Zusammenfassung:A long life, surface mountable ambient condition detector includes a non-replaceable battery for the purpose of providing power to the detector. The detector includes an activation switch mechanism having a one-time, or single use turn-on characteristic. The activation switch mechanism switches the battery once from a non-conducting state to a state of electrical conduction with a control unit of the detector. The switch mechanism may include a frangible member for switching the battery from the non-conducting state to the electrical conducting state. Until the detector has been energized, the frangible member blocks mounting of the detector on the surface.
