The chirping can last for a month, but yeah eventually they'll die out.

Seems like a lot of beeping going on in the ghetto for something that only last a month or so.

I live in an apartment building with hundreds of units, I'm always hearing beeping because when one detector finally dies, another gets a low battery.

Okay, I say we rig a few PA speakers to the back of a pickup and play the "chirp!" late at night.

What do you think happens? 🤣

That used to be the case but there are so many old smoke detectors around that were designed for lead acid batteries, now everyone puts lithium batteries in them that have almost no voltage drop when they are low on power and they can beep and be functional a year.

If it's a backup battery for a wired in unit it will chirp forever 👍🏿

My smoke detector is wired into the wall, the battery is just backup for power outages. I think a lot of the older ones are like this.
