I replaced the batteries with rechargeable batteries and it still chirped. When plugged in to power it seems to work. Will it only work with the lithium batteries? Or is my alarm bad?</P> Sun, 15 Sep 2024 15:29:56 GMT https://www.googlenestcommunity.com/t5/Nest-Protect/Chirp-dmoke-alarm/m-p/644175#M10690 Dwaine 2024-09-15T15:29:56Z https://www.googlenestcommunity.com/t5/Nest-Protect/Chirp-dmoke-alarm/m-p/644652#M10695 <P><SPAN style="background-color:#ffffff;color:#666666;font-size:10.5pt;">Hi <SPAN style="background: var(--ck-color-mention-background); color: var(--ck-color-mention-text);"><a href="https://www.googlenestcommunity.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/594874">@Dwaine</a></SPAN>,</SPAN></P> <P><SPAN style="background-color:#ffffff;color:#666666;font-size:10.5pt;">Thank you for posting in the community.
