Out of the Blue

Almost like it knew the time is upon us to change the clocks again, one of the BlueTower's smoke detectors started beeping last night (Murphy's Law dictates they always go at night). This is something both the detectors have been doing lately, way too soon for it to be time to change the batteries. This was the last straw in my decision they both need to be replaced, and examining and doing a little reading about them, I realize this is completely on me, as these guys are close to 15 years old. From what I can tell, they should be replaced after 8-10 years, so I've been skating along with sketch safety equipment for a while now, which is scary.

I had spiders living in one of my smoke detectors, and when one went off, they all went off since they're wired together. No idea which one was triggering it, but I opened them up and vacuumed them out, and haven't had a problem since.
