This is not a joke or a bit:

Why do smoke detector batteries always die overnight?

I legitimately want to know. I have been an adult living on my own (i.e. responsible for #SmokeDetectors) for 18 years now. I've probably replaced a dozen #batteries over that time period. I've never done so in daylight, and usually it's after midnight.

Has anyone done this research? Is anyone from #Kidde on the Fediverse? I need to know.
