This video was helpful to me. Thanks for taking the time to make it.
Great info, I am about to be purchasing so I needed to see how it worked!
Thanks for that video. Great video. I’ll be buying one of these today now that I understand how it works.
Great review and info to set the alarm!
Good video and thank you for putting this up. Did you end up figuring out if there are any options to manage the device from the Ring app? Like acknowledging or silencing and alarm?
Sorry, not clear yet if you still need the CO listener to integrate this into the Ring security system? I don't have a protect plan since I live in Argentina. Thanks
Hi Bryce, thanks for the video, very helpful. I've been trying to install First Alert ZCOMBO alarm with Qolsys IQ Panel 2+ and haven't been successful. Qolsys doesn't seem to recognize it. Any suggestions how to make it work ?
Too helpful!!! Thx ✌️
Chances are, if you can reach up and touch the alarm, by the time smoke activates it, the fire is pretty big already. Always mount your smoke detector on the ceiling.
Since these aren't interconnected, would adding them to ring trigger them all at once or would it be better to add them to a separate hub that will do that?
Very informative. Thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
I got that for Friday
Carbon monoxide is NOT heavier than air. It diffuses uniformly in air. The easiest way to add carbon monoxide detection to an old system is the plug in kind which puts it close to the floor, hence the confusion.
Thanks for the correction! I had always heard that, but turns out it's actually slightly lighter than air. Everything I can find when researching indicates that best placement is still the ceiling or up high on the walls.
if you vape, will the vapor set off the Photoelectric sensors?
i have them but i really wish they were zigbee and hardwired with temp and humidity
What happens when your out of the app and the screen is off? What notification do you get if there is a smoke detection?
With what app is this device installed on the cell phone? please help
I have the same thing for my house, and unfortunately when there was cooking smoke the alarm went off, and even when we got the call from ring they called the fire brigade
Do you need an alarm Listener for this to communicate with the Ring alarm base or is it a stand alone detector to alarm base?
These are stand alone. You pair each one with your Ring base station directly. No listener needed.
Can it be turned off through the ring app once it goes off?
Any updates?
Wwhy you did show how to screw it at the wall. I was only looking for that!
Sorry, on some of our videos we have had feedback that they really just wanted a review of what we thought of the product rather than all the detailed steps of setup or installation. Would be happy to send you a clip separately of the portion you are looking for if still interested.
Will it work like a normal detector without the ring alarm? I bought it already and I’m wondering if I need to return it. Is the ring alarm app free for I phones without a monthly fee? Thanks
Hello. Do you need a fire permit? Ring fire alarm listener requires a fire permit that has an annual fee.
Can these alarms be interconnected? Many states require the alarms to interconnect thus sounding the other alarms once one is set off.
From all of my research it would depend on what they mean by interconnected. These are z wave connected so they connect to a hub not each other, so if they are connected to a hub and one goes off they will all go off, but if the zwave network is offline then from my understanding only the one will go off.
I came here to ask this. It’s been difficult to confirm that if one is triggered, all will go off (if connected to the network). During the test, only the one you pressed the button for goes off.
Does it need ring in order to detect smoke or I can use it without ring?
It's able to work with Ring. It doesn't need Ring to work. You can use it without Ring.
Light a match to see if it really works
these are great other than they start chirping the freaking battery warning at 77-80% battery life. 😑
Do you mean battery warning at 20-23% level? I hate to replace batteries annual basis.
Doesn’t connect to my ring system when I close the tray not sure why
Take the battery tray out then put it back in. That fixed mine for the setup
How to rest this device ?
Take battery out and hold the test button close battery don’t let go with button for 10 sec
The stupid battery drawer won’t open!! How do you get it open without breaking it?!
did a battery come loss and jam it up?
With what application is this device installed on the cell phone?
So no way to connect this alarm to RING unless you also have the $250 Ring Base Station. I have my Ring doorbell and flood cam connected directly to my WiFi. Ring will NOT allow you to connect this device unless you use THEIR proprietary base station / WiFi network....
Thank you!!
you saved me from ordering. thanks
And no way to interconnect them if I understand correctly. No thanks.
Do NOT BUY this product. It eats batteries up quickly. I’m currently looking for a hardwired smoke that works with Ring. Please let me know if you have any info.
At this point you might as well mod the smoke detector and have it plugged into a 3vdc adapter
how about the nest ?
@@MissSofiaRose I have Nest alarm, but it does not integrate with ring. I was looking to purchase this product since it does work with ring, but I have heard of the batteries don’t last too long(it starts to chirp at 80% battery life and reminds you to replace them, which I find absolutely ridiculous). I like the nest, but at 120 a pop(already purxhased 5 ), it can be costly. Also, I have heard they are no longer making them, though selling them still at the stores.
If you’re self managed with Ring, this whole device is pointless if it doesn’t send alerts to your phone via the base station. Boo. 👎🏼
