Kidde Smoke Detector, 10-Year Battery Powered, LED Warning Light Indicators

it looks vey good quality

We were getting tired of false-alarm smoke detectors and having them all sing out in unison. Also, getting tired of replacing expensive 9v batteries each year for the 7 of them. This smoke detector has a 10 year battery, loud alarm and easy installation. We opted for the battery only model and tucked the low-voltage wires away underneath the mounting brackets. If the brackets aren't drilled for your wiring box dimensions, they're easily modified with a drill using a small drill bit to drill guide holes and then expanded in diameter with a larger bit to the size needed. Once the base plate is mounted, just turn the detector on the base a quarter turn. The battery is activated with a chirp. A quick button test to make sure it's active. That's it. I'm not a wiz at the mechanics, but the advertisement says that this model reduces false alarms by using traditional as well as visual tech in order to determine an actual fire or smoke danger. So... set it and forget it (with whatever test schedule is right for you) and don't worry about them again until 2035!

kiddee quality and upgraded looks

Very easy to install. We had a Kidde smoke detector for 10 years without changing any battery, so when it started beeping we ordered the same brand, all my husband had to do we twist the old one to remove and twist on the new kidde smoke detector! So easy, he was expecting it to be a pain, it was not and he was thrilled! Will definitely buy again. Arrived on time!

This smoke detector is a great value for the home. The battery lasts for 10 years so no need to replace the battery every 6 months. It is wireless, so you don't need to hard wire it to the electrical system. The accuracy is spot on with no nuisance alarms. It will be a good item to get when you need a replacement detector.
