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.

Depending on where you live, having interconnected smoke detectors may not just be a "feature" but a requirement. I was running my wireless smokes against code technically to get the Z-Wave functionality. I decided it wasn't worth it the 2nd time around.

it's also SUPER LOUD during set up and scares my daughter into thinking there's a fire in the house when I'm just resetting it after replacing the batteries (current code is we have to have a smoke detector just inside/outside every bedroom door.)
These are junk and VERY prone to false alarms with ZERO smoke/dust/steam.
If you have ring, use their listener instead.

The only complaints I have is the battery level register with smartthings doesn't really work. I decided replace the batteries every 6 months all at once. When changing the battery the beep is pretty loud. I wear earplugs now when doing it after I almost fell off a chair, lol.
Buying a 5th now. I do wish they made a hardwired/battery one, but oh well. I have a few hard-wired general smoke detectors in common areas that I left up, and replaced all the other ones (mostly bedrooms) with these.

If you are looking for good prices shop directly and buy from KIDDE. You can find 25% coupon codes pretty easy online. I think the ones I just purchased were about 65% then Amazon's prices.
And I do purchase my batteries from Amazon (lithium Ion non declarable... don't know how long they last but I am hoping to get over 5 years).

As I stated previously, this is the route I ended up going after giving up on First Alert to bring a product to market for the second time. That's not the point. Many people have been asking for this product for numerous years now. This goes back to long before I bought these crappy wireless versions as a bridge after giving up hope the first time that they would bring to market what it was that I actually wanted. This makes twice now that I've given up on them to deliver on what they could produce if they had any idea what it was people actually wanted. They have all of the parts on-hand so... it's not like we're asking them for cold fusion here. For years now, every one of these posts for wireless Z-Wave detectors always has people posting about interconnected options. Always. That's just the people who haven't yet given up hope that don't even click on these threads anymore let alone comment as such. I know that, for future such threads, I certainly won't waste my time anymore. This "deal" thread just caught me on a rare occasion that I had the time and wanted to express my frustrations. It's nothing more than that so no need to turn it into anything more than what it is.
