Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)We bought several of the DuPont "Screw-In Self-Charging Smoke Alarm" for use in our basement stair well, our detached garage\workshop, and in our unfinished attic. These are all places that are hard to reach to replace the batteries once a year in conventional smoke detectors. These work well if you read (and follow) the directions, but they are not for everyone -
Pros:
+Charge directly from light socket (light switch has to be on for several hours to charge)
+Fairly sensitive
+Very loud
Cons:
-Can't be used with a regular light shade
-Needs to be recharged several times a month (not a problem for us since we use these rooms several times a week)
-Low battery beeping is annoying, but does get your attention
These might not be for everyone, but they do work for my needs.

Simply screw into single ceiling light fixture, then attach bulb. Works well with track lighting (std. bulb socket). Not for use in wall mounted lights, table lamps, standard lamps or any other lighting fixture. Always fit alarm within 8 1/2 inches from ceiling
