Hi, which smoke and carbon monoxide detectors are the best to get, which could connect to the hubitat, and which can sync together? Like auch announce location or all go off when one gotta off. I looked into the Google next protect, but they are like $119. I am kind of wanting one which is smart. …

What do you currently have for detectors? If they are not in need of replacement you could just add this device: https://www.amazon.com/Ecolink-Wireless-Detector-existing-FF-ZWAVE5-ECO/dp/B071Z8NM8N In my case, mine were very old and due to be replaced, but they are all hard wired and interconnect…

I don't have any. I used to have the kiddie ones, but they would just go off randomly. So I need to replsve those. I need for 3 bedrooms, hallway, top of the steps to the basement, a room in the basement, and one where the washer and dryer is. I need to put it further away from the furnace. They …

Oh I need battery ones. I don't have any wires

The best smoke detectors to work with Hubitat I have ever found are/were Halos. They went out of business a long time ago now though and I need to replace them as they expire (my last ones will be gone soon). Trying to salvage them for other purposes... I also had a Nest Protect (bought one when the…

I can live with the not interconnected. That would be nice. I know the Google protect do, but for $119 for each, that is a bit heavy on my wallet

I'm using First Alert Z-Wave Smoke & Carbon Monoxide detectors. I use Webcore to turn on all of the lights and send Pushover alerts telling me which device has triggered. I have one that reached EOL recently. It would beep when there was steam coming out of the bathroom. A new replacement seems to h…

Yeah. What bugged me most about the Protect was the "closed garden" aspect to it. It promised all these nice sensors in an easily ignored package that would be easily integrated. But then Google bought them... and access to those sensors was limited. I could not justify it for the price at that poin…

Thank you for all the information. I think I will go with the first alert. They seem to work good

Lack of supported zigbee smoke detectors 🛎️ Get Help

Er, I looked into all of this during a slight remodel a year or two ago. Long story short, couldn't justify the cost of any smart smokes. Instead however (and I think this is a hell of a lot better for a number of reasons), I did get a sparky to install some standard physically interconnected AC smokes (fire angel, from memory). One goes off, they all go off. Bonus points for these guys is that you can happily purchase a mount (just need one, because obviously they're all connected) for a coup…
