For price comparison, Costco has two pk version for $45 after discount. I but these for rentals whenever it goes on sale. If you have rentals, you want to use the same smoke and CO alarm so when it breaks, it is just twist on and twist off.
nope, you want an ionizing detector for earliest possible warning
I am surprised First Alert even makes a photoelectric-only sensor
I have their ionizing detectors and they work very well, I never had a false alarm
ehh...
Photoelectric smoke alarms respond much faster (15 to 50 minutes faster) to smoldering fires – fires which move more slowly but produce the most smoke, the element of residential fires most responsible for fatalities – than ionization alarms.
Ionization smoke alarms generally perform slightly faster (30-90 seconds) to fast flame fires – fires with flames which spread quickly – than photoelectric alarms. The NFPA acknowledges that a well-designed photoelectric alarm will usually outperform ionization alarms in all fire situations, regardless of type and material.
