DON'T EVER DO THIS, Smoke detectors save lives.

You can hear the smoke detector through earbuds - like sirens etc outlined in the OP's post

I live in a newly renovated house, our smoke alarms also flash and I can hear them just fine even with 33db earplugs in.

I thinks good sleep hygiene is much more important than a small chance of not hearing smoke detector. Especially for me, since there isn't a single smoke detector in the building I live in.

Are you crazy?
Don't buy earplugs then, go buy smoke/CO detectors. Right now.

Why would I need CO detector? There is no device in my whole building that generates CO. Also there is such a little chance of a fire happening spontaneously in my apartment that what is even the point of smoke detector? To beep at me when I grill steak?

Godspeed, friend.
Edit: Actually, I'm curious about your intransigence. You described where you lived as "the building". Is it a single family residence? Or an apartment building? How is it heated? Does it have an attached garage? Does it get cold where you are? Are you the only person in the building?
Edit2: I was being hyperbolic when I asked if you were crazy. Apologies. No offense intended.

Thanks. Not everybody lives in a type of building you do, so not everybody needs the same things you need.

Every building needs smoke detectors and CO2 detectors.

What for? I'm especially curious about CO2 (I assume you mean CO?) detector. Where would CO come from in a building that has nothing that works using flames?

Here's a better question do you like being alive? Get a CO2 detector then idiot.

And what does this CO2 detector do exactly? It beeps when I breathe out or what?
