It's nice seeing how we all sometimes get unreasonable mad at electronics, and that we (as an individual) aren't the only ones. I've broken both the legs off my current keyboard from frustration.
Wow it's like a how to basic with buggy eletronics

for him it's creating a comical video demonstrating his frustration with his project not performing well
for you it's the inability to not be like this guy:

I have really bad experiences with fire alarms, we had one that would go off once roughly every 2 hours.
So we bought another one, went off at random times.
Another one, went off because of some smoke from the fireplace(hurray it worked), but the reset button didn't fucking work and wouldn't stop beeping.
Fuck fire alarms
my fire alarm goes off every time i cook.
every
single
time
The machines are taking over.
Oh god the last 15 seconds are so perfect.
Why didn't he just take out the backup batteries?

it involves a screwdriver
at first I thought it was a theft alarm, but then I realized it was just for smoke and carbon monoxide, why would you make the rule not to shut off the alarm manually by the user?

Your fire alarm is telling you that you suck at cooking.

Nest alarms make that tiny bit tricky. Instead of just being a flap, you need a god damn screwdriver.

I can just imagine when the robots take over there all gonna be walking the streets like
"I'm sorry I cannot be hushed here"
What a fucking horrible device. I'd probably end up setting mine one fire, while hearing them go "can't be hushed here" in a low Montatone pitch.
Perfect gift for your enemies

Yea I would just disassemble them and take out the batteries.
These things cost $130 each btw.

Can't be returned here. :^)

And yet a cheap ass $5 smoke alarm I could get at walmart is a hell of a better product.
K.I.S.S.

Christ how hard can it be to make a working fire alarm for that much money
It's not an overly complex thing, even with Nest's networking capabilities
[QUOTE=mecaguy03;47174425]Yea I would just disassemble them and take out the batteries.[/QUOTE]
The model shown is the 120V model, meaning no batteries
They'd be running off reserve power, not idea how long their life is after that, but it stores three AAA batteries in case of power outage, if I'm interpreting this correctly

Agreed, if you wanted just a simple alert to your phone, I bet you could just take a $5 generic alarm and combine it with maybe $20 of network chips to send a alert to your phone.

instantly came to mind.

That's actually not a bad idea. I'd do it if we didn't already have a working set of (non-Nest) networked fire alarms in the house :v:
i bought a nest protect because it light's up my dark and long hallway that has a light switch only on one end. the nest lights up the hallway when you walk under it.
