I have 2 of these in my house connected to Wink Hub 2 and integrated into Home Assistant through Wink and like them.
Kidde 21010625 Battery Operated Wireless Interconnected Combination Smoke & Carbon Monoxide Alarm
Zwave is a non-internet connected protocol... wireless in the free spectrum... the base station is connected to the internet and controllable from my phone/tablet, but the individual sensors are not.
​
I started with looking at a method to detect leaks on the washing machine/water heater and cut the main plumbing line if either happened... my water heater is 19 years old so it is time to either worry the bottom will fall out or replace it ... average life on them is only about 15 years... Mine shows no signs of leaks....
​
Once I had printers and wanted a way to cut off the power the plug and detector were pretty cheap to add to my existing system.... Once all is hooked up in the phone/tablet app you can program if/then type actions... i.e. if any leak detector sees moisture then cut off water and text me..... if smoke detector triggers turn off outlets and text me... if any sensor reports low battery email an alert....
The smoke detector is mounted on the ceiling directly above the printers... would be better inside the enclosure but then I would need 2 verse 1 ... and any smoke escaping from the enclosures should still trigger it...
I picked Zwave over the other products of the type because it is low energy and it is not a chatty protocol... i.e.. there isn't a constant stream of heartbeats going... the base station poles all sensors every couple of days for battery status and that is about it... So the sensor batteries last a couple of years... and once charged the capacitor on the sensor will alert even if the battery is dead in that 2 day period...
