Overview
Not a single battery-only alarm, the Kidde 20SAR is a three-pack of photoelectric smoke detectors powered from the home supply. They link to one another by wire, show status with LED lights and sound an audible alarm.
Buying three at once covers several rooms, and the interconnect feature lets one alarm trigger the others. Hookup relies on home wiring, so confirm your electrical setup first.
Who it's for
Households replacing or adding hardwired alarms in bedrooms and hallways. Anyone without access to home wiring should choose a different type.

Performance notes
A photoelectric sensor responds to smoke particles scattering light in its chamber, and interconnect wiring passes the alarm to every unit so all sound together. LED lights show status, and the audible horn sets how well it is heard through a home.
