I own a flat which I have rented out, and installed smoke and carbon monoxide alarms in it, but we are now renting an apartment in Switzerland, and am ashamed to say that we don't have a smoke alarm here. Probably because we are only planning to stay here for a total of 2 years....No excuse!

Yes, everyone should have at least 2 - 1 in the kitchen and 1 in the hall. The kitchen as it's the most likely source of fire, and the hall as it's your means of escape from the property.
If you can afford it, install mains powered alarms, and a heat detector instead of a smoke detector in the kitchen - heat detectors detect sudden/extreme rises temperature instead of smoke and it puts a stop to nuisance alarms from burnt toast.

Have Angel Alarms. Plug into the light fittings so they don't need batteries as the light charges them up.
One downstairs, outside the kitchen. One at the top of the stairs.

No. They were installed when I moved in, but I can't find them now. I took them out to paint, and never put them back, and I'm sure it's illegal not to have them installed. I am ashamed I don't. I see the tragedies that happen as a result, and I still haven't even tried to look for them. Is this a values statement? I think so, but I'll disagree. I am for real.

Got one in the hallway and one upstairs that run from the mains.To those who have not got any the battery ones are cheap enough to buy so no excuse there not to have one.It may save your life one day and all for about £20 for two at the most.

Yes, we have smoke detectors and they're mains rather than battery so we don't have to deal with that insane beeping at 4am (why do they only need changing in the middle of the night??)
I hope Crispy above doesn't end up aptly named.

Yes I have mains powered ones. It's not worth the risk to go without.
