 ESL, Interlogix Hard-Wired Smoke Alarms Recalled Due to Failure to Alert 
 Consumers of a Fire 
 
 Recall Summary 
 Name of product: 
 ESL and Interlogix brand 400/500 series smoke detectors manufactured in China.
 
 
 Hazard: 
 
 Radio frequency interference can cause the smoke detectors to fail to alert 
 consumers of a fire.
 
 Folks these are smoke detectors hard-wired into security systems likely 
 installed within the last two years by the builder of your house or 
 apartment. They are deactivated by RF meaning your ham radio could deactivate 
 your smoke detector. Kind of important considering how many smoke tests some 
 of us run. Don't forget to tell your neighbors too, especially if your houses 
 are built by the same contractor.
