Overview

A photoelectric smoke sensor and a carbon monoxide sensor share one housing in this Kidde combination alarm, powered by a sealed lithium battery. When either trips, a voice names the hazard so you know whether to get out or ventilate.

Spoken alerts remove the guesswork between a smoke alarm and a CO alarm in the middle of the night. The listing does not mention interconnection, so each unit sounds on its own.

Who it's for

Apartments, bedrooms and rentals without alarm wiring get two protections from one unit. Larger homes that want every alarm to sound together need an interconnected system.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Two sensors in one alarm
  • Voice names the hazard
  • No battery changes
  • No wiring to install
Cons
  • Interconnection not mentioned
  • Certifications not listed
  • Whole unit replaced at battery end

Performance notes

Photoelectric sensing responds well to smoke from smoldering fires, while the CO sensor tracks gas that has no smoke at all. The sealed battery removes chirping replacements, but the alarm is retired when the battery reaches end of life.
