Wired smoke alarm battery?

Nov 10, 2019 0 Replies

Was checking my smoke alarm batteries and noticed that they were all measuring above 10V! I am now thinking that wired smoke alarms apparently trickle-charge the batteries? Thus you should use only carbon-zinc batteries -- OR YOU MIGHT CAUSE A FIRE! ;-) Where is this in the fine print?
