i think it detect the voltage left by the battery
How does a rain detector works
If the battery dies the smoke detector sill works, that the biggest advantage to using hard wire.
A battery-operated smoke detector is one which is not connected to your homes power supply.
The battery in a smoke detector should last a year (though the detector should be checked monthly). The detector works on "trickle" current that is always there. NiCads will lose more current than an alkaline battery from just sitting around - much more. Even a fully charged NiCad will usually not last a year in a smoke detector. Alkaline batteries will easily.
the battery
The battery for the battery backup is weak maybe
If your home smoke detector is tied into your electricity and is equipped with a battery backup you should not need an additional smoke detector. You should insure that the batteries are charged and that the smoke detector is functioning properly at least once a month if not more often.
If you look to the right, in the bushes, there you will find the battery and the handle for the wheel
Assuming this is a question about a smoke detector: 1.The sensor can be obscured with dirt and/or dust 2. An insect such as a spider may have be obscuring the sensor. Sometimes you will even find a web inside the detector. 3. The detector may be defective. 4. The battery, even though it has been changed, may provide too low a voltage to the device. Make sure the battery itself is OK.
it works in side the battery
Put the battery in the metal detector and then atatch the stick to the cranck click on it get the metal detector and look and wait for a beep and then dig it up with the spade
The Hand Held Meter Detector will work on batteries, as long as you connect each lead to the battery correctly.
