Ring Alarm Smoke & CO Listener | Mobile App Notifications for Existing Smoke/CO Detectors | Base Station Required

While we live in a fairly new home, exercise caution when it comes to things that could ignite a fire, have an emergency evacuation plan, fire extinguishers close by, fire blankets, etc. The famous saying “stuff” happens. Our interconnected smoke detectors can sound all the want when no one is home and they won’t cause the fire department to respond unless someone calls 911. When installing the Ring Alarm, we felt better knowing a signal would transmit to the monitoring center (with our subscription) if someone broke in, but frankly we are insured. I could care less about our things, don’t hurt my dogs and you are welcome to clear every last valuable. Then I got to thinking “what if a fire broke out”, how could we give our girls the best fighting chance when no one is home!?! I added these babies as well as a First Alert Z-Wave Smoke and CO detector to our Ring system. First and foremost, there is no missing an alarm activation, we’ve got 8 smoke detectors sounding at the same time, plus it triggers the Ring Alarm sirens (both the base station and the additional interior sirens we added) and Helen Keller herself couldn’t miss it. Then you also get an instant push notification and/or text to your phone before the alarm company calls. If I were out, I’d let Ring call the fire department, I’d be calling my neighbors to go smash the sliding door and get my girls out, because at the end of the day, everything else is just stuff.Aside from my dogs added safety, this removes a step from my hands in the event of a fire so my focus can be evacuation. Ring is calling the fire department for me, so I can focus on getting myself, my spouse, and my dogs outside safely.How do I know these “listeners” work, simple… I’ve had a false alarm due to a cooking mishap. Ring was very quick to get the ball rolling. Because I canceled the alarm within a few seconds of its activation, the dispatcher called before contacting the fire department, and at my request took no further action. It’s quite nice to know that someone is always there to back me up should I need it. These little guys work, and do their job well.

Works so good so far

Great addition to our Ring system

Works great. Once you get hooked app, it's a bit of a bitch to figure out how far it's gotta be and getting up sweet spot. But other than that works great, I mean, it works well, and does what it's supposed to

Hello everyone I just wanted to come to talk about and review Ring Smoke and CO2 Leisner I love this thing it was so easy to set this up and only took me a few minutes I love how this device gives me peace of mind knowing that if there is smoke or co2 and the smoke or co2 alarm goes off that it will sound my ring alarm and give me a notification when it is going off and then ring monitoring station would dispatch the fire department to my house I love knowing that I know that my dog will be safe if there is a fire or co2 Highly recommend this product !!!

I had trouble getting this to work with my smoke detectors so I bought newer digital ones.Still couldn’t get them to sink.Ring contacted me after seeing my review and made an appointment to work with me to get them connected.The smoke/CO alarms I bought doesn’t have a separate smoke chirp so they are set to the only chirp we could set up which is the CO but should work regardless of rather it’s smoke or CO.While setting up the alarm it went off 3 times. Make a note to change settings/people-animals to self monitor cause if it goes to ring they’re automatically going to send out the fire department cause it’s a smoke detector/carbon monoxide alarm.The fire department was very nice when they showed up.But hey, I know they work 😂😂😂😂Koodo’s to ring for going the extra mile when they see a bad review.

This thing says in the ad when I bought it and still says it today, that it does not detect anything. It does not detect fire, smoke, or CO. Therefore, all it does is listens to your in home detectors and has no way of knowing anything about the particular issue itself. Here is what happened with me...My in home detectors aggravated the heck out of me with the dreaded low battery chirp. So I go buy a 9volt, get on the ladder and change it. While I am there, I decided let me test my detectors. Forgetting to put that ring listener in test mode. 5 seconds later, Ring alarm is alarming, 5 seconds later I cancel via the app, 5 seconds later, the monitoring people call me and ask if everything is ok. I say yes, i was just testing and forgot to put it in test mode. They then say well we will send the fire department no matter what. I am like why, they said because its CO alert. I said no its not, because i was just testing and a listener doesnt detect anything. They said oh well we are sending them anyway because that's our policy and no matter what you say that's what we are doing. And they did, the fire department was at my door within 3 minutes. All great responses if it was an actual emergency. The said part is Ring is basically randomly deciding to flag everything at CO level even when the device doesnt know the difference and then they do not allow you to cancel that type of alarm and will send the fire department no matter what you say. This device fraudulently flags things as CO when it doesnt know the difference. I want my money back!!!!
