Eek, that's scary. I didn't dismantle the inner casing though - the wires are the ones that connect to wires in the wall and they were outside the core casing. I hope I am safe! @ Saurabh - I am sure that was meant as a compliment! As in "you look so wise"... :) @ Krishna – thanks for the tip. Eek, that’s scary.

The radioactivity is completely harmless once you're a few centimeters away and it is probably shielded for the battery compartment. But if you're getting into the innards and disconnecting wires, just be careful that you're not going near the source You should be careful when working around the inside of a smoke detector- depending on the type, there may be a radioactive source (Amerecium)in there.

I removed the battery as soon as I realized it would not stop - did nothing. So, this morning, I actually disconnected a couple of wires and it finally stopped. Now, I need to make sure I get it set up again - by someone who knows more about these things than I do! @ Rathi - Since some lights worked, it wasn't completely dark, but I put batteries in a torch today. Learned my lesson. @ indira – Ah, if it were only that easy. I removed the battery as soon as I realized it would not stop – did nothing.
