 years.
It's 2022 and one is already beeping for low battery. It was deactivated and disposed. It's being replaced with a traditional change the battery with dst smoke alarm.
