Daylight Savings Time and your Smoke Detectors

It's that time of year again to change the clocks back an hour at 2am tomorrow. Please remember to change your smoke detector and carbon monoxide detector batteries as well. If you always change your batteries when it's time to turn the clock back or forward you'll never have to worry about them.

Have fun with your extra hour!

I am going to use that hour to try and find the guy who came up with this stupid idea and make him reset all my clocks.

Thanks for the reminder, Ana. I like this time change better than the other one, but I don't like it being pitch dark by 5:30 p.m.

The funny thing is that we are returning to what is the normal time so it would be getting dark then anyways. I just wish they would pick a time and leave it and whatever happens, happens. I hate when we change back or forward.

Ditto! I don't really see the point of changing the clock.

Changed the clock last week. It messed up my internal clock again.

It messed up ALL my clocks!! &^%&&^%%$idiot idea

Ana what a good idea to make the time change for checking those batteries. Thanks!

Thanks for the reminder Ana. Love the extra hour too.

Thanks for the reminder, Ana. I'm with you...wish they'd just leave it alone!

I'm with you Geo! Lets carpool and find that guy! I have so many clocks (some old ones from the 50's) that I have to spend 2 days setting and resetting all of them. Awful. Worst are the 'satellite' clocks which have to be taken down, placed near a window or outside to get the signal. Arrraaaghhhh!
