I have an old thermostat that just sitting around that runs on battery.

Does this seem true regarding changing the smoke detector batteries?

I move to a place in Twentynine palms and the outside is full of rats at night and now I can hear them in my attic under my sink and in my wall the landlord is trying to tell me I bring the and its a smell of dead mice in my attic and he tells me I have to go in the attic and replace battery my boyfriend and his friend went in there and almost got sick from the **** and piss that's up there what do I do 

We had those fake video camers (the one were you put batteries in them and they had a red blinking light) around the whole house.

It puts them on the hook if they remove the battery and something happens. 

Beware though this is very battery intensive on our phone and will pretty much suck it dry from 100%. 

They even require an electrical permit for battery operated smoke detectors.

You're really going to keep losing rent over a $3 battery and $1.50 electrical outlet?

They passed a battery of tests to become certified and have a code of ethics.Paul

Thanks BP pod cast I think with Jonna Weber (pod cast 80 I think) I would like to apply the 6 month fire alarm battery change.
