Question

Does anyone use the ecobee fire fighter listener?  

Answer 1

I had one for awhile. Eventually just went with firstalert zcombos

@unclothe1851 I cant seem to set it up so that it comes up in the smartthings home monitor

Hm, never tried. Probably 'hackable' if you use a virtual smoke detector device and connect them together via WebCoRE.

@unclothe1851 did you find a wired (non-battery) one?

@damalis928 No

Answer 2

Alexa Guard listens for alarms if you already have an echo device

Answer 3

I use it on my existing interconnected smoke detectors. It should be in SHM. Mine is and looks the same as the three zcombos I also have. Did you get the third party device handler?  

Answer 4

I have one but, like you, it isn’t recognized as a fire alarm by “home monitor “. I just use it as a standalone device to trigger notifications and other actions.  

Answer 5

Is this only on the 4’s with built in echo?  

Answer 6

Yes, I have one installed by a interconnected wired detector. Only need one if they are interconnected

Answer 7

Ecolink. Not to be confused with ecobee.  

Answer 8

WTF is an Ecobee Fire Fighter?  

Comments

@supine he meant ecolink

Answer 9

@lemma maybe you should correct the manufacturer’s name in your post. Half of the people don’t know what the heck you’re talking about. Ecobee doesn’t have anything like this.  

Answer 10

First Alert Z-Wave Smoke and Carbon Monoxide Detectors

@capitular great but only battery

Reliability is top notch though, had issues with Fire Fighters in the past.
