Nice and easy to install
User friendly. Easy to install. Currently priced at 21.99 which seems in line with others on the market. Sensitive, keeping the family safe.
Small, nice design and works perfect.
– Easy to install
– Easy to interconnect
– Works
– You can buy remote so you don’t need a broom stick, ladder or ear protection to switch off when you’ve got a false alarm
– I use these in 3 rooms on two levels in combination (but not connected to) two combi smoke/carbon monoxide alarms
Loud and easy to use
This is really good set with the added bonus of linking more together. Unfortunately these ones don’t have the app support like CO detectors, but at the end of the day, the app support only useful for long distance monitoring anyways. The devices them selves are much louder, than the app ever could be.
Safer and more convenient for kitchens
Much better than our old smoke alarm. This detects a sudden change in heat. This fantastic in the kitchen as there has been no more false alarms whilst cooking.
I like the option to link to other devices although I’ve yet to purchase more.
Very Useful fire alarm
This fire alarm works wirelessly and is very easy to install.
Battery life is 10 years! That is very good value for money.
It is a very useful tool.
I am very Happy with this order and gladly recommend it.
Good smoke alarm. Look after family and home.
This seems a good smoke alarm, so easy to fit and has a 10 year sealed battery.
This smoke alarm can link up to 24xsense link wireless alarms.
Fitted with a silence button so easy to perform regular tests and silence alarms.
Worth the money.
Def. 5 stars.
Thank you for reading my review, I do hope it helped.
Neat, modern, unobtrusive and efficie
This is a part of a set of connected alarms meaning that if one of them picks up a fire, all of the alarms will sound. I believe it is the kind recommended by the Fire Service. In a kitchen environment, this heat-detector type alarm is much preferable and much less likely to accidentally become set off – and then to set off the others in the house for no reason. It is simple to fit, requires no battery for a decade and looks very neat on the ceiling.
very good device
ice small compact heat alarm, very easy to install and setup, sounds very loud upon testing
Excellent alarm
This is a great alarm. Bring heat activated makes it more reliable than a smoke detector, and better for use in or near a kitchen as it won’t be set off by burning toast etc!
It was easy to connect with other X-Sense alarms, and testing is easy as it has a large central button.
Can’t comment on battery life for several years hopefully!
Compac
The one I have is a heat alarm and NOT a smoke alarm.
It is fairly compact and isn’t particularly any more obvious/ intrusive than other fire alarms.
If you have multiple of these they can interconnect which is a great feature as if one alarm goes off all will go off, however can’t attest to this as only have one.
Great safety measure. Well made and good value.
New legislation in feb 2022 in Scotland says that fire prevention alarms should be interlinked. This means if one goes off, they all go off, so you will always hear an alarm wherever you are in your home, this unit can connect with up to 24 other units. They can be heat alarms like this one or smoke alarms or carbon monoxide alarms etc.
The chip is sensitive but intelligent and will monitor temperature changes that may be caused by a fire. It can be installed in areas they may create false alarms with fumes or dust such as kitchens, attics or garages for example.
I particularly like that these are protected by a 5 year warranty and the battery will last 10 years.
Also installation is simple. You can screw it up if you prefer but I’m a fan of sticking them up. Fuss free.
I feel better and much safer now they are up and wonder why I didn’t do it sooner.
In my opinion these are great value, easy to use and well made.
I hope my review helps you.
Solid build quality!
Solid build quality and small enough that it looks neat on the ceiling.
Well constructed and well made system.
Extremely easy to install and set up.
Immediate link up of individual units on removal of battery tapes.
Alarms when tested emitted a very loud high pitched sound with all alarms sounding after one of the alarms is tripped.
Can’t comment on battery life as it’s a new install.
All in all an excellent, easy to install system with a 5 Year Guarantee with option too increase this to 7 Years on registration.
Excellent value for money, and I have no hesitation in highly recommending this alarm system.
The photo shows alarm fitted to ceiling.
Interlinked system
Great product. Interlinked system, provided
good protection for the home. Easy to install however it was a bit more challenging Interlinking the system. However once set up, it works great.
OK - but remember - THESE ARE NOT WIFI!
A good set of alarms that easily fit to the ceiling with supplied mounts.
They pair up easily to each other.
REMEMBER, THOUGH – THESE ARE NOT THE WIFI VERSION! You won’t be able to pair these to the WiFi variant, but can apparently add them to an existing x-sense WiFi network – I’ve only got one wifi unit so can’t verify this.
Range between units is good – got one in my garage and two in the house, all talk to each other happily.
Glad we have them!
Thank goodness we’ve not needed them but my they are loud! All linked together, I ‘overcooked’ something and the whole house knew about it!!
Glad we have them. Very compact and simple to fit. Would recommend
Difficult to connect all 3 but works well when you do
Had a few challenges getting them to connect to each other, took multiple times trying before it worked. However when it did, they work really well
Works perfectly
Arrived sooner than expected and well packaged. Very easy to set up and fit. Tested with incense sticks and separated by about 40 metres. Although there’s not muck smoke from an incense stick all three sounded after about 30 seconds of continuous smoke but they are not too sensitive, like some, so they won’t activate every time there’s the slightest whiff of smoke. With a 60 day money back guarantee and 7 year warranty, when registered online, what’s not to like? Worth every penny IMO. Cannot rate the battery as it’s too early to tell but it’s a nice touch that they are included. Very happy.

