  • This video shows a Kidde smoke alarm chirping after it was removed from the power source. It does not have a backup battery. The unit chirped three times the first time I removed it and two times the following two times I removed it. I think the extra energy is stored in the capacitor.

    I have the same smoke alarm. How do you remove it? Counter clockwise?

    There is extra power stored up in the capacitor after you remove it from the wallthere's a button after you remove it from the wall and after you replace the battery you need to push a button on it and keep it pressed for about a few seconds so it doesn't go off again.

    My issue is::: My 1 year old Kidde Model i12010SCOCA IONIZATION & Carbon Monoxide Alarm gave a beep @ 4:15 am after what appeared to be a minor power fluctuation. The alarm would go off approximately every 30 seconds, stop then start again. I took the alarm off it's mounting and went downstairs to have a look at it. To my surprise the beeping noise continued Upstairs even though I'm downstairs in the kitchen with the alarm.. I wen back upstairs to look at the wiring. I noticed that the Red Power wire that connects to the alarm connector was loose from the main Red wire. I reconnected it and put the alarm back on. There was no difference, it still beeps every 30 seconds. I checked the other 2 alarms, they are Not beeping, but the Green status lights are blinking while the beeping one upstairs has a Solid Green status light showing. What might the problem be?

      Usually may mean it's at its end of life. Check the manufacturing date and replace it if it's a decade old.

    That's a 10 year spelled lithium battery kidde smoke alarm after 10 years like all smoke alarms and battery operated you need to replace it cheak the date to see if its over 10 years old and if it is over 10 years old replace it

    • @MisterBrownJack
      @MisterBrownJack 4 роки тому +3

      @@savagex466-qt1io Well sadly you cant replace the battery in this since it is an intergraded battery. Also after 10 years you have to replace the unit its self with a new one. Kina like you cant replace the bearings in a washing machine if it has a sealed tub for example. At the same time it is possible to replace the 10 year lithium battery in it if you are determent but at the same time the reason why the battery only lasts for 10 years because you are meant to replace the smoke alarm every 10 years
