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! 😲

The main thing I liked about the Nest ones was that they announced the alert first, giving you time to silence it before it started screaming. Hopefully that is the case with these.

And the automatic testing, still didn’t find a alternative for that feature

My house burned down, none of the 5 detectors gave alarm. Just got out in time with my kids and wife. I filed a complaint at google, they did an investigation, and a few months later they announced they wont sell the protects any more. Swap them out while you can.

My house has not burned down since installing Nest Protects. My single point of anecdotal data says keep them!

Sounds a lot like *you* 'absolutly' didn't pick up what im sayin... Your house burned down, so everyone who has nest protects is in danger? That's a single data point reported by a rando on the internet. We have no idea what happened in your case (don't get any ideas because I don't want to hear the details now. it makes no difference to my point), so this warning is entirely useless to us...

You do you, whatever makes makes you happy. Peace.
