FIRST ALERT 10YR ION SMK ARLM ROUND

This smoke sensor was so easy to setup I laughed. If you can use the same screw anchors as your old sensor, this install will take about five minutes. Easy to read instructions, and best of all, no need to remember to change your battery every six to twelve months because these products have a “10 year” battery life! And the cost is relatively inexpensive. Best of all, the sensor will pay for itself the first two years you use it because of not having to pay for all those darn batteries!I highly recommend this product because of ease of installation and setup, cost savings and for keeping you from having to climb a ladder every 6 months. These are great for seniors too!

Hopefully it lives up to the long battery life listed but will be great not having to worry about the batteries running out so frequently.Installation was a breeze as you don't need to even plug them in, being fully battery operated. You can just put them anywhere with a few simple screws (included with drywall anchors).The ones I installed chirped just fine when holding the test button. There is a small red LED that flashes every several seconds though. I suppose this is to let you know it's doing its thing. It's actually a little brighter than expected.Hopefully It never gets used but great having a well known company behind the units. They are shipped in plain builders boxes for those that reviewed them being fakes. The units themselves are exactly what was expected and pictured, from First Alert. Maybe it would be helpful on the page to have this better pointed out to not catch people off guard.Overall great product for great price. Some of those fancy ones are nice but just so expensive, and then issues with the app's over the years are no fun. Some things are just better simple.

I liked the fact this was a replacement unit and its start date was very current. These units are only good for 10 years and my last one lasted that long. It was easy to install and from previous experience feel that this one will last the life of the unit. It fits over the old base without any problems.

We bought the 2 pack for our trailer so we had one in the main area and one in the back room. Buying from the box stores was selling one for more money than the two I purchased. We’ve tested it with burning toast and it works well and most importantly is easy to silence by simply pushing a button which is a nice feature! Easy to install and 10 years before I have to change the battery.
