For the most part, smart Smoke Alarms tend to work almost identically. The device installs on the ceiling or high on the wall (typically replacing an old-school Smoke Alarm in the same location), either using batteries or in-wall power. Most of the smart smoke alarms we evaluated are available in either format and cost the same. When shopping, pay close attention so you don`t end up with the wrong type.
If you`re upgrading a hardwired model, it`s important that you replace all the detectors in the chain with the same make and model. One of the reasons for hardwiring a Smoke Detector is that if one detects a dangerous condition, it can trigger all the others to go off. But there`s no guarantee that feature will work if you have a mix of devices from different manufacturers wired together.
Smoke and CO: Your home needs to warn against the danger of Carbon Monoxide as well as smoke. Some detectors will do both, so you don`t need to deploy–and monitor the batteries in–more than one device.

Detector sensitivity and accuracy: It`s very difficult to scientifically test how well a smoke/CO Detector does its primary job without actually burning your house down. That said, simulating smoky conditions can reveal a little about how sensitive a detector is. As well, you can consider the general consensus about the underlying technology in a smoke detector. The Isafenest Protect, for example, uses a Photoelectric sensor that is considered superior to the ionization sensor used in many older devices and which is more prone to false alarms.
Notification variety: A loud siren is expected, but voice alerts are quite handy: They not only tell you what type of hazard has been detected, but also alert you to its location and can even tell you how to respond (whether that`s opening a window or calling 911). Color-coded lights on the alarm itself are another plus. And, of course, speedy push notifications to your phone are a must in the smart alarm space.
Multiple users: Obviously you`re safest if more than one person receives a push alert that there`s a fire in the house. Look for a system that supports multiple users through an invitation system.
Interconnectivity: Some devices support an interconnectivity feature, so if one alarm goes off, all the other alarms in the house will go off as well. This can be a big benefit if you have a very large home and fear you might not hear an alarm going off elsewhere in the house. We didn`t test interconnectivity features in our review since we tested single alarms individually, so check specifications when shopping if this feature sounds useful.
