Kidde Carbon Monoxide and Smoke Alarm [Posted on 2008-04-23]
Item appears to work as expected. I haven't owned it long enough to know about battery life. Fairly easy to install.
Seems to work, but only spoke on test [Posted on 2008-05-09]
It installs easily and is very loud. It went off once or twice for a fairly good reason, but it didn't speak either time.
Works , No gimmicks , [Posted on 2008-05-21]
Basic Carbon monoxide detector / fire alarm , works well (went off, when I was running a clean cycle on our stove).
It's got a voice prompt so you really know what has triggered the alarm.
Easy to install.
Has clicker so that you can adjust it to be perfectly horizontal for aesthetic purposes.
Great Value!!! [Posted on 2008-06-18]
I originally purchased two of these 7 years ago when I moved into our new home. The two I just purchased are replacing the original two. Being a Firefighter I am very safety minded. Because these are two-in-one alarms, I think they are a super buy. About 4 years ago one of the alarms went off in the middle of the night warning of Carbon Monoxide. My charcoal grill was put back into my garage too soon and CO was building up in the house. THANKS to Kidde and this alarm system!!! Remember to replace these units every 5-7 years and replace the batteries every time the time changes...(every 6 months)
Do you like paying for an electrician? Then buy Kidde products. [Posted on 2008-07-31]
I've had the Kidde combination smoke and carbon monoxide alarm installed for three years and have paid $300 in electrician bills to install and fix them. Tomorrow morning I will pay again because the things wont stop chirping again.
The chirping is not caused by the battery. All the wire-in units have been reset. This is not the first time this is happened or that the units have alarmed because of a malfunction. Last time the units were still under waranty and Kidde replaced one. (Kidde didn't offer to pay for both visits by electricians.) Tomorrow morning I will pay another electricial but this time to unistall all of the units. I'm going back to the simpler battery-opperated ones (not by Kidde). I will never buy another Kidde product.
Oh, and forget any trouble-shooting help from the manual or the KiddeUs.com site. I found no help for this either place.
