Wall mounted 9 Volt battery box connect to existing ceiling mounted smoke detector

I have a patent on this idea and have used a prototype for a few years.


My Mother who passed away this January at 89, and lived by herself for the past 8 years.

One of the most annoying things to her was the beeping of the smoke detector when the 9 volt battery got low.

There was not always someone around to change it.

Therefore, it may have been a day or two before someone would get there to perform the awarded task of climbing on a chair/or ladder that you transported over to change it.

Now after installing a Faux battery with attached wire the actual 9 volt battery now can be located with easy access on the wall.

Designed with the elderly and physically challenged in mind.

A HELPING SOLUTION - NO TOOLS REQUIRED Just a common pair of household (scissors) to install!

THE LAST TIME YOU WILL CLIMB TO DO THIS CLUMSY AND PERHAPS DANGEROUS EXCHANGE!!!!!!!!!

OK,

The question is do you thing this is a usable product to help save a life?
