Set Clocks Back and Change Detector Batteries This Weekend

Daylight Saving Time ends Sunday morning and the Minnesota Department of Public Safety recommends you change your smoke and carbon monoxide alarm batteries when you set your clocks back.

I used to be someone who would forget to change detector batteries until they chirped at me to do so. However, I realize that relying on an inanimate object for such an important task isn't a great idea.

Changing your detector batteries can be the difference between life and death in a fire and the Minnesota Department of Public Safety has shared this video to drive home that point.
