Well possible; there was an intermittent electrical burning odor upstairs off and on for about a month then last week at about 11:45 pm the wife wakes me up to investigate why the all the alarms where blaring for about 5-10 seconds approximately every hour. None of the detectors indicated source of smoke with the red light sequence. I disconnected the detectors one a time to isolate the culprit. It was the 4th of 6 detectors at 3 am when I could finally continuously go back to sleep.
Took the alarm apart and notice the large black resister for the red capacitor was the source of heat and smoke. Alarm install date: June 09, 2007.
