We installed these years ago in our home due to our wood burner. All of a sudden all three of them began beeping with "ERROR" as the message (not low battery, which is the norm). A quick internet search reveals that they have a seven-year life from manufacture date! Apparently, since we bought the monitors at the same time ... probably seven years ago ... they are all becoming extinct at the same time! I just thought this was interesting to note and pass on.
