Gah!
So, you remember that episode last year when M was away on business and our carbon monoxide alarm started going off? And they decided it was a spider setting it off?
Yeah, I went and spent big bucks on specialty alarms after that. A carbon monoxide alarm for the first level of the house and a combo carbon monoxide/explosive gas one for the basement. We don't even HAVE gas - I bought it because we had talked about getting a gas line put in someday.
While the power was out the batteries in both died. I went out this afternoon and bought all new batteries for them and the smoke alarms too (to the tune of $30! WTF!). I get home and pop it in the gas one starts freaking out saying GAS! GAS! WTF! WE DON'T HAVE GAS!
I took it outside, way away from the house and tried again and it did the same thing so I sat outside, freaking out, until M got home. It was doing the same for him so he busted out the instruction booklet. And you know what? IT'S SUPPOSED TO DO THAT.
I don't know who's idea it was to have the reset yell GAS! and beep a dozen times but they should be shot. Seriously. If I wasn't on edge enough, that totally sent me over.
