    Hi, I have several of these - hot wired with back up battery. One started beeping last week and I replaced battery and beeps continued. Used a battery only CO alarm and there's no CO detected. A second hot wired CO alarm started beeping today and beeps continued after putting in a fresh battery. I removed the alarm from the ceiling to replace the battery. I tested it once new battery was installed( both before and after refitting to ceiling). At one stage all the batteries in the house started a continuous beep and then stopped except for the two rogue ones. I didn't switch off power at trip switch when I was doing the above.

    I've now removed the two rogues.

    The units are 3 years old and not due to be charged until 2026 according to unit label.

    Any suggestions would be appreciated.
