Beeps long single alarm at times, I have 7 of these in my new house. I called BRK they say Disconnect them from power and then see which one beeps and they will replace just that one!!! HELLO BRK I HAVE 7 ALL OVER THE HOUSE AND IT BEEPS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT !! So telling which one is a joke. So I call back and just tell them all of them are malfuncting (I thought that would get them to replace all of them) Wrong! now they want me to climb the ladder again and get all he numbers from the back of detectors..... Hey BRK I fixed the problem I climbed the ladder and replaced them with new Kidde units !!!! Problem fixed
Lesson learned, Stay away from BRK and First Alert Products
Customer Review: Another voice in the chorus
Summary: 1 Stars
I have the misfortune of having recently moved into a new home with one of these smoke detectors. I agree with many of the reviewers here, and am writing this review just to add my voice to the chorus. Attention potential buyers: This thing is far worse than useless. Random intermittent ear-piercing bleeps, unintelligible documentation, shoddy worksmanship ... it's making my life a living hell. I replaced the battery and cleaned the unit with compressed air a month or so ago and it was quiet for a bit, and now it's starting to go off in the middle of the night (and at other random times) again; worse, since all the smoke detectors are interconnected, when this one goes off they all go off.
It's a horrible piece of junk. Steer clear.
Customer Review: RIP-OFF!!!!!!
Summary: 1 Stars
This product is TERRIBLE! We have a combination of 4120Bs and 9120Bs and they have gone off intermittently ever since our electricians installed these. A lot of the time, these go off during the middle of the night, probably due to power fluctuations--but I agree with the poster who questioned "Why have a battery backup?" if the thing won't work. There are undoubtably going to be fluctuations of the power grid; but when these go off for that reason, in my mind is reflective of poor design. Replacing the battery is a challenge worthy of a the most expert puzzle solver. My advice -- look for another brand, or buy earplugs.
