Has anyone else woken up with a burn blister under one of the sensors?

No I have not. I did have some redness but now I clean it once a day and has not happened since

Check connections one might be loose or you hook the hot into sensor might have fried it bottom line recheck your wireing I would start there

I haven't experienced that, but have you tried to unscrew the sensor completely from the socket and/or turned the wall switch off and back on (almost as a reset)?

Here is my last post on this subject.Yesterday, I took a day off from work. Since turning off the alarm for just one day is a pain, I decided to simply turn off the Aluratek for the night, and then turn it back on in the morning. BIG MISTAKE. Now, it will not run. I get the startup "splash" screen for a few seconds, the screen goes blank, and then NOTHING. It is now just a $130 nightlight.Too late to send back. So, I will hack into it and find a better way to use it. If I can build some new code, I let others know.

We had one sensor pad. Had false alarms now and then, but they decreased when we turned the sensitivity up. Also, make sure you have a piece of plywood that covers the entire area beneath the mattress so if the baby is in the crib corner, the breathing can be detected.

Yes, I also smell something burnt from the "brake" pads. It has lessened over time.

no,never happened but you might want to reposition where your sensor is.Remember reading that your problem might happen if it's too close to certain objects.

I know this is a few months old, but just thought I'd pitch in, since I've ran into the same thing on two different FireX detectors (I think it can happen to several brands though). Even after replacing the battery, the alarm code can get stuck and the unit has to be reset. Remove the batteries, unplug from electric. Hold down the Test/Reset button for 15-20 seconds. Plug it back in, but the battery back in and the unit should beep once to say it's been reset and the chirping should stop. I'm getting ready to replace mine because we go through this about once every 3 months.

It appears there is something wrong with the sensor! I will be contacting the manufacturer since it has a warranty.

I have never experienced this situation. However, the instructions say that the alarm should be reset due to an abnormal or operation or previous alarm.

Same here, it's 10 months old and the sensor is broken. Seems to be a trend! Anyone contact the company about fixing it or warranty info?

Mine kept failing and I've found if I put a bit of water on the HR monitor before I put it on it pairs up better. Don't soak it, just run your finger under water and then wipe it on the sensor parts of the HR monitor.

The unit I got burned the first time I hooked it up. It must have had something loose on the inside. I got no response from anyone. Very dissatisfied !

You can dry the sensor and hold the button at the same time and it should reset. If the alarm is still sounding then that means that there is moisture inside the actual alarm portion. Please contact our office if we can help further.

The two sensors that are on the far right of the unit might be crusted with deposits.I would fill the base full with 1/2 water and 1/2 vinegar (if it's real full it will cover thesensors) or you can chip it off but be careful about damaging the sensor).

No. This has never happened to me. After two years of nightly use I do not use it as often. A miracle!

To fix mine I just had to smack it against my hand (without the brush head on) on all four sides a few times. I think something may have been pressed against the sensor and causing it to stay on.
