How many times have you burnt food that you were cooking and had the smoke alarm start incessantly beeping? Well for those of you who aren’t very good at cooking, there’s a smoke detector that eliminates annoying false alarms. In my opinion, NEST Smoke + CO Alarms are one of the neatest products in the fire and life safety industry.  It makes smoke alarm and co detectors more like a modern piece of technology. It also eliminates the dangers of people ignoring alarms, removing batteries, and tampering with smoke and co detectors.

This device seems like something straight out of a science fiction movie.  When the detector senses a faint hint of smoke from what you burned, it speaks to you in a human voice. It tells you that smoke levels are rising and the location.  Then if it’s a false alarm you can silence the device and smile because there’s no annoying beeping. You’ll also receive a message on your smartphone about the problem so you’ll always know what’s going on even if you’re not home.

But it’s more than just a cool piece of technology. Many fire related fatalities and damages are associated with homes lacking smoke alarms. One of the most common reasons why people don’t know about a fire is because the smoke alarm produces frequent false alarms so they remove it. Since this device eliminates annoying beeping false alarms it could potentially eliminate people tampering with them. This could ultimately reduce the number of fire related fatalities and damages.

This device was such a great idea, eliminate annoying false alarms, send alerts to smartphones, and you’ll get people to pay attention to smoke and carbon monoxide detector’s alarms. Finally, there’s a smoke and co detector up to date with modern times.
