The Kidde RF-SM-DC (Est. $35) is a top choice in this category. In the last week I have had three annoying and ear piercing false alarms, meaning no smoke or other elements setting it off. Newer kidde hard wired alarms have alarm memory and a red led will remain lit on the triggering unit. The Firex is easy to install and can be interconnected with other alarms to create a full-house smoke detection system.
Do not install within 3’ ( m) of the following: Install alarms at least 12” (3 cm) away from fluorescent lights. As electronic noise may cause nuisance alarms. Remove dust protection strip after ALL construction is complete.
For more than years industry leaders, the military, airlines and firefighters have relied on Kidde products.
