Mungwater 601 Posted March 12, 2007 aren't you suppossed to change batteries in smoke detectors when daylist savings time begins and ends does it make a difference that they now switched the dates on us? they say that so you switch them semi regularly. If you don't like those dates, pick something like the fourth of july and christmas.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
