Yes TC they have a battery inside hard to get at it though, you must take it down, while its alarming be careful as it gives you vertigo loss of balance! the decibells are high. Then take it outside and remove the cover and see inside there is another slot for the batt. I had that prob with a neighbour, mind I was falling around for days after the episode! That should fix it. woohoo128: in that case hit it with a hammer

Mr.Woo you will never believe this, I did hit one with a hammer several times in fact and would it stop no way! not on your life. Damn thing I did get to the batt though eventually and that did stop it. that usually works

I have to admit, I've done that to more than one fire alarm because they went off without reason and wouldn't stop. One time I even took the battery out and the dang things still kept periodically beeping. *beeping* thing

That's a very dangerous piece of advice to give! Entire families have died this way.

Hi I am sure that I gave that advice also, but it is only a way to stop it going off,and have it repaired.

Hi TC ... sometimes the batter works loose, so will just keep going off ..... so maybe it just needs pushing in securely. Have you reported it to the land lord? I should think the other tenants are going deaf by now
Hope its sorted soon

Hi TC well if its making strange noise there is something wrong with it and as its new, may I suggest that you take it back and have them check it. Love the pic by the way! Careful though, its not allowed! Me still under review not allowed to load any pics at all.
