Incident narrative

SaferProducts.gov consumer incident report 20240701-A880F-2147338274. Matched catalog product: Kidde P4010ACS. Source model text: P4010ACSCO-W. Incident: Kidde P4010ACSCO-W alarms during periods of high humidity, like most of the summer in Baltimore. This has led me to remove these devices from service so I can actually sleep at night. I hope I don't burn in a fire because of their negligence. Looking at their reviews, a lot of people have a similar problem.
