desertcart.com: Ring Alarm Smoke & CO Listener | Mobile App Notifications for Existing Smoke/CO Detectors | Base Station Required : Tools & Home Improvement

Review: Good for Whole House Smoke/CO Systems - With Ring, you have two choices when it comes to alerting you and others that smoke or CO is in the house: a First Alert smoke/CO detector with Z-wave technology or this listener. The first actually detects a problem, and this listener waits for other detectors to go off before reporting the problem. Because I have a hard-wired system where every alarm goes off when one does, the listener was the most cost-effective. I need only one listener instead of several detectors placed throughout the house. If we didn't have a whole-house system, then I would have gotten one listener for each floor since it still would have been fewer devices than if I placed new detectors in every bedroom and hallway. As with all Ring security devices, this listener was a breeze to install and activate. Just follow the instructions on the app, and it's added to your list within minutes. The most time consuming part is installing it 6" or less from an existing detector. That is as difficult as drilling holes and screwing the base in. If you have a hard-wired, whole-house system, you can select any alarm to place it next to, even in an out-of-the-way location. Note: If you are connected to Ring's service, make sure you follow the instructions to put it in test mode so that it doesn't trigger a response. I love my Ring security system, and this listener add functionality that I didn't expect when I first bought into the system. -- Debbie Lee Wesselmann
Review: Peace of Mind - We bought these because we were going on vacation, and I wanted to know if the smoke alarms go off. We live in a rural area with far away neighbors. Much easier to install these instead of buying new smoke detectors. I have tested them, and they seem to work well. This gives us some peace of mind while on vacation and a little less stress worrying about the house.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can you use this to monitor general audio throughout the app?  Similar to the cameras but without video?**
A: It is set to listen to the sound a smoke detector makes. It even states that the detector has to be recent or it doesn't work. So no, it can not be used for general audio!

**Q: I have the ring alarm system. why can’t this device be used on smoke detectors that are older than 10 years old? mine are 14 years old**
A: 1st off you definitely need to replace any smoke detector that is 10 years old or older, they do have dates on them. 2nd it states that it CAN be used with older detectors. This is Rings answer to older detectors that don't connect to the Ring alarm.

**Q: Can I bypass this when my system is disarmed? The alarm near our kitchen goes off frequently and I don’t want it to call when at home during the day.**
A: There is a 15 minute bypass for testing purposes (by pushing a button on the listener), and you can change your reporting status to "Self" (versus "monitored") in anticipation of benign smoke, and finally a longer push of the button on the listener may also create a prolonged disabling (this is not documented but in doing a setup I accidentally stumbled on this I believe).  But, NO, you can not click a radio button on the app to take the listener offline in any mode.  Finally, if your kitchen smoke detector is going off frequently, you might consider if you are using the right detector (photoelectric vs ionization) and location in the kitchen.

**Q: Will it work with alarms that speak the problem (smoke/CO2) and location with a human voice (or only those that emit a siren noise)?**
A: The Ring listener is listening for T3 (smoke) and T4 (carbon monoxide/CO) audio signals from the smoke/CO sensor.  These are also known as 'Temporal 3' and 'Temporal 4' signals.  Essentially the T3 (smoke) audio output is three on/off pulses of an audio tone, with a frequency of approximately 500 Hz.  The T4 (CO) audio output is four of these on/on audio pulses.  Like the original poster, I own several Kidde i12010SCO smoke/CO detectors and have not been able to get the Ring listener to respond to smoke/CO alarm testing events.  I have confirmed with Kidde and with my ears that the Kidde i12010SCO audio output does have the T3 and T4 outputs.  Still working to determine why the Ring listener doesn't respond to the audio outputs from my Kidde detector.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I like these things, peace of mind
*by L***W on February 5, 2026*

I love knowing that my smoke detectors in the remote locations of the house that might not be heard when alarming are being monitored and that the ring alarm will sound even when disarmed when a detector alarms. Only thing I would suggest for improvement is that a software feature be incorporated that can send an app notification when the battery is dying in the actual smoke detector. When it is dying, the actual smoke detector will periodically sound a single beep. The monitor is sitting right there next to it hearing this. Why can’t it alert the base station and have the app notify me to change the battery in the actual smoke detector? Just have it so if it hears 10 consecutive single beeps all spaced equal time apart, have the app notify me. If you’re worried about liability, just have the app notify what it has heard. ie: “Smoke detector monitor in garage has heard 10 consecutive single beeps all spaced 1 minute apart.” Then put in your usage agreement that the feature does not absolve the owner of the responsibility to change their batteries every 6 months and manually test every 1 month as required by manufacturer recommendations “ or something like that. I just think this is a feature that can be incorporated and would be really nice to have.
