Mine's been chirping for months.

You just tune it out eventually.

[Edited on January 12, 2011 at 1:20 AM. Reason : ^^It still chirps even when it's off the wall. He's gotta change the batts.]

Do you own a hammer?

If not, are you a man? Use your fist.

I had the batteries go out in mine and pulled the dead battery and the damned beeping still didn't shut up!!

I replaced the battery in the detector in the hall and complained to the management after going nearly half insane. They asked me if I changed the battery in the one in the bedroom?

There's 2 in my place?

Fail.

sometimes if there are multiple smoke detectors they are controlled by a panel. so if one screws up, they allllll screw up.

but i dunno if 2 warrants a panel

i'm just saying. i recently learned this information after calling 911 because i couldn't get 10 smoke detectors to stop going off in the middle of the night even after batteries were removed. there was talk of a panel.

so confusing.

i pulled the battery out of mine when it started chirping, never bothered to replace it. So far so good.


Also i've had smoke detectors chirp on me for low battery 3 times in my life and all 3 times were in the middle of the night. Why can't it go off during the day when i'm not in deep sleep?

The one at my brothers isn't a normal "Chirp." It is like some on is squeezing the shit out of the loudest song bird known to man.

If you have pulled the battery out and it's still beeping, hit the test button to drain the power from the rest of the components.
