When one smoke alarm is set off, it sends a wireless signal using radio frequency to other units in the house and the alarm will sound in all parts of the house. An interconnected wireless smoke sounder is also available which will announce a voice message such as "Danger", "Fire", "Wake Up".The 3 AA batteries used will power a unit for up to a year, although AC-connected units are also available.
