The SmokeSight smoke alarms are designed and built with a unique quality emphasis.
We believe a quality smoke alarm is one that:
- is safe
- is accurate
- self monitors
- is maintenance free
- is simple
Where fire deaths occurred in homes with smoke alarms, 27% of the smoke alarms were not working.
The absence of working smoke alarms can increase the possibility of a fatal fire by 60%.

SmokeSight’s approach to being a quality smoke alarm is as follows:
| Quality Attribute | SmokeSight’s Solution |
|---|---|
| Safety Reliable over its expected lifetime | Certified by ActivFire Australia to AS3786:2014. The only alarm to incorporate AutoTest* and EscapeLighting*. AutoTest performs scheduled whole of alarm testing to confirm correct operation. EscapeLighting is a flashing white LED, which visually alerts you of an alarm and illuminates your escape path. |
| Accurate Alarms only in the event of a real fire. Nuisance alarms are minimised | Each alarm is individually, digitally calibrated. CalmAlarm compensates for temperature and humidity variation. It also accommodates dust buildup. So for you, a very low likelihood of a nuisance alarm. |
| Self monitors Detects and warns if its perfomance is impeded | Monitors battery and internal smoke sensor degradation. The only alarm to incorporate AutoTest* which performs whole of alarm (sensor, controller, sounder) self-testing. |
| Minimal maintenace Easy to maintain and difficult to damage | The only alarm to incorporate BatteryBliss** extending replaceable battery life from 1 year to 5 years. Coupled with AutoTest* annual servicing is non existent, except if your alarm needs to be vacuumed. Reduced regular servicing coupled with instructions on how to remove the alarm, engraved in the cover, mean the alarm is less prone to handling damage. |
| Simple Easy to install, configure and operate | Large enough to cover unpainted areas under existing alarms. Just power up the alarms in sequence to configure the wireless network. No tricky setup. One button and one LED gives you access to all alarm configuration and information. The only alarm to incorporate ClapSilence*. A false alarm can be silenced with a simple, double hand clap. |
*Available on SS10MAMA and SS10LNAN models
**5 year battery life using supplied backup batteries with SS10MANN and SS10MAMA mains powered models. SS10LNAN incorporates a 10 year Lithium primary battery. SS10MAMA and SS10LNAN Option card primary battery life is also 5 years.
