This video got me back to sleep. I was up between 1 am and 2:30 am with the low battery chirp and feeling incredibly helpless. You saved me! My "manual" said nothing about discharging the detector by holding the button down after the batteries were removed. It also did not explain the weird red latches (what should I call them?) that had to be held down to install the batteries, or what to do with the weird yellow tape (please!). I followed the directions with little hope that it would actually work, but to my amazement it did. I am a 65 year old woman living alone. You and the rest of the commenters here (I read all of them, they were super helpful) are my heroes! Long live KZread.

I would just push the button and the chirping will stop for about 12 hours.

Dude I was forcing myself to sleep through the chirp. You saved me.

I found these videos to be informative but I still couldn't get the beeping to stop even in a new device with new batteries. I drained the charge and restored the power but it still chirped. I finally decided to look at the other smoke alarms in the system. I found an old battery which I removed and replaced. I then did a re-cycle of the problem device and when I restored power and inserted the battery it was quiet. Its been quiet for 10 hours. I have concluded that the failing battery in the other unit was affecting the completely new smoke detector. I really hope this is helpful.

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! After 3 new batteries, and an hour standing on the ladder, I was about to rip the whole freaking unit right off the ceiling!

We had to defective smoke alarms, put in the same place when the maintenance guy took them out it was tripping on the ground without being connected, and without a battery being in at my dog almost had a heart attack. I had to take him outside. He was panting so bad.

Thanks for posting this, Michael. I just reset the faulty alarm that was waking us between 1 and 2 AM regularly. I took the time to do the rest of the house's alarms as well. Hopefully we've heard the last of the chirping. While I had them down, I also blew some dust out of each one with compressed air, as I had read about elsewhere. Seemed like a good idea. Much appreciated!

I am already happy to see this thank you

Thanks Michael, this is just what I needed to know. I climbed a shaky 16 foot ladder to change the battery on a wired smoke detector, and as soon as I got down, it started beeping again. I never had to reset it before inserting a new battery but I replaced the battery again with a new one and did the reset this time and it is now not beeping any more. I tested both batteries with a cheap Radio Shack analog tester and both were in the GOOD zone. But I measured the voltage of both, as you suggest in the video, and I found the first battery to be at only 7.6V. The second one was at 9.33V, so I don't know if the problem was the lower voltage of the first battery, alone, or the fact that I did not reset the unit, or both. Probably the low voltage alone, but it is better to do the simple reset anyway, just in case.

You mean same electrical circuit right? Mine are not attached to a security system. There is only one LABELLED circuit for smoke detectors in the panel.

9laral9 Great question! Yes, same electrical circuit. Below is a video that I made that talks specifically about the hard wiring on same circuit. I love this new coded inspection...it definitely increases safety! You might find the video helpful. 😎👍 kzread.info/dash/bejne/nWt-r6p7gNCYmdI.html

Good afternoon, we are happy to hear this. Thanks for taking the time to reach out to us and share this. Hope all is well. Enjoy your upcoming week. 😎👍

The Reset after disconnect is a great idea. In our case we installed a brand new 9 Volt battery. The chirping began several hours later. I yanked the new battery out and ran a battery test which started at 6 volts and quickly dropped to 0 volts in seconds. A brand new Duracell battery was the issue. Bad quality control by Duracell perhaps.
