Review on πŸ”₯ Kidde Hardwired Smoke & Carbon Monoxide Detector with Voice Alert & Battery Backup – Interconnect Combination Alarm by Bobby Washburn

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Junk battery ship

I bought two of these and the battery in each died after 5 weeks (3 days apart). When I replaced the batteries, I discovered that the battery installed by the company was an unnamed crap from Malaysia. A great way to save a penny on production. Considering these are potentially life saving devices, it seems to me that they should come with Energizer or Duracell alkaline batteries that last 6 months. I will no longer buy Kidde devices. I cannot support companies that squeeze every penny out of their profits, even at the expense of common sense.

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • Disappears
