That's pretty bad. I've been using leftover Toshibas, and they last
at least a year.

I bought 6 smoke alarms at once, so I went for cheap ones. 99p on ebay
I believe.


Oh, *that's* a smart move. Expected though.


I did of course test them. They detect smoke perfectly well.


Ignore krw. He's a nincompoop.
