If we ever get to stay on Daylight Saving Time, we'll have to figure out other reminders to check our smoke alarms and change the batteries, but until then:
Change the batteries in your smoke alarms. Even if they are wired into your electrical system there is a back up battery for when the power is out.
I just found out there's a battery in my thermostat. I found out when the thermostat stopped working and started flashing LO LO LO LO. Not particularly helpful, particularly in the middle of the night. I had to go to the internet to find out it needed new batteries. I didn't even know it had old batteries. Since we've had it for eight years, you are probably safe with yours - but now you know what it means when it starts flashing you.
