Default Smoke Detectors

Anyone have their detectors go off this morning around 4 am? Just trying to rule out a power surge or brownout. I changed all the batteries and plan on cleaning out the dust and/or cobwebs in each one. Those slide out compartments really make it hard to replace the batteries.

eremite.... not last night but a couple of weeks ago at 3am. No reason for it. Probably a bug or dust got in there and set it off. Just cleaned it out and no recurrence. This has happened before, too.

Enough noise to wake the dead!!!
