Claim:
1. A luer-lock connector adaptor for fluid transfer comprising a luer-lock connector section, a slip connector subassembly, and an elastic member, said luer-lock connector section comprising a first luer-lock connector, a locking nut and a switching plate, said slip connector subassembly comprising a second luer-lock connector and a stop feature with an integrated alarm, said alarm comprising an alarm module and a battery, said alarm module comprising an LED indicator with two external connector leads, one positive and one negative, said battery providing electric voltage and power to drive said alarm module, said alarm module and battery positioned with one of positive or negative lead of said alarm module in electrical connection with corresponding terminal of said battery and the other of said positive or negative lead of said alarm module adjacent to other corresponding terminal of said battery but not in electrical connection with it when there is no tensile force applied to said luer-lock connector adaptor, said elastic member connecting said luer-lock connector section and said slip luer-lock connector subassembly to allow fluid transfer between the two in a leak-proof manner, and said elastic member extending when an external tensile force is applied to said luer-lock connector adaptor, thereby moving said switching plate and said other lead of said alarm module towards said battery such that it makes electrical connection with said other corresponding terminal of said battery.
