Ordering them from Amazon is a cheaper way to go. You can get the hardwired type with battery backup for about 10 dollars each in a 6-pack. Also, it doesn't make sense to pay an extra 15 dollars each for the ones with a 10 year battery. They are the same as the cheaper ones that have an alkaline battery, except they have a lithium battery. If you want a 10 year battery, just buy the 9-volt lithium batteries separately for about 5 dollars each and replace the alkaline battery that comes with the 10 dollar detector. You will save money and have some extra alkaline batteries to use for something else.
