It most likely will only report on (big) changes of value or max interval, to preserve battery life as sending data is the most battery consuming.

Ok  
I think i need to test it  
Any idea how to make a fire without burning down my house? 😂

It is only smoke and not heat sensor… Right?

It calls itself a smoke sensor, and not a fire sensor, so yes, it most likely will only sense smoke.  
To test, well if you are a smoker, or have a friendly neighbour that does, just blow smoke into it.

I have it in the kitchen, and it works I found out when cooking a few weeks ago 🤣. Will buy another one soon for upstairs.

For my own piece of mind I will keep one or two “dumb” smoke detectors as well for now, but it seems to be working just fine.

Just try it out and it works perfectly.
