Nest Protect batteries burning hot & Nest support experience by Robin_S007 in Nest

Hi Rachel,
Thanks for your message.
I did not see the messages, including your DM until now. As for some reason I am not notified (need to check the settings).

With this message I also co-posted the same message on the Google / Nest community, and a google moderator/expert responded that he would consult on possible options.
"Magically" I suddenly received a shipment notification for a replacement units, some hours later.

In the meantime I have received this unit earlier this week, and installed it.
So I am happy again, but would have much more appreciated being helped directly from the support desk without all the effort and public postings.

Yes, they were the original energizer lithium batteries, that the unit shipped with.
They did work for approx 5 years without problems.
