|  Do you have smoke detectors at your place? If so, did you change the batteries today (they say you're supposed to change them every new year.) | |

| Have only one. And we're not that good at changing batteries. Good idea! Thanks for the heads up! | |

| Smoke detector and CO detector. And you should change the batteries twice a year. A good rule of thumb is change them when you change your clocks during the daylight savings changes. | |

| I have one in my apartment and I don't think it has batteries. If it does someone comes in here and changes them because I never have. Been here over six years and the thing works everytime I heat my cast iron skillet too hot and I have to hit the reset button.
It really doesn't matter because I doubt it would wake me up - the high pitch is a barely audible tone for me. (I have to use a windup alarm clock because the little squeak on the electric ones doesn't do it for me) | |

| Mine doesn't have batteries, I don't think. Usually what will happen is when the batteries get weak, those things will begin to squeak. I have been in my apartment for years and it has never done this. | |
