Sleek, high quality and works exactly as advertised
Working Good
Great solution and works with Apple HomeKit! Easy setup for whole house safety.
Fast shipping, good quality. Very easy setup with the phone app. Also like the fact that you can test it via the app.
The detector worked as expected. The setup did take two tries but was fairly straight forward. All texting on the device and on the phone worked as expected. I have the wired and non wired version in my house and they work together. Also have them integrated with
Excellent product. Questions I had were readily answered by the Service Tech when I called with questions.
We really like the product!
My husband and I were able to install two alarms in less than a half hour. We used the iPhone app to install and connect our alarms. Can hardly believe how simple it was!
First Alert product works well.
Once I downloaded the app, installation was really simple to do. I really like it that now I know if there is a fire or CO issue on my phone while I am away at work. I bought 3 of these for my two bedrooms and living room area and all go off at the same time which is a great feature.

The LED lights on the Onelink alarm not only provide a nice glow to light up your route, but they also indicate that the alarm is receiving AC power. You can adjust the brightness level of the nightlight through the Onelink app. When you disable the nighlight two LEDs will glow green on the Onelink alarm letting you know that you have AC power. If the LED is turned off, it indicates your alarm is running off of battery backup.
The color red has been reserved for smoke and carbon monoxide emergencies as well as Alexa privacy mode.

Alexa voice services are not supported, so you can't talk to Alexa with this unit. However, if you have an Echo or similar Alexa-enabled device, you can use Onelink Alexa skills to check in on your detector. The nightlight on the hardwired alarm can also be controlled with Alexa.
Sometimes, alarms may beep or "chirp" to let you know that something isn't right. A chirp is quieter and more intermittent than a regular alarm. Chirping is typically caused by improper mounting, a low battery, or alarm end-of-life.
