I think when you buy a Kidde of First Alert all's you're paying for is the name brand. I like these and they're like 5 bucks. These work just as good as an expensive one does.
lol yeah we used to have them at our house, then we upgraded to those new silencable networkable ones. I have 2 of the old ones laying around here somewhere...
These Family Gard FG888D smokes should seriously be recalled. I do my own "smoke tests" on my smoke detectors, and even my 15 year old 83R was more sensitive than a new one of these!

Well, it worked for me. I did a smoke test on it, and it went off within 5 seconds. And the smoke was 1ft from the alarm and it went off! LOL

Maybe yours is a slightly different model. Some firefighters tested the FG888D and they got basically the same results that I did.

Well I just locked the button into place in the cover and closed it, causing the button to push together the contacts and it activated the alarm. :)