Easy to install and look nice and nea
I bought a 6 pack of these, plus two separate carbon monoxide detectors from the same brand. They were very easy to link together (the smoke alarms sent out currently are the newer Link+ ones which are compatible with the carbon monoxide detectors). They were also easy to install and look neat on the ceiling. The light is on the side, so you can have it pointing away from heads of beds etc. which can be helpful, plus I like the fact that if the alarm does sound, you can tell which one triggered it as all the others will silence when you press the button. No more running around the house trying to check every single room.
We have only had them installed for a couple of weeks but have had no false alarms so far and they are easy to test (and very loud). They have no problems connecting to each other around a 4 bed house – where they are on different floors and 6-7 metres apart.
The manufacturer told me they expect to be launching a linked heat alarm in the summer, so I am looking forward to adding some of those to my network.
As others have said, with the replaceable battery they don’t meet the scottish requirements, but they are a nice piece of kit and work well for the rest of the UK.

Synchronization is a bit fiddley and loud
I’m not giving a full review, I hope never to. I’m hoping they are never pushed into action. Screwed into the ceiling near the centre of the ceiling, not too obtrusive ask the missus. A bit of work to synchronise them but they work silently and passively. Hopefully that’s the way they’ll stay.
Wireless alarms
These alarms were tremendous value and so easy to fit. The fact that they were all linked in the factory meant the job was much easier.
I have recommended these to friends.
GREAT BUY
These were ideal and works fine ……(the comment about them being unresposive, tested at 150 feet, really -what size of house have you got )….?.
everything was fine
everything was fine. just need to be aware these are smoke detectors, not heat detectors
Save money
Firms are charging upwards of 200 to fit these,easy to fit and set up yourself.
Creating a linked set of XS01-WR Smoke detectors
XS01-WR (other models with different features are available). A set of three or six in a box are already linked to each other but each can can be linked into one larger set if required (up to 24). Quick and easy to fit onto a plasterboard ceiling or other suitable location that can take a small plug and screw fitting (provided). Good sounders and easy to test. Long life lithium batteries. No false alarms so far. A remote controller can be linked to an interconnected cluster to test or cancel alarms. The smoke detectors are compact and neat.

Good value
Good price easy to install and easy to link together. Would recommend this to anyone looking for a small nice looking smoke. Detector.
Doesn't meet new Scottish regulations
Sadly these are no good for the new Scottish fire alarm regulations, which need to have a sealed battery and heat detectors. This isn’t the companies fault obviously.
But if you are looking for some cheap inter-linked alarms for 2022 regulations, this isn’t it.

Does what it says
All seems to work fine and it’s great to have them interconnected.
Grea
Easy to set up and install good value for money recommend these
good product great to fit and does what its made for.
it was easy to fit, with instructions that were easy to read, had them up and running in under one hour.
Good job
It would be good if it had a button to make it go off as if there was an actual fire.
Look dece
As just newly received, I can’t comment on battery life
Compliant with Scottish regs
Easy to install; I used no more nails. Read instructions carefully for location as you could install in a ‘dead spot’ where smoke is less likely to go in the event of a fire. Easy to test from one unit. Compliant with new Scottish regs. as all interlinked. Job done!
Easy to use and install
Great purchase,great value, recommending to all my friends as these are a legal requirement in Scotland
Scottish Legal
From Feb 2022 households will be required to fit smoke & heat alarms in Scotland. Carbon Monoxide is also included. They have to be hardwired or wireless connected. I have smoke alarms already in the house. This product looks good, looks easy to install and will cover me legally for insurance etcetera.

