YoLink Photoelectric Smoke Alarm

I actually have 10 of these Yolink smoke detectors and I use them for several reasons.

1. The detectors are very easy to setup.
2. They alert you through the Yolink App on your phone when triggered.
3. They can be set to do a periodic automatic remote self test
4. I run HomeSeer home automation software with the AK Yolink plugin and I can setup all sorts of automation events to trigger if the smoke alarm activates.
5. I have several rental homes and if one is vacant I temporarily install several of these smoke detectors along with a some Yolink motion sensors. I connect the Yolink hub to the internet with a verizon wifi jetpack
6. This newer smoke detector version is smaller and easier to install than the earlier versions.
7. You can also look at the smoke detector details in the Yolink app and see the temperature.

I only wish they were a bit cheaper.

Seamless provisioning on existing yolink network. Simple installation.
Application is to monitor enclosed Attic spaces for smoke in case of fire in Wildland Urban Imterface (WUI)m house. The remote alert capability is crucial - during a wildfire event embers may ignite burning in spaces not easily accessible.
Suggestion: display current device temperature on dashboard (updated during periodic device health monitoring), Understand not accurate as yolink dedicated sensors but provides another piece of seasonal house status

Seems to work, no smoke yet to test. They are much smaller than the ones I am replacing. Needed to modify the mounting plate so I wooden have to repaint.

I wanted to have a WiFi smoke detector that did not require a subscription and YoLink had one. I bought it at a good price and was easy to install and test. The battery lasts 5 years and I hope I can replace it. I am well pleased with this YoLink smoke detector.

I’ve had yolink door sensors for about three years, started expanding with other modules I love it all notifications all in one place
