Our verdict

A three-pack of interconnecting hardwired smoke alarms with battery backup and a latching indicator. They sense smoke only and need a hardwired circuit.

Overview

A homeowner or landlord replacing hardwired alarms gets three First Alert photoelectric units that link together so one alarm sets off the rest. A latching light shows which unit started it.

Households and multi-unit buildings get interconnected smoke detection with battery backup and tamper resistance. They sense smoke only, and the backup batteries need replacing over the alarm life.

Who it's for

Homes, rentals and dorms with existing hardwired alarm wiring suit this three-pack. Rooms needing carbon monoxide detection need a separate CO alarm.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Three alarms in one pack
  • Interconnects with First Alert and BRK alarms
  • Latching indicator finds the source
  • Tamper-resistant battery drawer
Cons
  • Smoke only, no CO sensing
  • Needs hardwired circuit
  • Backup battery needs replacing

Performance notes

Detection relies on the photoelectric sensor, which is effective at slow smoldering fires. When one unit triggers, the interconnect sounds every linked alarm, and the latching indicator marks the one that started it.
