      My take is that Cooler temperatures will cause the battery voltage to sag slightly. Which is why the low battery chirps always go off at night.

    Thanks for this important info. Here in Canada we don't throw batteries in the garbage, we accumulate them and there are drop off venues to take them to, Library, etc. or once a year we can put them out in a clear bag/container and they will be picked up with the garbage.

    personally, i feel interconnected smoke alarms are more hassle than they are worth. unless you live in a mansion, you can hear any smoke alarm from any other location in a house. ours trigger out of the blue for some reason and almost destroy our hearing. identifying the initiating smoke alarm in a panic when they are all blasting ear-splitting beeps is impossible. i have to pull each one off the ceiling and disconnect it, and pull its battery, one by one. it's a real annoyance. we're going to non-interconnected. i.e. clipping the red or orange wire!

  • @johniverson7393

    I zoomed out to watch starting where the notation said you could see smoke, 11:36 or something. I watched those houses like a Snow Falcon for 20 minutes and saw nothing, then realized the vid had been stopped when i zoomed the screen 20 min earlier. So i was pretty much staring at a picture.

    Good video - thank you! Also, though, do NOT suggest throwing old batteries in the garbage! They should be recycled/properly disposed of through the local waste management company. An efficient and easy way to do this is to use a special cardboard box and mark it "used batteries." Then, simply add old batteries to it until it's time to call the waste management outfit in order to get that special electronic waste, etcetera, pickup 👍...because we have enough bad stuff brewing in our landfills as it is. It is, in fact, the law in many jurisdictions that one must properly expose of toxic waste; the most commonly known among them being old motor oil/transmission fluid/brake fluid.

    Looks like more stupid city mandated trash. All at our expense. I've always had the old battery powered ones that were flat, and don't look like some ugly lump you'd see at a hotel. They work fine. They even beep when they're going dead. No need for this wired crap. If the city wants it, let THEM pay for it. Out of their own personal pockets not the taxpayer.

    So, did no one in the entire neighborhood have a garden hose? My first response has been, in the past, and would have been, in this case, to grab a hose and start spraying the fire until the fire department got there. I've done this like four times in the past, with structure fires, grass fires and a hay bail fire. It seems people are just clueless these days!
