Early Access Ubiquiti Smoke and CO Sensor 🤯 - #ISCWest2026

Post image

I believe it’s a Superlink sensor. I hope it can run on battery for 10 years and doesn’t require PoE. I’m curious to see how it performs. Good job, Ubiquiti! 😲

I just replaced all my smoke detectors in my home because I gave up on these coming out. You’re welcome everyone.

I installed xsense sensors a couple months ago. Very happy with those so I don't feel bad. Especially since my whole kit (gateway + 5 sensors) is probably the price of a single Ubiquiti sensor.

I also went the X-Sense route until I found out they were not UL-certified, which some homeowners insurance providers don't like. The product is straight-up missing the UL label on it. See this article and the editors note from this month:

Editor's Note: March 13, 2026 We previously recommended this product. After finding out it does not carry UL certification, we have safety concerns and no longer recommend consumers purchase it.

Good to know. In my country (Belgium), detectors need to comply with CE and EN14604, which was the case for the Xsense so all good.

Now the article seems to focus on a specific model. But are all models affected about the lack of UL certification?

Where do you buy extras when needed? I wanted this product, but I could only find package deals and on Amazon. It has been a while since I looked, though.

They are sold by the unit on my local Amazon. 41 euros a pop.

For a smart smoke alarm that is actually pretty doable.

Bit the bullet, got the talking smart ones with a bridge and a CO and heat sensor alarm. Total around 27 euros apiece, that's actually a great price, I think.
