Kidde PI2010

I had to do the old hunt for the detector which is has a dead battery yet again. Its annoying that there is no real way to tell other than the old walk around and wait, then walk some more and wait, to figure out which of the nine detectors in my house is low. Now admittedly, I bring this on myself ...

This was the second replacement of this unit since we moved into our house some years ago. We would replace these with something else, but these are part of connected system so that if one goes off, so do the others. and they meet code requirements for both kinds of smoke conditions. I can't complai...

I like the dual smoke detection a lot. What I don't like is the battery placement. A previous Kidde single detection SA unit had an external door that when pressed would pop-open, and the 9v battery would easily slide out/in. This was great for vaulted ceiling requiring a tall ladder to reach; now b...

I have had this hard wired smoke alarm for over 10 years. Consumer Reports rates it really high, but it has a history of false alarms. Recently I upgraded all 8 of my alarms, and already had 1 failure. An alarm that couldn’t be stopped. Fortunately, I purchased a back up alarm in 2020 and replaced t...

Okay until they stop working. As other reviewers have said, once they fail, they fail spectacularly. I chose these due to the dual sensor feature and they looked pretty good, too. I've replaced three of them due to incessant false alarms. Once they get into this false alarm habit, they don't seem to...

As a fire inspector I ordered 3 of the dual smoke detectors for my basement. Smoke alarms have an expiration of 10 years. The smoke alarms I received were 7 months old. I went to Home Depot & Lowes and their smoke alarms on the shelf were 1 and 2 months old. I'm guessing that's why they were a littl...

I purchased 6 of these units to replace older ones that had reached the replacement date. The info online was not clear about connecting these to the existing hardwire network. Additional adapters had to be purchased. This most recent purchase is to replace a unit that malfunctioned after only a yea...

I purchased three of these two years ago. Purchased the product to simply replace what I had as an original product. It makes for easy insulation. BEWARE of their 10 warranty. They will make good on the warranty, but you must pay the postage to get it to them and must prepay the postage to get it ba...

Had this since 2017. Fortunately haven't had fires to trigger it, but it had trigger for no reason, at least 4 to 6 times in a year. It has a nice look but I wouldn't buy it again.

I like the Kidde Dual Sensor Smoke Alarm as it is not hardwired.

We have hardwired smoke alarms installed by the contractor and until we found the batteries that last 10 years we were constantly being awakened or startled by the loud chirping noise that goes off for no reason.

We have extremely ...
