How do you set them up in ha ? I try the integration in ha but doesn't work

Im thinking of installing a smart smoke detector. Can I mix the wired and wireless Nest detectors? I would prefer the wired version as I have the wires already in place, but I might add a wireless at a later date.

Our old smoke detector decided to start chirping every few minutes at 3 AM. I had to get up and go get our extended ladder out of the garage to pull it down from the vaulted ceiling. I went Office Space on it later that day. Instead of replacing the $2 battery I finally took the plunge and got the $120 Nest detector. Sort of a set it and forget it type of device. It would have been cool if it could be a little smarter and give air quality readings. I know it's job is safety but it's one of my more boring smart devices 😅

yo I've been watching u its been a long time

I have a very high ceiling (11') , Since I hate changing the batteries do they need to be changed every six month or the fact they are plugged in mean the keep working for the lifespan of the detector? (My current one is wired without AA batteries, It still stay alive when power is off so I guess they have some form of battery or capacitor to store some power... but I only have to climb up there once every 10 years)

In the original version, there was a feature that you could wave at to silence the alarm. Unfortunately, I'm not sure why they removed that.

Nest is also avalible on samsung also

I have 4 of those

this hasn't change since it came out years ago, maybe over 10 years now. I have the battery version and will say you don't need the wired version unless you're replacing an existing wired smoke alarm. You could just use the battery version anyway and just tie off the existing wires with wire nuts. The wired version also has a battery in case there is a power outage and will need to be replaced after 10 years just like the battery version.

There is no camera on the unit. It links to separate Google Nest Cameras.

A great thing is that if one rings, all the others will alert you. This should be a mandatory thing fo all detectors, wired or not.

So If you have enough moisture in that room to trick a smoke alarm it indicates you have a woefully insufficient bathroom exhaust fan.

My Nest detector says it's detecting smoke but there isn't any smoke. It won't stop flashing yellow, what can I do?

Great video. Thank you. Is there a small green power light that should be on all the time? I followed your setup and must have done something wrong because ours does not have the small green light illuminated and in the app it’s showing Power is Out. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Trust me, DO NOT buy the Nest Protect Smoke Alarm. I've been through two of them in 3 years, the sensors fail very quickly. The cheap $20 smoke alarms last 15-20 years. Either they really screwed up the QA and engineering of this product, or it is a case of planned obsolescence (which would be shocking with a safety product). This product does not last very long. The promised features are great, but the product itself is very unreliable. Considering it's primary function is to keep you from being asphyxiated in your sleep or burned to death, reliability trumps smart-home connectivity. I wish I had looked at reviews from people who have had them for a few years before buying. Everyone praises them when they do unboxing videos and have just installed it. But there are countless reviewers out there saying exactly what I am after just a year or two. If you want smarthome connectivity, Alexa will text you if it hears a smoke alarm. So a $25 echo dot (on sale), and a $25 smoke detector will give you the same functionality at a fraction of the cost, and will actually work for more than 12-18 months.

Conceptually, these things are amazing. But in reality, huge pain in the ass. In the first year of installation alone, I’ve had to remove and reinstall these several times due to the “cannot verify voice” error. Google it. It’s a very common occurrence. The error has existed since it’s inception and Google has yet to figure out a way to fix it beyond telling you to remove it / restore to factory settings, take it off the ceiling, re-scan it and go through setup all over again. For the price, you should never have to get out a 10ft ladder and go through this nonsense more than once, let alone once a month in some instances! Just wait… I can almost guarantee you that at some point, either next week or next year; you’ll see it glowing yellow and get an error notification in your app. And you’ll remember this comment!
