Too warm of a day, here. About to go to work for the woman who lets me live with her. She wants a shelf.

When you've finished her shelf come over here and fix my smoke detector, please. It was chirping all night long. I tried everything short of smashing it to pieces to get it to quit.
 
did you try changing the battery?

Yes, that was the first thing I tried. It's hot wired to my electrical work. It's got to have something to do with that. After a few hours tho, it just stopped. Maybe it's because I tapped it *lightly* with the bat I hide under my bed.

It's not dead but it is quiet again. I don't want the same thing to happen tonight.

So, new battery didn't work?

They do wear out.

Sounds like you should replace the smoke detector. They don't last forever.
 
spray it out with canned air. it might be dusty inside.

bugs can also get in electronics and make them do stupid shit, but let's not go there cause that's no fun.

fucking ear wigs killing my air conditioner twice....

That's actually good advice. I had the main motor on my fridge burn out because I did not take the time to vacuum out the coils. Who knew?

I have used the canned air to clean the ionizing smoke detector in the duct system at work, before. The old R22 "air" worked best.
