I wanted a system that was interconnected so if one alarm triggers they all do. Thanks to these detectors and the Ring Security System with Base Station I was able to get what I wanted. Easy to add to the Ring system where I can make sure they are monitoring my house for carbon monoxide and fire. I’m even able to check the battery life and label each device with the room they’re monitoring.

I bought three of these and was able to get them up and running easily. Paired with SmartThings no problem. SmartThings only notes whether alarms are clear or not and battery status. I personally think battery status alone is pretty excellent. Very happy with these.

The main thing that drew me to this was that it said it works with Ring security system. It seems to only work with Ring if you purchase another accessory from them. While I decided not to purchase the extra piece I know First Alert is a great name and believe me you will definitely hear it if it goes off anytime during the day

Bought two of these to connect to our ring alarm. Both work great after a little confusion on how they display in the ring app once set up. Once I connected one device, and it showed two devices in the ring app which was a little weird; “First Alert Fire & CO2” & “First Alert CO2”. I was confused and deleted one of them. It deleted both of them. I tried to re add the device and couldn’t get it to add to my ring app. I tried multiple troubleshooting steps and couldn’t get the detector to connect to my app.I set up the second device and again it added two devices to my ring app. One for Fire and co2 and another device labeled co2. I then renamed one to “Downstairs Fire” and the other to “Downstairs CO2”. I exchanged the first device and renamed the new device(s) to their location and Fire or co2. I have not had either go off so don’t know what happens on the app when one goes off as of yet but both show connected on the ring app.

Have Ring? Get This smoke detector. So easy to set up with Ring. If it detects smoke it has a light for that and Ring Will contact you just in case you are burning food on the stove, but if the CO ever goes off Ring will contact you but they’ll also contact the fire department and you can’t cancel it, but WHY WOULD YOU? CO is colorless orderles and tasteless but it will kill you easily.
Plus the Ring App even lets you know what level the battery percentage is and will warn you if someone tampers with it.
Hopefully I’ll never have to use it, but I am glad it is in the household for my family and myself.

It was easy to set up and stall. The AA batteries Included is a plus. Wireless feature is definitely I liked. I am not that of a handy person. I got 10 of these and was able to install myself. The size was almost same as the old one and fitted without affecting the ceiling paint.
Can recommend this product.

I’ve had these smoke detectors installed for a little over 1 year and connected to be monitored with my Ring alarm system. The batteries needed to be replaced after 1 year, so that was the first thing I wasn’t pleased with.
I am away on vacation with poor cell signal, and found out that there was a smoke alarm about a half hour after it started. At this point the police and fire department had already responded. I did some research and discovered that false alarms with this particular detector are common. I have since disabled the monitoring so I don’t waste anymore precious time from the PD and FD.
The false alarm started and ended in the same minute… the house was unoccupied with everything non-essential turned off… completely ridiculous.
