Yesterday while cooking I set off the smoke detector, no I did not burn anything. They go off when I cook over a high heat. And yesterday once they started going off they would not stop. I ended up having to disconnect them all (they are hard wired with an interconnect) and I replaced them this morning. Aaaaaaaand let me tell you, I had a sleepless night last night knowing there were no detectors installed.

    You mean those things that make noise when I don’t want them to?

    Yeah, I removed the batteries.

    Dying from smoke inhalation in my sleep sounds like one of the easier ways to go.
