>> "bad UI"
What bad UI? They usually have either 1 or 2 buttons. They always have a test button and sometimes have a secondary button to disable the alarm (e.g. if you accidentally trigger it). They're all basically identical and people have been used to them that way for a long time. I'm not saying there isn't a better way to do it (I'm no UI expert) but does this current UI really need improved?
