I have this alarm in my basement. Not to sound dumb, but I didn't notice it until I heard it chirp.

I had one of these in my old house more than 5 years ago and it didn't sound like that, it was like a modern sound in nower-days like a "beep beep beep beep"...
-
When I heard that alarm in a different video it was at a much lower pitch.

Gamealarm, if you have the original GE 12 volt detector, (the one with the brass horns inside them), could you please take the battery out of the 8201-2 (if it is still good), and make another video of that one? It had a different sound. That one was the cooler detector.

I don't believe so, though I recall ones using piezos (just as GE was switching from this design to their rectangular design), although it might have been a dream...

how long u had that smoke alarm
We used to have a GE smoke alarm powered by the 12-volt battery, but the alarm sounded more like the old Intermatic in NiLind's video. The sensing chamber in the interior of the detector was also different, with multiple circular holes. We stopped using it, because this battery was close to $15 a piece, when a new smoke alarm would cost less than that. Was just curious why your alarm sounds different. Do you know why different GE models had different sounds?

In the early 80's, GE changed them to a more rectangular size, with a warbling, cone-shaped piezo sounder. Black & Decker then bought out their smoke alarm line. I believe the B&D model number was SMK67D.
