SaferProducts.gov consumer incident report 20260522-5301F-2147318873. Severity: Incident, No Injury. Product: KIDDIE 20SA10 (Kiddie Smoke Alarms model 20SA10). Incident: ive purchased Fire X brand smoke alarms for many years never had any issues. unfortunately the KIDDIE brand bought the FireX brand and changed the design or quality of components. ive been managing apartments for 15 years and always used ForeX brand. in the last twelve months 5 New Alarms have failed within 1-2 months. they start going off in the middle of the night or in the day even when no one is home. no appliances are on . no stoves, no heaters nothing. ive read online that there has been many complaints of these alarms triggering for no apparent reason. The company must be aware of the issue and havent issued a recall on the Hard wired smoke Alarms. i think its work looking into doe to the fact that there Alarms are designed to save lives. if they are defective and dont operate as designed to trigger when there is smoke in the room . its worthy to look into the issue.
