No one hurt Made Sep 27, 2026, sent to the company Oct 6, 2026, published by CPSC Oct 21, 2026
The product, in the report: Manufacturer/Brand: Google / Google Nest Product: Nest Protect Smoke and Carbon Monoxide Alarm Model: 06A Serial: 06AA01AC242309E7 Manufactured: June 27, 2023 Replace by: June 27, 2033 Approx. installation date: January 24, 2024 Battery: [REDACTED]
My Google Nest Protect battery-operated smoke and carbon monoxide alarm (Model 06A) began beeping unexpectedly. I then noticed a burning/electrical smell coming from the unit. I removed the Nest Protect from its mounting location and opened the battery compartment. One or more of the batteries were extremely hot to the touch. I immediately removed all of the batteries and discontinued use of the alarm. The unit was using [REDACTED] batteries, which are the specific batteries required by the manufacturer and printed on the back of the Nest Protect. There was no known external heat source or other apparent reason for the batteries to become extremely hot. I am concerned that an electrical fault, battery failure, or other malfunction within the Nest Protect caused significant overheating and the burning odor, creating a potential fire hazard. No injury or property damage occurred. The batteries were removed before the situation progressed further. The Nest Protect was manufactured June 27, 2023, installed approximately January 24, 2024, and is marked for replacement by June 27, 2033. The device was therefore well within its expected service life when this occurred. I have retained the Nest Protect and affected batteries and have photographs of the device, battery compartment, batteries, and product identification label.
