Yes, I had the 1275s as well. They are really quite old for a six year old house. ..Mine were installed when I bought the house over 10 years ago...And I suspect they were put in when the house was built. Over time, they all go bad. I replaced all of mine as they failed with the current version Kidde i2040. They cost me $19.99 each on the internet in 2008, but are less than $10 each now. They replace models 1275, 1275k, and 1275h...as well as some earlier models. They are compatible with the old wiring and mounting...and plug right in. They have additional features (smart hush...which allows you to temporarily desensitize the alarm for up to 8 minutes)...if cooking smoke is setting it off, etc)

Some are born free. Some have freedom thrust upon them. Others simply surrender
