No one should have to skimp on fire-protection for their home. Yet, shelling out $119 for the Nest Protect smart smoke detector seems just a little bit extravagant for most people. With the latest seasonal discounts on Amazon knocking 17% off Google's MSRP, buying this premium smoke detector might just be a little easier to justify.
True, some of the features of the Nest Protect might feel like overkill for a smoke alarm – in addition to fire protection, the device is also a motion-sensitive night-light. However, it's also true that the Nest Protect is extremely competent at handling potential domestic fires.
The Google Nest Protect detects smoke and carbon monoxide and lets you know where the hazard is. A Split-Spectrum Sensor means you get alerts for fast-burning and smoldering fires, and four types of alerts – a ring light, a voice warning, mobile alerts and a siren – notify you of varying levels of danger.
Having such a robust alert system coupled with the ability to hush false alarms directly from the app (or via Alexa), the Nest Protect is probably the smartest smoke detector on the market. And thanks to the discounts of the holiday season, the wired model is available for only $99 on Amazon, and $99.99 for the battery-powered option. Still a premium, but given all the bells and whistles offered by the Google Nest Protect smart smoke and CO detector, it's a great deal for the best fire protection money can buy.
