We ended up getting USI Electric USI-5204 smoke detectors. I believe Mr. Swanie got a 6-pack of them at Home Depot. We haven't had a single problem with them since he changed them out on Christmas Eve.
The USI model that we have has a few nice features like a side slidding drawer for the battery so you don't have to pull the smoke detector off of the ceiling to change the battery. It also has a silencer button too.
