The product, in the report: Nest Protect Smoke and Carbon Monoxide Alarm
My Nest Protect suddenly notified me through the app that the battery was low and needed immediate replacing. Soon after the notification on my phone, the product started beeping to signal a low battery. I waited about 10 minutes before going downstairs to remove it. I didn’t have any alkaline batteries (which the app recommends) so I just removed the existing batteries (which were the original ones that came with the product). When I removed the batteries, I smelled a burning smell and the batteries were extremely hot - far too hot to hold in my hand. I am concerned about the potential fire hazard (these certainly felt hot enough to spark a blaze) if I hadn’t been at home at the time to remove the batteries.
