[QUOTE="ProDave, post: 553551, member: 6969"] DO NOT FIT FIRE ANGEL, you will regret it. * In Scotland the regs are clearer, they must be interlinked, and that can include wireless interlinking, and they can be mains powered or battery powered as long as the battery has a 10 year life. * I have now come across 2 sets of Fire Angel "10 year life" battery smoke alarms that have failed a little after the 5 year guarantee ended, and I took them apart and found the batteries were flat. Fire Angels response was tough, the 5 year guarantee has expired. So IMHO they are fraudulent to describe them as 10 year life and then tell you tough luck when the battery expires after just over 5 years. There must be hundreds like this leaving the owners without the protection of a fire alarm system they thought they were getting. [/QUOTE]
