The smoke alarm sounds like a real fire alarm

[@davidsidrak]

JEFF? CAN YOU HEAR ME? JEFF????

[@TakoElevators]

It looks like the SC7010LBLV

"mom can we get nest protect?"
"no we have nest protect at home"
nest protect at home:

[@thatonebusguy]

Exactly, OneLink has copied nest straight up

[@soundfile_exe3859]

I heard that they have alexa on the new version of these.

[@zekenzy6486]

awesome

[@BukuiZhao]

Nest protect is better

[@irgendwerausbayern1999]

It sounds like a 🤖 when it talks!

[@pawjwp6815]

That thing is the activator logo

The first copy of the nest

[@Sfbaytech]

Doesn't smoke rise and carbon monoxide lie low to the floor? I wonder how well that works.

[@cottencandycat1180]

Carbon monoxide is extremely light it rises so this is great

[@butterdog223]

No carbon monoxide and smoke rise idiot that’s why if there is smoke you crawl on the ground

[@theshark84724]

Why can’t you have it CALL THE FIRE DEPARTMENT SO THEY COME ASAP INSTEAD OF YOUR HOUSE BURNING ALL THE WAY DOWN LIKE ANY CHEAP FIRE ALARM?

[@arlowavesYT]

Dude smoke alarms don't work that way

[@DoctorProctor-ti4fb]

it looks like nest a bit

[@BukuiZhao]

But I think first alert copied it

[@BukuiZhao]

Also nest protect is much better, this voice does not sound clear

@@brandonwilson4281 what are you talking about

[@pepevera670]

It is disturbing being it shouldn't be chirping every 20 seconds, how do I stop it, Turn it off

[@licorish]

Hey you made a super common grammatical error, the alarm goes on NOT. It triggers the alarm and turns the lights on. Why do people say when they hear a bomb or an alarm or metal detector when it triggers why say it goes off when it really goes on so when you don't hear it does it also go off or is it on see what I mean makes no sense

[@keithbrockway5759]

Mike S oh, who cares?!

[@taz99]

it makes complete sense, and if you haven't caught on to what people are saying then... elementary school?

[@shailong3254]

agreed. I set on the alarm. After 10 minutes the alarm went off.

[@remmysitspeak677]

it looks like nest protect

[@irgendwerausbayern1999]

Remmy sit speak The button on the NEST Protect is round and here it is square-shaped.

[@thegamerlamp1403]

Remmy sit speak it does

[@bored.idiot.5]

They stole the idea

[@BukuiZhao]

@@irgendwerausbayern1999 I think they copied or ripoffed it so I'm not getting this one, I'm getting the newer redesigned one as that one is not ripoff Nest Protect. BTW Nest protect is still much better than either.

[@thatonebusguy]

@@irgendwerausbayern1999 doesn't matter.Copied nest bit by bit.All they changed is 2 things- voice and button

[@Marshy20050303]
