This item works very well just what I needed so that I get notified of an alarm at my house when I'm not home. This was an upgrade to the system I have in place without replacing every smoke head I have,

Easy Install

The product came with all the hardware needed for the install. Enrolling it into HomeKit was easy if you strictly follow the instructions. I ran into some trouble and had to reset and start over.

Great product

The directions were very clear, the installation was simple, the setup and configuration was straightforward. I specifically like the ability to know which alarm was the source of the detection and the remote monitoring when I'm out of the house.

Easy Installation

Purchased the One Link hardwired detector to compliment our Home Kit accessories. Installation was simple as we current have First Alert hardwired detectors - The quick connect harness from our previous detector fit this system. Home Kit setup took longer than installation, but I expected technology issues….Here's to hoping that the detector sits mounted to the ceiling and never needs to be active!!

installation was pretty easy, hard part was navigating my step ladder into and out of the house. You can launch the OneLink Home app from within AppleHomekit to see detectors status smoke and carbon monoxide and battery status, and you can initiate alarm test from your cellphone. I haven't had a fire yet or a CO alert when not home or even if I was home, but presume those notifications will be delivered to my iPhone. Now if they would only make a OneLink explosive gas detector for natural gas, LP leaks...

Easy setup

All the parts I needed to hard-wire this unit to my house were in the box. After install using the app to set up WiFi and alerts was just as simple. Setup was easy.

warranty replacement

This was a warranty replacement for a dead on arrival battery. Upon installation the original unit started complaining that the battery was low. A quick call to customer service got this unit. Out of eight units this was the only one with an immediate problem.

follow on purchase

This was a follow on purchase to a pair of Onelink smoke & CO alarms. The first pair have been working well for a month so I bought more. Setup was still a bit troubled, but resetting a couple of times got me through it again.

Straightforward setup

Despite some confusion, probably stemming from the VPN configuration on my iPhone, the setup of two hardwired alarms was straightforward.

Almost Perfect

I love that Onelink works with HomeKit, Apple's smart home platform. I've been able to set up many automations thus far. Setup was somewhat easy. It took several tries to get it to pair. I would also like the nightlight feature to include a motion sensor. So it turns on when you walk by and then turns off when you walk past it.

Works well

I didn't have much of a problem with installation. I didn't get it to connect to wifi the first time, but that may have been my fault.

Great only? choice for HomeKit homes

I replaced my 3 existing hardwired smoke detectors since they were 14 years old with these. Thanks to the short adapter cables provided with the units, it was an easy plug-n-play install that took just a few minutes. I recommend wearing ear protection for initial setup and testing. I also waited until my wife had taken the kids for a walk. All 3 units worked as smoke/CO detectors when first powered up. One unit failed to connect to HomeKit on the first try, but after resetting the alarm 5 presses of the button it connected on the second try. I like the way the all the alarms announce the issue smoke/CO and its location. I also like the adjustable brightness of the nightlight, eliminating the need to install a nightlight in a dark hallway. In the Home app you'll see each unit as two sensors one smoke, one CO in whatever room you assigned each. I may decide to move them into their own HomeKit room to reduce the clutter of some of my fuller room displays. Note, the alarm location announcement is chosen independently of the assigned HomeKit room.

I just purchased a Onelink alarm, but it isn't connected to the Internet. What do I do?
If your alarm hasn't been added to a Onelink Account, follow these instructions to add it:

Download the Onelink app. Choose the Onelink product you purchased. Follow the instructions in the app to install and set-up
Why might I keep geting a message that states "Pairing Failed"?
Verify you are either scanning or entering in the correct pairing code. If you cannot get the unit to Pair via Bluetooth force close the app. IF YOU ARE USING iCloud YOU MUST ALSO TURN ON Apple Key Chain in your Settings. Then swipe away the Onelink Home App and start again after the pushing the alarm terst button 5 times to reset the alarm. Retry the pairing process now from the beginning.

Where should I install my First Alert Onelink combination Smoke and Carbon Monoxide alarms?
Minimum coverage for Smoke Alarms, as recommended by the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), is one Smoke Alarm on every floor, in every sleeping area, and in every bedroom (See "Regulatory Information For Smoke Alarms" for details on the NFPA recommendations).

For added protection, install additional CO Alarms in each separate bedroom, and on every level of your home.
