Smoke alarm won't stop beeping?

We just recently installed a new light fixture in our house, and we had to turn off a breaker to do it... unfortunately, it was the same breaker as the smoke alarms, and now they're all going haywire. I have two Kidde KN-COSM-IB combo smoke/carbon monoxide detectors that are three years old. At first they were just beeping every minute or so, so I tried to reset them by turning the power back off and taking out the batteries for a few minutes, but now they're beeping and saying "low battery." So I replaced all the batteries. Still beeping every 20 seconds telling me the batteries are low. Any idea how to get this to stop? Otherwise I'm going to disconnect them and remove the batteries so my ears stop ringing!
Sorry, I wasn't clear... they kept beeping the entire time the breaker was off, but even now that I've reconnected it it's happening. I've changed the batteries twice with no luck...
We actually went to the store and got a new set of batteries, and after we installed those and reset the breaker, it's been quiet. I guess I was just unlucky with two sets of bad batteries! Regardless, I'm just glad that it's stopped... the light fixture is working without any problems and the smoke/carbon monoxide detectors are testing normal. Thanks everyone for your help!

Answer
Try re-connecting your breaker to turn on the lights and fix the annoying beeping noise, if that fails, unplug and then plug in all of the smoke alarms. And if all of that doesn't work, replace the batteries.

I hope this helped :)