Excellent value for money
Brilliant product for money. Easy to install. Can’t comment on battery life yet as only had them one week. Seller was very fast in shipping.
ok
dont know bout the batteries have to wait ten years but seem ok i guess
Pretty easy to set up.
Only had for a couple of weeks so not really had a chance to put them to the test. But went off a couple of times and were really easy to reset.
Easy to network but instruction manual print is too small!
I know this reflects my age BUT manufacturers should know to include a Quick Start Guide (QSG) that doesn’t require a magnifying glass to read. All in all the instruction booklet SHOULD include a QSG leaflet in English with a suitable font size!!

I’m happy with my purchase.
Liked these alarms, easy to fit. Already interconnected, and they look well.
Easy to fi
Slight problem linking them but got there in end. Work well.
Easy to interlink and install
Found installation instructions easy to follow. Had them interlinked and installed in less that 10 minutes.
Peace of mind
Very easy to test and ‘interconnect’ with each other, (further smoke alarms can be added at a later date if you wish), simple to install.
Bought due to the change in legislation here in Scotland.
Hopefully will never have to report that they work in the case of smoke or fire!
Excellent alarm small and discree
Bought this single alarm to link to 3 others bought as a set, paired really easily. Excellent alarms. Would highly recommend.
Easy to fit and home now safer.
Great little detector alarms. One goes off they all go off. Wonderful idea and so easy to install a child could do it,if they were tall enough
No idea what battery life is like but they are small and seem very well made.
They paired easily and seem to work as expected. I also bought the CO03D CO2 detector and it failed to pair. Retuned it for credit. The X-Sense website states that it should pair. Now going to try the XC-01 to see if it pairs. Again, the website says it should.
Safety
This product is compatible with the new fire safety regs in Scotland & should be a buy for the rest of the UK.
The only problem I had, was the tiny writing on the instructions!

Does what you want nice and loud and very easy to install
Would definitely recommend
Very easy to install

Grea
Great little smoke alarm system which can be easily added too.looks sleek and modern without being obtrusive. Great connectivity.
great price
lovely and small great price does the job well and no hard wiring .So easy to install.
Will buy next time
Definitely, they are good products. I spent some time in connecting and testing then before installation. I tried 3-4 times to connect one of them to the other two. Fortunately, they have been tested and installed successfully.
Good for 2 properties
Bought these as my mum has dementia and lives next door. We didn’t know if this would work on 2 houses & both houses are 17th C with very solid stone walls. We wanted peace of mind as she still has a coal fire, it does confuse her if it goes off but at least we know and can be at her house in seconds to reassure her. Very easy to install.
No braine
Really easy to install. Follow the instructions, and feel a little more comfortable when you go to sleep.
They work between all 3 floors of our house
They work between all 3 floors of our house (beneath floating concrete floor in basement). Have yet to test with real smoke pleased batteries are renewable. They are roughly half the size of a traditional smoke alarm. All worked straight out of the box with no issues (Pk of 3 purchased).
X sense smoke detectors
Delivery on time. These smoke detectors are so easy to install. Nice compact design, came already interlinked. Also purchased the remote, so no having to get ladders out to test or turn off the alarms. Good quality too.
Linked I
Great little kit this. I wanted to link various outbuildings to detect any smoke especially with one being a utility with a tumble drier. These looked the part and were simple to install, set up and use.
There is a confidence in setting off all alarms from a single location to alert people, even if that location is not occupied. This plus the sturdy design and compact nature give an ideal purchase
Good range for pairing
Quick review. I installed 2 of these in outbuildings 70 feet from the house and they link back to the one in the house OK. I linked them before i installed them just in case the range interferrd with the linking.
LOUD! - And really really easy to set up
Neat… I used magnetic self adhesive mounting plates to install which made them even easier, loud (and that’s a good thing), interconnect well and really pleased with the appearance – call me sad but I had the whole system up in about 10 minutes of opening the box and spent the rest of the evening feeling pleased with myself.
I’ve not rated battery life because it’s only been a couple of days – ask me again in 5 years
Overall, a five star review. You can tell there has been a lot of thought and care put into producing these detectors. Even the packaging and the instructions are top quality. The units themselves are really well designed, they’re small and look great on the ceiling (really).
I’ve read reviews from people that say they’ve tested these alarms with smoke and that they don’t work. I’ve also read reviews where people say that the alarms fail to link.
I bought two 3 packs (6 alarms in total).
I followed the instructions for interlinking. You need to press the button four times in quick succession to add a new alarm to your existing network. If you’re too slow, you will fail to interlink the alarms. Once you realise this, interlinking works every time.
Also, I tested all the alarms using a can of “Smoke Sabre – smoke detector test aerosol” – search for it on Amazon…. Not cheap at about 16….. but every alarm responded correctly. There was a bit of delay between spraying the smoke and the detector sounding…. but this was fine for me. I don’t want the smoke alarms going off with every minute whiff of something that might be smoke. I only want an alarm when there’s a problem brewing.
Highly recommended.
Nice smart looking fire alarm that is easy to fi
Nice smart looking fire alarm that is easy to fit. It’s very thin and prettier that the other fire alarms we have had, if you can call a fire alarm pretty. The slim design means its not as conspicuous as other alarm.
The 10-year battery life means you can install it and then forget about it. We live in a village with no shops so have had the old style fire alarms alerting us that their batteries need to be changed by beeping regularly and driving you mad, not applicable with this one siren is loud when tested, luckily so far I’ve only heard it whilst testing.
Excelle
I really like these. Well packaged with minimal plastic. Easy to install, very clear instructions. Linked up all alarms easily. Would highly recommend.
Good aesthetic units
Small compact units at a realistic price. Cannot comment as to longevity as only just installed
Very good
Got them in every room when one goes off they all go off very good for the deep sleepers
Worth the money
Very good smoke detector. Easy to install and easy to setup and link them all together.
Neat, small, unobtrusive smoke alarm, useful interlink feature.
Having had multiple ‘other’ brand smoke alarms fail due to the built-in long-life battery not lasting as predicted, I decide to change makes and purchase these, having seen a good review of them / the system online.
They are much smaller than existing alarms (like a jam doughnut size) and fit easily with the included screws / kit.
Added benefit is that this model is one of the few to still have a changable battery (although a 5yr / long-life version), so if they do suffer battery failure like the other brand, it’s just a case of buying a new common battery and not a whole unit, so overall a better ROI.
Added benefit of these is that they are interlinkable, so if one alarm sounds, they all do, giving added piece of mind to safety, considering that I was fitting these throughout the elderly Parents’ place whom are hard of hearing. So now I know that if an alarm sounds in a room that they are not in, they will be alerted by the unit nearest them, hopefully giving extra time to deal with the issue at hand.

