Battery Operated Smoke Alarm
A self-contained smoke alarm with its own battery and built-in sounder, requiring no wiring or control panel. Because installation needs no cabling, it is a practical option for homes, small offices, shops and rooms where extending a wired system is impractical. It sounds locally on detecting smoke. The battery must be tested regularly and replaced on schedule — a battery-operated alarm is only as good as its battery.
