Regular smoke alarms are dirt cheap. The cheapest models can be bought for about $5. The city I live in actually gives them away for free. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

So why would anybody pay $100 or more for a single smoke detector? Well, because it’s a smart<\/em> smoke detector.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I love connected devices. Heck, I created an entire website dedicated to them. However, I’m not entirely convinced that spending this kind of money is worth it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are low cost alternatives called smart listeners. In addition, there is one smart smoke alarm that’s fairly affordable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