Linked smoke detectors
Delivered quickly and easy to install and link the 6 togethe
Great little interconncted alarms.
Seem to work great. Can’t comment on battery yet. Connect really easy. Tiny in size and look nice. Even work as a call to our son in out house. when his phone is off. Only had a few month but would recommend
Alarmingly good
Beautifully designed and easy to set up with clear instructions. I hope we never hear them sound in anger, but their presence is a great comfort.
Easy to Install and Ready to go
Great little smoke alarms that are attractively designed and connect with each other wirelessly so if one goes off the others alarm too. Don’t know about battery life but they are replaceable with a predicted life of 5 years.
Much better than the NEST
Used to have the NEST ones throughout, over 12 units, cost me a fortune and they kept having false positives, they would go off in the middle of the night for no reason, a little bit of dust in them and boom.
The x-sense ones are a fraction of the price, they connect together to give a full coverage and they haven’t caused a problem for over 4 months now, I am very pleased.
Totally recommend
Small but loud wireless smoke detectors
Really straightforward to set up. Work well, are small and neat but loud! We bought these to protect an outbuilding so installed one in the building and a wireless link connects it to a second in the main house. So it works through brick walls etc.. perfect for what we wanted.
Ideal for my remote garage since they are interlinked.
We were unable to hear our old alarm from the house so there could have been a fire and we would be unaware.
This problem has now been resolved.
Seem to be high quality product.
Bought pack of 3 of these from Amazon then pack of 6. They come in pack ready wirelessly connected to each other and it was easy to connect the 3 to the 6 so all 9 work together. Too early to judge but they seem high quality and work well so far.
Simple to install, effective in use
As I’m installing power to my detached garage I wanted to ensure I was alerted if there were ever any issues while in the house, and vice versa if working in the garage.
Three of these, all paired straight from the box, installed and tested in under 10 minutes. I’ve replaced my existing alarm in the hallway with one of these, and added one on the landing upstairs. Each tested and happily pinging/triggering the other two.
For reference, it’s a 250 year old house with very thick walls. The garage is 6m from the house, and total 15m from the nearest alarm in the house and it all works seamlessly.
I shall be buying some more to expand coverage to each of the bedrooms, the living room and the dining room. With high ceilings downstairs, it could take a lot of smoke in one room before it spills under the top of the door frame and triggers the hallway alarm, so for less than the price of a single nest alarm I can add 3 more rooms with this system.

