Item Description

Amazon.com Product Description
The AC-powered, hardwired Kidde i12080 ionization smoke alarm is designed to shield you and your household from the dangers of smoke and fire. This smoke alarm's trademarked hush feature allows you to silence nuisance alarms, while an indicator LED and test function let you very easily confirm that the alarm is working. This wire-in smoke detector also has a battery-backup feature (with included 9-volt battery) as well as a safety light that helps illuminate your path to security.

Features
The Kidde i12080 smoke alarm consists of a safety light function that offers 15 minutes of light when the alarm is sounding. It delivers a tamper-resistant feature to deter vandalism or theft and a smart interconnect process that connects with up to 24 Kidde devices--including other smoke alarms plus carbon monoxide and heat alarms. The battery-backup feature (9-volt battery included) supplies protection even throughout power outages, when lots of CO incidences happen. It has a massive mounting base that helps protect surface paint from dirt and covers imperfections, and its pre-stripped wiring harness has an painless-off cap and tinned strands to increase conductivity.
By pressing the hush button, you can conveniently and safely silence nuisance alarms triggered by non-emergency conditions, such as overcooked dinners. This feature desensitizes the alarm for around seven minutes. For the duration of this time, the alarm chirps each 30 to 40 seconds. If the smoke is too dense, the hush function is overridden and the alarm still sounds, and the alarm automatically resets at the end of the seven minutes. This hassle-free security measure eliminates the temptation to eliminate the alarm's battery, which creates an unsafe situation.
The Kidde i12080 smoke alarm makes use of ionization sensing technology, which generally detects invisible fire particles (linked with flaming fires) sooner than photoelectric alarms. Photoelectric sensing alarms may well detect visible particles (connected with smoldering fires) sooner than ionization alarms. Kidde recommends that both ionization and photoelectric smoke alarms be installed to insure maximum detection.

Customer Reviews

this works great. we replaced all of our old units because they kept going off because they would get a spider in them (NOT FUN). We have not had any problems with these at all.

Easy to install and I like the light feature. Although in a real fire I'm not sure how useful this will be if the smoke is dense enough. It's nice and doesn't cost much more vs without the light. Battery backup is a must and this comes with 2. One for the light and one for the detector. Great price and deal with Amazon.
