Yes.
>>>How do I test?

Set the power switch to battery test.  The light and chirp should both
extinguish in approximately 30 seconds IF the circuit has been upgraded to a
4T circuit.  If it continues to chirp and illuminate, it's an old 4 circuit.
Just a little more carnivorous of batteries if it's the old circuit.


>>>Is this a good price?

I would say it's a good price if it's an old circuit, even better if it's an
updated circuit.

Buy it.

Jim