Takes time to link
I bought 3 alarms. Took some time to make them link. Now installed and working perfectly over the length of our bungalow
Safety
Easy to install and to interconnect with each other will definitely be back for some more
Solidly built product with very easy set up & installatio
Easy to set up and install. Very compact but solid build make the alarms look good as well. I hope they never have to be used for real but having tested them out I feel so much more secure in the knowledge that all 3 stories of the house are linked. I only marked down the battery life as I have no way of confirm their longevity yet.
Great easy set up
Quick and simple to install. Once all three were installed, a quick press of the button linked them.. Easy… And meets the current proposed Scottish legislation changes.
Always been a little worried about a fire in my workshop especially after welding etc.
Fixed 2 of these in my workshop and the 3rd one on my landing in the house. The workshop is approx 30m away from the house.
Tested using the button and tested with a small bit of smouldering wood. Both times instant alarm activation back to the house.
Gives real peace of mind particularly during the night.
My title says it all, – they came out of the box ready mated, all one has to do is energise the circuit by removing the battery isolation paper and they’re working. Tested all 3 on the table, then placed them in their respective locations & tested again once the ceiling fittings were secured. Very easy . I like the fact that the battery can be replaced after it has exhausted itself (expect around 5+yrs) I’ve only had them for a week, but had no spurious alarms. Another interconnected brand I had before only lasted 6 yrs instead of the quoted 10, and they were temperamental in that they would bleep for no reason.
Cant Comment on Battery Life As of Ye
These are Really Small and Easy to Fit. Once you have Pulled the Battery Tab Out of them all they Link Up in No Time & Easy to Test Function. I Bought these to replace my 10yr Life Smoke Detectors and the Manual says the Battery Lasts Around 5 yrs on these but the Replacement Batteries are Around 3.50 each so Not So Expensive. These are about the Size of a Half cut Tennis Ball So Small And Neat and the Range of the Interconnection is very Impressive.

Very Simple set up
Interconnected smoke alarms – either hard wired or wireless – will within the next year or so be mandatory in every household in Scotland. Better to get in early before demand surges towards the end of 2021, and prices inevitably rise in response.
These had very encouraging reviews, and price compared very favourably with other brands of wireless alarms. Delivered very quickly, very easy to fit and interlink. Long battery life, quite small so not intrusive. What’s not to like.
Found this 6pack of smoke detectors ideal for a big house as they work as one unit, if one unit activates it activates the rest. So when I’m in second floor bedroom can hear clearly if any smoke alarm activated on ground floor sitting room.
Very wide signal range, ideal for big houses.
It supplied with fittings and screws, no additional tools needed except screwdriver. However personally found easy to use a bit glue and no need drilling fittings.
Looks nice and it’s open, looks it will easily detects the smoke as it’s nicely open.
Came with with batteries and one battery can last upto 5years. And this is not sealed unit so once battery empty it can be replaced .
Manual clear and in plain English, it explained how and where best to install and where I shouldn’t. Just read manual before installation as I noticed it’s not ideal to put one or highest corner of sealing . All explained on manual liftleft.
Have a look to my pictures to see real size, hope this will be helpful to decide if It’s suitable for personal needs or not.

At about 20 each these networked smoke detectors are all that a person could want. Smaller than I expected (this is a good thing) and very easy to configure and fit. I had installed all three and had them working in 20 minutes. The fact that I could add to the network simply by buying more and ‘pairing’ them up is a bonus. A great product that will give 10 years on a battery and needs very little effort to fit, what’s not to like?
The three detectors arrived in a neat box with no plastic wrapping. The box includes the three detectors with batteries fitted, two screw and plastic masonry plugs for each detector and instructions. The instructions are easy to follow for the recommended places to fit the detectors, interconnection and testing. The instructions indicate up to 24 detectors can be interlinked.
For installation the back-fixing plate of the detector twists away from the unit easily, this can then be screwed to the ceiling or wall. The detector unit can then be located on the lugs of the back-fixing plate, and with a small twist connects into place.
Simple to set up and test via the silence/test button on each unit. Each detector has a red flashing led and a loud alarm when tested. One detector is located on each floor and all go off when tested. Very pleased with the product and would recommend it for the money.
