The word detector is a technicality that we can assume OP does not know..

This guy can put a relay smoke ALARM in the restroom and just have the relay trip something like https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07RW6DYVB/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_awdb_t1_7uIODb3PWRBD7

If he wanted he could just pull the pezo out of the Smoke Alarm and boom you have exactly what OP wants without breaking any rules or laws..

If op cannot figure it out op shouldn’t play with it..

Sure. I mean (cheap) ones that aren't hooked to the mains - something like this.

That's the most common to use. Punk is a wood based stick, a lot like incense. It works faster because something is actually burning.

I would try a different USB to Serial Cable. There are some cheap ones with converter chips that are not very good. I have this cable that I use for more finicky stuff and it works really well.

It also had LEDs that show if data is actually getting transmitted etc.

No problem, looks like you need to just replace it, since it's the harness type just replace the device and leave the wiring, see if you can silicone the holes were the wiring is coming in since it appears to be powered by 120, here is one that looks to be the same connection type http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00O8MVW12/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?qid=1449790458&sr=8-1&pi=SY200_QL40&keywords=brk+first+alert+9120&dpPl=1&dpID=41OrDmD736L&ref=plSrch Looks to be a house smoke and not connected to a separate panel somewhere , hope this helps

Highly recommend the Dottie 15- in 1, if you're going to be working in this field any length of time, it will be essential to fire alarm, cameras, access control, and other fields.
