Battery Voltage Being Too High ?

Hello:
Have been buying a bunch of those standard 9V batteries (a few different
brands) over the past few months, and have noticed that instead of 9V they
have been measuring out, with a VOM, at around 10.0 to 10.25. �This is under
no load.
Anyone else notice this ?
Was wondering if this might be the cause of all the problems I've been
having with my fire alarms
giving 3 to 4 chirps, around once a day ?
It's probably the same type of chirp signal that the unit gives when the
batteries are low.
Thanks,
Bob
I doubt thats it, under load the voltage drops fast,
Have you blown the fire alarms out with compressed air....
They might be overheating
OVERHEATING????? Geez from what hollerbutt?
