YEP...hard to tell where those high-freq beeps are coming from...had a lady totally irate the "my" smoke detectors were beeping (they're always MINE when they make noise) insisted I come out even though we didn't install smokes in her house...so I drove 40 miles to prove to her it was something else...yep...it sure was...it was her pillbox alarm in her purse. Here's your sign lady.

It | turned out to be a battery operated smoke alarm. Where do you think we | found it?? On top of the hot water tank. | | |
