What it is
Summary
AI-generated from vendor-published content · April 26, 2026
This smoke detector senses smoke via a photocell and wirelessly transmits an alert signal to Medallion Series receivers, which can trigger flashing lights or bed shakers instead of (or in addition to) an audible alarm. It's designed for people who are deaf or hard of hearing and may not reliably hear a standard smoke alarm, particularly during sleep. This is not a standalone solution — it requires at least one compatible Medallion Series receiver (sold separately) to actually alert you. Battery-powered with a long-life 3V lithium cell, it installs in any room, but you'll need to budget for and plan the receiver placement throughout your home to get full coverage.
