Hello all, I’m looking for a smoke detector device to connect with my Homey. What smoke detector do you use? Do you advice that device? I’m very curious to your opinions :smiley: Michiel

I use the Kaku ones too. You can indeed use the Trust app on your Homey to add the Kaku smoke (and CO) detectors, just like @Dijker mentioned. Works great!

Cant find it in the documentation Do all smoke sensor units sound when one is triggered? (Or can you make a flow that makes them all sound the alarm) For the kaku Or the heimdall

No, they are not connected for alarm sounds and you can not externally trigger the alarms as well. But since you have Homey, you can play alarm sounds on your smart speakers (and have them say where smoke is detected), add external sirenes, turn on (or flash) your lights, open the curtains, blinds,…

I recommend frient or develco smoke detector. They work very well and integration is easy.

Hello. I’m considering getting the Homey Pro, but am not a Homey user yet. I also want Owl Wired smoke detectors (Matter, HomeKit, Alexa, IFTT and Google compatible). The Owl is a very new product. What is the likelihood that I would be able to control it or utilise Owl’s many sensors via Homey?

Hello, It should work with Matter sensor devices, but it’s a bit in an early stage. According to this article below, from sensor types only motion- and contact sensors are supported by Matter itself for now → so I guess only the motion sensor of the Owl Wired should work for now. [Screenshot_20…

That’s a very useful set of articles - thanks! I read about Matter a while back, but I’m impatient and hoped it was further advanced by now. I assume smoke detectors will be last on the list - potentially life-saving devices - so they won’t want to take any risks.

To be honest it’s very disapointing you cannot trigger them all…
