Now that time has "Fall Back" we need to be reminded that we need to change the batteries in the smoke and carbon monoxide detectors in our homes. I sometimes forget on the day time changes as I am busy changing clocks all over the house and car. I wanted to post this as a reminder to everyone that has not yet changed the batteries in your detectors and for you to remind loved ones that may have forgotten as well. Have you changed yours?
I know many times in the past I have taken batteries out of a smoke detector from my learning curve for cooking lol I always try remember to put the batteries back. Now would be the perfect time to go check all your detectors and make sure new batteries are in them. Something so simple as a new battery in a smoke alarm can save lives.
Since working with Energizer last year for the Change Your Clock Change Your Battery program I have it in my mind that time changes and so do batteries. I remind people I know about changing detector batteries when they remind me of the time change. So be safe and go change those smoke and carbon monoxide detector batteries if you have not since the time change.
