...but they really must tell guests with beeping weak battery smoke alarms to take the flipping battery out of the unit on a commercial brea, yes, @Michelle and @KRowland? Last night's beeping got our dog who hates that sound and panics up and anxious, and I spent 15 minutes trying desperately to figure out which of the many smoke alarms in this rented house was beeping. Got the ladder out, got the battery, tried to calm the dog... till I muted MITD to listen better and realized a few minutes later that the beeping had stopped. Then saw comments from @TacoBell and @Bobs Your Uncle commenting on it. Sounds funny, was not.
Barring further incidents like that, yes I think Dave will continue to do well and get even better, a good thing! 
I'm so sorry you experienced this. Cool, three posts in and I'm already empathetically annoyed with
(not at) you.
Here's a story though, I grew up in a 5 story split level house, and moved back after college with my little Senegal parrot, Little Judas Iscariot. A smoke alarm started beeping like that you just described, and it would take me forever (sometimes days depending on free time available) to find it, and of course if one goes out they all start to go one by one.... but a few weeks went by and i kept hearing it. It was maddening trying to find the remaining smoke detector. I was on the edge of sanity trying to stop the persistent beeping...
Parrot picked up the noise. The parrot was permanently a smoke alarm. Sounded EXACTLY like one. Did that goofy beeping until his last days. Now the sound is bittersweet, a nice reminder of a goofy friend i lost, that liked to beep.
