The most common types of smoke detectors are those that are equipped with either a ionization sensor or with a photoelectric sensor or, of course, both. The first type of sensor is very sensitive to smaller particles, so, they’re very good at detecting fast burning flames, but, unfortunately, are also prone at giving false positives for example, while cooking. The second type of sensors relies on detecting larger particles specific to slow burning, smouldering fires – such as a cigarette left on the sofa by using a light source inside a chamber which points away from the sensor, but will deviate its course towards it at the moment smoke enters this chamber. The First Alert Onelink Safe and Sound uses a photoelectric sensor for detecting smouldering fires and an electrochemical sensor for detecting CO emissions so it uses minimal power to accurately detect any change in the concentration of CO from the atmosphere. In case the sensors detect rising levels of smoke or CO, the LED light will flash a red colour and you’ll hear a voice telling you the location of the detector in case you have more than one devices inter connected. The alerts can be silenced by pushing the Test/Silence button for a minimum of 3 5 seconds or using the app, but be aware that this is only temporary and you will need to identify and fix the problem until the alarm will sound again you get 15 minutes in case the sensor detects smoke and 4 minutes when the sensor detects high levels of CO. The Onelink Safe and Sound smoke/CO alarm can interconnect with other Onelink alarms, so, in case there’s a fire in the kitchen, all the devices will sound the alarm and will tell you the room where the emergency originates. Furthermore, OneLink Safe and Sound works well with the Apple HomeKit home automation hub compatible with the Apple Home app and it has embedded Amazon Alexa Voice Services I’ve got to admit that one of the reasons why this device caught my attention is the integration with Alexa, especially after seeing it working with Linksys Velop and Netgear Orbi. The Onelink Safe and Sound smoke detector also comes with a mobile app which allows you to choose the location of the device, interact with Siri, see the status of the sensors, adjust the NighLight, mute/unmute the microphone, play music and more. Furthermore, you will also receive notifications for any changes which occur in your house even if you’re not at home. Note: Inside the package, you can find the Onelink Safe and Sound smoke / CO alarm, a mounting bracket and additional hardware, as well as a User Manual and a Quick Start Guide the product comes with a 3 year limited warranty.

When I contacted Alarm Pro they told me it would be close to $500 to upgrade my system to cellular no phone line needed and that the could not offer any of the awesome features my Vivint system has. On Monday night I encountered yet another RUDE Vivint Home Security Solicitor yesterday at myhome in Palm Coast . Working 3 jobs and breaking my back for almost a year I finally own my dream home and I have a ADT sign in my yard. It was wired by a professional company for a security system and then ADT gave me the state of the art system to keep my home safe. Every thing your rep said to me was a lie, and when I didn’t listen and said no thank you he kept yelling at me and my door saying he will be back. I told him NO and I then decided to stay home because my wife did not feel safe and I didn’t feel like calling the Cops. PX, which rebranded itself as Vivint in 2011, had received an “F” rating from the Utah Better Business Bureau, and the national organization had logged hundreds of complaints about the company. It had been the subject of government action in at least seven states the total is now at least 11 for alleged sins that ranged from deceptive sales practices to operating without a license. Disgruntled people, often seniors, were pressured to buy the company’s alarm system and then forced to pay much higher costs than they had expected, according to their complaints to police, state investigators, and local reporters. Vivint has never admitted wrongdoing and did not return many calls for comment over two months. It’s obvious that this is a paid commentor, and I’m not surprised that Vivint would attempt to whitewash their horrible reputation in such a manner.
