Old smoke detectors (Gracemount EH16)
Not for keeping people safe, for trees, so don't worry about the condition! We can fix them up, and they don't have to be 100% reliable. We have a 'kids burning things' problem at our community garden, and are rigging up a smoke detector system so we get alerts when there's a fire. All old smoke detectors will be loved and appreciated by us :)
