We've been telling them for years now that we want a smoke detector that's hardwired with a battery backup & Z-Wave. Apparently it's an impossibility at this point or something.
You can have a Z-Wave smoke detector as long as it's battery powered or you can have a hard wired smoke detector that doesn't have Z-Wave but you couldn't possibly fathom having both in one unit.
And for that reason, I'm out.

I previously bought the Costco 3pk but would like to add one more.

Like @Shawncey said, the Z wave 3 pack often goes on sale (online only though) for $79.00 which per unit is the best price around.
I have the 1st gen and 2nd gen all bought through Costco. The second gen has the easier set up to Ring due to the QR code on the back of each unit.
But if you don't have Costco or can't wait or don't need 3, then this isn't a ridiculous price. Just $5 more per alarm.

Works with all Z-wave hubs like Amazon Ring and Samsung Smartthings.
Lowest price according to CCC. From the reviews, 2 AA batteries last about a year.

I ended up taking a weekend to wire everything up just because it was such a pita.

I think they are great, I use lithium batteries and they are still going strong.
Only downside, they don't alarm together, if one goes off, the others do not alarm with it.

I like these z-wave ones though because they will alert your smartphone if one goes off. Much more practical for people that always have their phones with them (99% of people lol), or are out of the house, etc.
