Okay, here is the setup.
All my smoke detectors are wired to the house electrical. They also have backup batteries.
Well they all went off. No fire, etc.
So, I took out all the batteries and reset the electrical circuit breaker to shut them up, which it did. Then I turned the electrical back on and they stayed quiet.
One by one I add a NEW battery back in and then all of a sudden they all start going off again (even when I put the batteries back in in different order).
I go through the whole routine AGAIN. Same result.
I think I finally got them quiet with three with batteries in and three with batteries out. But the electrical is on, so logic would would have it that a dirty detector would go off even with battery out and electrical on.
Any ideas what the heck is going on?
