Can never be too safe :slight_smile:

This piston will turn on all the lights if there is smoke or CO2 detected. It will also flash any rgb bulbs red, send multiple notifications, and hopefully incite mass panic.

mine does the same thing, but adds, turn off all fans (ceiling/box), turn off both thermostats (HVAC).
Limit airflow.

Good idea.

#4

Do you have any issues with zwave CO2/Smoke Alarms giving false postitives?

#5

I have not, no.

#6

Good to know. That’s all I need to have a heart attack is a false positive of smoke/co2 :smiley:

#7

Mind has only gone off once while burning food. But I did get a “reminder” while out a week later for some reason, and nearly had a heart attack.

I think that’s keeping me from going to the smart smoke alarms and o2 detectors. Then again, I do have cameras for all motion sensor areas so I can monitor. Maybe that’ll cure my issue knowing I can drop in to verify it’s a false alarm.

Thanks for sharing the example! Saved me some time. Now to get it connected with my google home minis…
