Went to Bunnings and got an alarm with a "hush button" and placed it in the hall were the other one was giving false alarms when cooking. Well, my wife opened the oven at one stage and a waft of smoke came out of the oven and within seconds the alarm went off. I went to the broom cupboard and grabbed a suitable weapon! And soon silenced the sucker, it just gave a small chirp every few seconds for the next couple of minutes...beats fanning the hall or getting the ladder out! Thanks for the info about the hush version!

As for the old one...I snuck it onto the toilet ceiling. Often we come home to the smell of cigarette smoke in the loo. This should put an end to that dirty habit! Being such a small room, and solid brick...it is LOUD! Should certainly sort out any constipation issues
