X-Sense XS01-M Interconnected Smart Smoke Alarm review: Meshed fire safety

Here is a 163-word summary of the key points from the news article: The X-Sense XS01-M Interconnected Smart Smoke Alarm system offers a wireless, interconnected solution for smoke detection in homes. The system includes a base station that coordinates a mesh of up to 24 satellite smoke alarms, providing coverage throughout a home. The satellites can communicate with each other, so if one alarm is triggered, they all sound. The system also connects to a mobile app to provide notifications and remote control. While the system worked well in testing, it has some limitations - it does not detect carbon monoxide, and the base station lacks battery backup, so power outages disrupt the system. Setup can also be tricky. Additionally, one reviewer experienced an issue with a satellite alarm dropping offline. Overall, the X-Sense system provides an affordable, flexible option for interconnected smoke detection, though users should be aware of its shortcomings compared to hardwired systems. The optional professional monitoring service adds an extra layer of protection.
