Description of ๐Ÿ”ฅ Honeywell 5808W3 Wireless Photoelectric Smoke/Heat Detector: Advanced Home Safety Solution

Improved Robust RF Field Strength: The distance between the detector and receiver has been significantly increased without the need for a repeater. Smart Check: A signal is sent to the control panel when the detector requires cleaning. This allows a regular nonemergency service call to clean the detector before it goes into alarm. Approved UL Listings for Residential and Commercial Applications: Both residential and commercial installation requirements are met. Additional LED Status Indicators: Identifying between alarm or trouble conditions is a snap with green and red LED status indicators. A green LED denotes a normal condition while the red LED indicates abnormal conditions. Easy to install Mounting Base: The sturdy mounting base allows the detector to be more easily installed on uneven surfaces (i.e. stucco). The mounting base has larger mounting ports which accommodate drywall anchors for easy surface mounting.

Good product. Makes me feel safer

Excellent product. Makes me feel safer Sensitivity isn't high, but that's probably on purpose as it's not a standalone alarm, it's meant to be connected to monitored systems, so better alert when something's really happening. However, if you have enough of them and in certain places at home, you can have the protection you need. Configuration with my Honeywell controller was easy. I'll ask for two or three more this time to add to the garage where I probably have the most dangerous liquids.

Pros
  • Permanent test results
Cons
  • Secret

Works well with some programming tips

I already had these at home and they work great but wanted to add more. It's easy to install for the most part, but here are a few tips that have worked for me: - If your alarm is being monitored, call them and set them to 'Test'. Open the cover of the fire detector, which sends a signal and programs it. In my case, he programmed a tamper alarm (lid opening) as if it were a fire alarm. It is better to program it manually with the code on the device. Keyboard programming isn't fun on manyโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Very good value for money
Cons
  • Not as thick as other picks

easy install, works great

Great addition and easy to install, nothing else to say other than the description. I've added this to the LYNXR-EN system - programming the panel can be tricky if you're not used to it, but that's not the fault of the detectors. As mentioned in another review, this needs to be provided prior to registration. I tested it with an incense stick and was instantly wide awake. and shortly thereafter I was on the phone with the security company. =) Heating function not checked. **2014 Update** I have

The back wall is approx. 10mm smaller, so there is a wall edge.

Replaces old 2009 model The back panel is about 10mm smaller, so some panel edges are a bit rough. I need to touch up around the device but there is NO PAINT on the device! That broke my other one. The painters were told not to paint so they removed the outer shell and completely painted over the back wall! Needless to say, the adrenaline was quickly rising from the messed up bad block I had just installed 2 days before painting. After trying to fix the damaged device, I was forced to buy a new

Pros
  • High marks for support and durability from testers
Cons
  • Definitely bad product
