USI 2-in-1 Hardwired Smoke & Fire Smart Alarm with 10 Year Sealed Battery & Universal Smoke Sensing Technology (MI106S)

Reviewed: 02/05/2020 by Tom Cole

Nice looking units. Come with very nice paint shield installed that is easy to remove. Only negative is I liked the mounting base on my older USI smoke detectors better. They were stronger and deflected less when tightened and the screws from standard 4 octagon box fit the plate better.

Initial quality is there

Reviewed: 01/16/2020 by Ben Christensen

Time will tell if the 10 year sealed battery will hold up, but initial installation was fairly easy and dual sensing technologies in one device, and having updated all detectors throughout the house gives me a sense of security and satisfaction! Looking forward to not having annoying low-battery chirps which inevitably go off at 2am! Happy 2020, see you in 2030 when I will replace them again... with any luck, battery technology will have evolved in this decade so the generation of 2030 products will have a sealed battery for 20+ years!

I am just installing these today so I cannot comment on false alarms or performance issues. However, I found it easy to replace my old USI hardwired units with the new units, even though I had to install the new connectors/wiring and the new mounting plate.

Nice looking and fit over the previous alarm cut-out so seamless install. Also, Universal was easy to deal with and quick delivery.

The four MI106S smoke alarms that I purchased were to replace four, 20 year old USI products. They arrived in great shape and were a breeze to install. The best part was working with their Customer Service department. The young lady offered her recommendation for the replacement units. She responded promptly to my emails to USI. Thanks !

We replaced our detectors as we were tired of the batteries needing replacement in the middle of the night. The customer service representative was very helpful helping me figure out which unit to buy. Really can't comment on how they work as we haven't had any type of fire.

These appear to fit the bill at better cost than a retail store. Have been using them in client's homes - only caution is to pull activation tab carefully to ensure full activation

I replaced 7 detectors and it could have been easier. I had to change out the old mounting brackets to the new ones included, which was super easy two screws. The new detectors plugged right in and I was done in no time. Just follow the instructions. It was a pleasure to not have to deal with any annoying beeping during the replacement process.

Replacements for our 10 year old plus USI units were installed simply by our local fire department who took note of the USI products to recommend to others - nice recognition.

I needed to replace 7 units that had expired over 10 years. I asked Michelle what new units were available that were compatible with the old units. Michelle gave me several options and the new units I choose could use the same plug from the old units. So installing each new unit took about 2 minutes for each unit. I spent more time moving the ladder than it took to install them. Michelle was very quick to respond to my email. I choose units that have a 10 year sealed battery, so now I don't have to change batteries every 6 months.

The whole experience was top notch. We had excellent support electronically with Michele Metcalf. She recommended what to get, it came quickly, without trouble. There was even a defective one. When we pulled the tab, it didn't alarm. We were told to send back and another would be sent. Top notch service and will work again with this company when needed. It is much appreciated to have wonderful customer service. You don't get that too often these days. :
