Hey /diy/, the fuck is this on my smoke detector battery and how do I get it off? I need to replace this to stop the horrible beeping.

The fuck is what on your smoke detector battery? It has a smoke detector on it if that's what you're asking.

No seriously, just pop the battery off the connector. It's not rocket science here, just a 9v battery terminal.

See, I tried that, but the connector wouldn't let it go even using a screwdriver as leverage.

Ask your little sister to help if you're not strong enough.

Then cut it and solder on another one

Turns out it was battery acid holding the locks together.

How chinky was your battery or how long has your fire detector had a dead battery in it?

Just this morning when it woke me up at 5:30, cleaning this was a bitch.

If they use radioactive materials to make the sensor in the smoke detector why not make the whole unit nuclear powered anyway?
