Keep watch around the clock. When motion is detected, you’ll receive an alert and can view captured video clips anytime, anywhere on your phone.
When installed in a First Response security system, it can detect a potential intruder, record a short video clip and transmit it to our monitoring center enabling video alarm verification. The confirmation that an intrusion or any other event is in progress can reduce false alarms and help achieve a faster higher priority response from first responders. When the system is armed, the camera captures up to a 10-second digital video segment. The alarm and video segment are then reported via the control panel to the central monitoring station.

Our smoke detector can be triggered by either smoke or extremes in temperature, allowing it to respond more quickly during a fire. It uses photoelectric technology, which means that there is a small light as well as a photosensor inside the sensor. Smoke entering the chamber will cause the light to refract, striking the photosensor. For heat detection, our sensor utilizes both fixed temperature (135°F) and rate-of-rise (15°F rise per minute w/ temperature above 104°F) detection. With one-go-all-go technology, you can trust your family is safe with our smoke detector.
