Deal Details
Google is no longer selling the Nest Protect and the official alternative are these First Alert SC5 Smoke and Carbon Monoxide detectors. Elsewhere these sell for $129.99 each, Costco has them on sale as a pair (2x) for $159.99.
Both the Nest Protect and these First Alert SC5's expire after 10-years, I have several due to be replaced so I swapped out 2 back in October and they can use the same mounts left behind by the Nest Protects (at least the battery version).
They do not appear in the Nest Protect app, but they do show up in the Google Home app where Nest Protects also appear, and they also support the Wireless Interconnect which allows them all (Nest Protect & SC5) to unify and announce where an alarm may be going off.
If you use HomeBridge with Apple to connect into Nest Protect, these currently do not appear to have that type of support. The current HomeBridge for Google Home also do not appear to support the SC5's.
Also, these SC5's use a different battery type and do not offer the pathway lighting.

we are insanely light sleepers though and need the ability to turn off lights or at least cover it up somehow if possible - can i do this with these or the kiddie?

I'm still salty with Google for dropping the Nest Protect. They're famous for dropping hardware- makes me not want to invest in their ecosystem anymore.
They stopped making them earlier this year but the ones they made up until that point have 10 year expiry so 2035. The best i could find at the time was November 2033. The expiry is printed on the unit. The serial number can also be derived to determine expiry (upload ebay picture of serial number into grok or gemini for example and ask for expiry). Do not buy any unit new or old without confirmation of expiry date.
