With recent events, we should all make sure our homes are safe and I have renewed my 9v smoke alarms where the battery goes regularly with these 10 year life smoke alarm. These are both optical and thermal and can be used anywhere in the house expect the kitchen. The price at Toolstation is circa £4 cheaper than screwfix and the best deal I could find.

I have had two of these fail within a couple of years. I managed to get one replaced under warranty but could not find the receipt for the other. I suspect the reliability may mean they won't last 10 years so keep the receipt!

I have these smoke alarms and you don't need a receipt. They fail regularly so just phone the company with the alarm next to you (they unclip from a base) and they ask for the serial number. Then they send another in the post free of charge and just ask you dispose of the old one properly in return.

These are supplied free from local Fire Brigades in the North East.

Is the short life version a killer device?
