  • Great alarm at a generic price!
It took me a long time to decide which smoke detectors to buy for my house, this model or the brand made by Kiddie. My house already had the Kiddie brand and this would mean a much faster replacement for all the smoke detectors in my house. Over time the Kiddie brand tended to chirp a lot and that drove everyone in the house crazy, especially my older and wonderful dog. My daughter said a candle lit in her room also set off all the smoke detectors in our house. If you go to the store you will find these labeled "BRK" with the words "First Alert" in smaller letters underneath and they come in a yellow and black box. It is unfortunate. Yellow and black packaging reminds me of generic food items back in the 70's and these items had a reputation for being below par. If I did not know what I was looking for I would have passed over these units in favor of something else, and I also noticed that BRK and First Alert puts their more expensive models in fancy and beautiful packaging. Thus, I fear that this company intentionally brands this "entry level" smoke detector in yellow and black to dissuade people from buying it and moving up to the more expensive models. I bought the contractor pack of this item as well as three single units to replace the nine smoke detectors in my house. All of these come with a free battery. I knew I would have to take down the old detectors, take down the mounts, and disconnect the old wiring in order that I be able to put in the new mounts and the new wiring for this smoke detector. It is a job that takes about 10 minutes at the most to completely swap out each of the units. Remember to shut off the circuit breaker! The alarm itself looks great. I like the design a lot better than the flat plastic orb. Once the new wiring harness is connected and the mount is secured to the ceiling, the new detectors snap easily into place for the wiring and you twist it onto the mount. The battery compartment is on the side and although the door for the battery looks cheap, all held up well and none broke. The alarm itself is easy to test, push the big button, and the alarm is loud enough to get anyone's attention. So far, cross our fingers, there have been no errant cheeps and no false alarms. Now to give Kiddie credit our old alarms were nearing the end of their expected lifespan so the new ones would have probably worked as well. I admit it, I went for the name brand! ... show more

  • Excellent Replacement for Old Smoke Detectors
I researched various brands of smoke detectors and decided based on reviews and other factors (UL ratings) that the First Alert / BRK brand was the best and most reliable. I also read about ionization vs photoelectric sensors, and that many different websites recommend having a smoke detector that has both types of sensors installed in a single unit to alert to both types of common house fires (smoldering vs rapid flame combustion). I found the First Alert model smoke detector with both ionization and photoelectric sensors would not work in my application, as the combination sensor smoke detector is battery powered only. The smoke detector configuration in my home is hard wired. So I decided to purchase the First Alert Model SMI 100-AC, which has the ionization type sensor only, and is equipped to be hard wired and has 9 volt battery backup. The smoke detectors I was replacing were USI brand and the old pigtail was not compatible with the First Alert brand. So all 7 of my smoke detectors needed the new hire wire pigtail installed that comes with the First Alert detector. I found this job to be very easy and instructions for installation were very straightforward. Took me a total of about 2.5 hours to rewire all pigtails and install all 7 new detectors. I tested each new detector individually as each was installed, and then again as an interconnected series across the complete circuit. All worked perfectly and all are showing solid green LED, which indicates they are all receiving AC power and alarm and battery backup are working and active. The green LED light is very subtle and does not cast any light at all in a dark room that would be considered bothersome or glaring. Very happy with my choice and I highly recommend to anyone needing to install new smoke detectors or replace old ones that have reached end of life like mine. ... show more

  • Big improvement over old one!

  • Smoke Detector replaced easy
I bought this as a replacement for one that was at end of life (Lasted 8 years). Easy to install and works great! I did not notice it was not carbon monoxide detector also. So make sure you check that if you want to monitor both smoke and Carbon Monoxide. Other then that, it fits on the same bracket as my old model SC9120B that is obsolete. Uses the same 120vac connector as the old. Interconnects with the my other 4 original monitors that still work. So if you have one that is NG, (my old one, chirped 3 times every 5 minutes or so even after cleaning and replacing battery) you can just replace that one and be OK. ... show more

  • Valid First Alert Replacement
This aftermarket replacement for my 10 yo "First Alert" smoke alarm used the same mounting bracket and electrical connector/plug as the original. Made for confidence in the replacement, which was quite easily performed.
