Let me tell you a cautionary tale. Once upon a time, my husband was out of town when the battery in our alarm needed to be changed. It was 3 o'clock in the morning. In my sleepy stupor, I couldn't find 9V batteries that worked (WHY DOES JOE MIX OLD AND NEW BATTERIES?!). Picture me, rummaging through random drawers in the garage trying to find a working battery at 3:00 am, and then, still half asleep, trying to figure out which of the 4 alarms upstairs was chirping because of course one beep sounds like it's coming from every alarm. Well, I avoided a Pheobe moment (Major bonus points if you get that reference!) and figured it out eventually, but when I got an opportunity to upgrade to an alarm with a sealed battery that lasts 10 years AND one with voice and location technology, I was intrigued.
