Pros & Cons
Pros
These wireless interconnected smoke detectors are amazing! I’m going through all the detectors in the house, adding a couple and insuring if any 1 alerts then all alert and send notifications to my phone. The manufacturer sticker indicates they were m... Read More
I'm not sure exactly when linked smoke alarms became commonplace, but being able to know any alarm is going off (from all alarms) is a must-have feature. The alarm is loud, as you'd expect, and you're not going to sleep through it. You should be all s... Read More
Voice is valuable because it announces whether alarm is for fire or co. The speaking room selection is a little tricky to figure out but once you get it the others are a snap. The voice commands are cool, and each room/hallway has its own location.

Cons
Both alarms are defective and need to be replaced. Not looking forward to changing all the brackets on the ceiling with new holes again. Quick installation instructions are ambiguous. Great design, guys - not.

This time i gently pulled it apart and blew compressed air through it put it back together again and replaced the batteries

Dislike nonethis is a priceless item that can save lives
Packaging/appearance
The alarms were indeed brand new in original packaging so they were a very good deal
Competitiveness
The bracket has multiple screw holes aligned with a different brand older alarm holes so no drilling was needed
