    I think it is time to move on from this and make it tally with something you do just once a year... take a bath? :D:p

    If you've uploaded to the media gallery, you'll want to scroll down to "Option 2"

    I believe the newer photoelectric smoke alarms can have 10 year batteries?
    Photoelectric Smoke Alarm 10-Year Lithium ~ Family First for fire safety
    And better to have hard wired smoke alarms in any case.
    Ps. I’m not suggesting we have PMs with 10 year terms nor dictatorships...

    Most politicians must have shares in battery company's ! (not just coal/electricity)

    attached to my solar battery ... I'm sure I'll find something to do on a rainy day, even if it's just surfing realestate.com
