Over here in Oz, they advise us to change our Smoke Alarm Batteries at Daylight Saving Change-over - so it gets done, or checked, twice a year. So all the clocks are changed back or forward an hour, and the Smoke Alarms are checked and get new batteries.
To have an alarm without batteries, or dead batteries is the stupidest thing out. So many people have come to grief because their smoke alarm did not work. DH checks ours regularly. One of them is in the hall not far from the kitchen, - and often goes off if the toaster is turned up higher than normal, or when he starts cooking. It is Very sensitive - Good!!. Luckily we have a door between the kitchen and the hall, so that usually gets closed when he starts cooking. (He is the cook, - I am the dish-washer!!! :) ) Regards from Liz in Warm, sunny Melbourne, Oz. [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- I am using the free version of SPAMfighter.
