Overview
A bedroom hallway or upper floor is where this Kidde alarm goes, a battery photoelectric smoke detector that switches on when it clicks onto its bracket and runs on a built-in lithium battery.
Homeowners and landlords get smoke detection with no battery changes, a test-hush button for cooking steam and a chirp when it is time to replace. It senses smoke only, so carbon monoxide protection needs another alarm.
Who it's for
Bedrooms, hallways and every level of a home suit these battery alarms. Anyone needing CO coverage must add a carbon monoxide detector.
Pros and cons
- No battery changes
- Activates on mounting
- Test-hush for cooking steam
- End of life chirp
- Smoke only, no CO
- Interconnect not described
- Replace whole unit at end of life
Performance notes
Detection relies on the photoelectric sensor, which responds to visible particles from smoldering fires. The lithium battery powers it through power failures and for its full life.
