Never change a battery again. The Kidde Sealed Lithium Smoke Alarm saves you up to $60 and eliminates battery replacement hassles.
Product Highlights
  • No battery replacement for the lifetime of the alarm
  • Powered by a tamper-free sealed lithium power supply
  • Self-Activation automatically activates unit when attached to bracket
  • Smart Hush silences alarm in non emergencies
  • Money-saving alarm is great for homes and rental properties
This alarm uses ionization sensing technology for the smoke alarm. Ionization sensing alarms may detect invisible fire particles (associated with flaming fires) sooner than photoelectric alarms. Photoelectric sensing alarms may detect visible particles (associated with smoldering fires) sooner than ionization alarms. Kidde strongly recommends that both ionization and photoelectric smoke alarms be installed to help insure maximum detection of the various types of fire that can occur within the home.

Great for Homes and Rental Properties
This tamper-free alarm prevents battery or alarm removal, eliminating worry about unauthorized battery removal or unauthorized deactivation of the alarm. Also, this alarm is a good choice for rental properties and high-density dwellings, as its sealed tamper-free design prevents theft, while also reducing labor and material costs. This helps to ensure that the property and inhabitants are protected by a fully operational alarm.

Easy to Install with Self Activation
The innovative automatic activation of this alarm is unlike any other smoke alarm design. The alarm will automatically activate when it is attached to the mounting bracket; there are no pull tabs and no switches--everything is automatic. At the end of the alarm life, the unit will chirp, indicating the alarm is in need of replacement. You can use a simple tool, such as a screwdriver, to deactivate the unit, stopping the low-battery chirp and making the alarm safe for disposal. The sealed-in board-mounted batteries will power the unit for its complete 10-year life. No replacement batteries will ever be needed.

Trademarked Hush Feature for Convenience
By pressing the smoke alarm's Hush button, you can easily and safely silence nuisance alarms caused by non-emergency situations, such as overcooked dinners. This alarm's Smart Hush feature has the capability of temporarily desensitizing the alarm circuit for up to eight minutes. This feature is to be used only when a known alarm condition, such as smoke from cooking, activates the alarm.

The smoke alarm is desensitized by pushing the Test/Hush button on the smoke alarm cover. If the smoke is not too dense, the alarm will silence immediately. The red LED will illuminate for 1.5 seconds every eight seconds while in Hush mode. This indicates that the alarm is in a temporarily desensitized condition.

Additionally, the smoke alarm will automatically reset after approximately eight minutes and sound the alarm if particles of combustion are still present. Smart Hush can be used repeatedly until the air has been cleared of the condition causing the alarm. Pushing the Test/Hush button on the alarm will end the hush period.

Power Outage Protection, Indicator LED, and Test Feature
A 10-year sealed lithium battery powers this alarm, providing continuous protection against smoke and fire hazards even during power outages. Because a smoke alarm only helps protect you if it's working, this unit features a red LED that flashes every 40 to 45 seconds to indicate that it is operating correctly. For additional peace of mind, the alarm contains a Test/Reset button that enables you to periodically test its circuitry and horn.

The unit measures just 5.6 inches in diameter and 1.5 inches in depth, and it features a neutral, white finish.

This smoke alarm is UL listed, so you can be confident of its quality, and it is backed by a 10-year limited warranty.

4 out of 5 stars It will work if you remove it from the base   January 4, 2010
r flores (coral gables, fl USA)
Someone said it would not. It will. The manual simply discourages it b/c it will stop the unit from functioning.


1 out of 5 stars A battery that lasts 10 years? Fat chance   November 14, 2009

I had great hopes for this completely sealed Kidde smoke alarm that supposedly would go 10 years without needing new batteries. Mine lasted about 10 months and it was never in a real alarm condition, only monthly testing. So much for hoping that 9V battery powered detectors were a thing of the past.

unit lasted less than 18 months. did not give low battery warning before it died. since you can't replace the batteries in this battery operated unit, i am assuming this product is made by apple.


3 out of 5 stars Good, but very sensitive   April 30, 2009
CateyCate (USA)
2 out of 2 found this review helpful

This alarm was easy to install and seems like a great alarm. However, it is VERY sensitive and goes off almost any time we're cooking anything - even if there's no smoke.

We have to take it out of the base everytime we are cooking on the stove or in the oven. THe hush button works, but it's only temporary - and only for about 3-5 minutes before the alarm sounds again. If the hush button stopped the alarm for maybe 20 minutes then it'd be better as you'd be done cooking by then a lot of the time.

So we've found it to be somewhat inconvenient on a day-to-day basis but if there were ever a fire in our house we really would want to have a sensitive detector to alert us ASAP. So we're keeping it due to the safety aspect.




2 out of 5 stars End-of-Life Chirp After 2 Months   April 7, 2009

I'm not impressed. During a recent renovation these were installed all over the house. This was about 2 months ago. One of them just did its end-of-life chirp thing. No way to replace batteries - just disable and throw away. What if they all start dying now?
