Default Beeping can't find the reason

I have something that is beeping at me exactly every two minutes. I
have ruled out the usual suspects of smoke alarms, the microwave. And
even some stranger ones like my cell phones, oven timers, etc. Sounds
to me like a battery is going dead, but can't figure out what it
might be. Having trouble tracking down where it is because of the
long time frame between beeps. Any suggestions of things to look for?


Burglar alarm or, more likely, carbon monoxide detector.


My smoke detectors continue to chirp after the batteries are removed. The
first time it happened I continued to look for the culprit for some time after
it was taken care of. Happened again Sunday morning at 4:00AM (though this
time I knew it was going to continue). Stupid things!
