Smoke Detector Batteries Imperative For The Safety Of Your Home

March 17, 2010 - PRLog -- Battery Station, the UK’s leading online supplier of batteries confirms that Ultralife batteries are the ultimate choice for ensuring smoke detectors are fully charged up at all times.

The Ultralife battery operates as a safety device that will ensure smoke alarms are always powered up, helping alert those nearby to danger should a fire hazard occur. With an eight-year life span, it is considered by fire departments to be the ultimate choice for smoke detectors. Each battery is also suitable for use at low temperatures, which means that they will endure the coldest of European climates and can be used in empty buildings where heating is minimal to nothing.

The Ultralife U9VL battery features a 1.2mAh capacity, which is twice that of typical alkaline cells. As a long life battery, it is considered the ultimate safety device; meaning that you can rest assured that the smoke alarm will go off should fire strike.

From landlords and homeowners to those operating business premises, there a number of sectors of society required to follow stringent fire regulations in order to assure the safety of those under their care. Landlords, who need to meet a series of requirements before leasing their property to a tenant, are usually expected to prioritise the installation of fire alarms. This also includes businesses and property owners responsible for premises, as well as schools, colleges and educational institutes - all of which are expected to meet fire safety regulations with the installation of a fire alarm.

Fire rescue services can be called out to ensure the smoke detector in the home or business is fully functional. It is also possible for them to detect if there is fault with the fire alarm itself, or if it is the battery that needs changing.

One of the most common causes of fire-related incidents is the failure of the fire alarm. Often, the situation can be avoided by simply testing the battery and installing a replacement if necessary.  

Recommended by the fire services, the Ultralife U9VL is considered one of the safest long term solutions. Purchase one today at www.batterystation.co.uk for less than £5.
