The USI Electric USI-1204 Hardwired Ionization Smoke and Fire Alarm responds quickly to fast-flaming fires to protect your family against deadly threats in the home. Perfect for new or replacement installations, the 120-volt AC hardwired alarm is suitable for houses, apartments and mobile homes. This alarm features a convenient silencer button to temporarily quiet a non-hazardous alarm and Smart Interconnect to connect up to 18 units. The 9-volt battery (included) provides continuous protection in the event of a power outage. Ideal for replacement of existing smoke alarms, this detector features a large mounting plate for coverage of drywall impressions or old paint marks. The red LED light flashes when smoke is detected and the green LED light indicates that the power is functioning.

SMOKE DETECTOR REPLACEMENT
This was an exact replacement for detectors that were 18 years old. Just unplugged the old and then plugged in new. No rewiring needed. Didn't know smoke detectors need to be replaced after 10 years. Started going off same time every day I guess as warning going bad. Hear about yearly battery replacement, but not about smoke detector needing to be replaced. Had Fire Dept here to check out and they didn't ask about age of detectors. Maybe they don't know. Ordering and receiving merchandise was prompt.

Perfect replacement
One of my smoke detectors, from USI, failed recently. While looking at it I learned that they are supposed to be replaced every ten years but mine were 19 years old. I purchased a newer version of the same model I had and the install was pretty simple. While I now know they are to be replaced every 10 years, hoping these new ones are as robust and long lasting as the previous generation.

One point on instructions
Installed 13 in residence and rental. No issues so far. The institutions could be clarified regarding the LED indications. It states that a red light will display every 40-60 seconds indicating normal operation. I could not see this. I was informed by customer service that the red light is very brief and perhaps undetectable as the green light overpowers it. This merits mention.

Perfect replacement for USI-1208
Our old detectors in our home started to expire last month. We had the USI-1208, I wanted to ensure I didn't get knock offs with poor quality control so I avoided amazon and I wanted to be certain I got the right product that matched the bases already installed in our home. I found this product perfect. Replacement for each detector took less than a minute once out of the packaging, simply remove the old detector, plug in the new one and pop it in and twist to lock. I couldnt be more happier with how easy it was and how happy I am to know I avoided sketchy 3rd party suppliers and got it right from the manufacturer.

Replacement of Smoke Detectors
My home is approximately 9 1/2 years old and I was recommended to replace the smoke detectors. A local handyman offered to replace the six detectors for $30 each, telling me it was about a two hour job, and suggesting I supply the new smoke detectors. Fortunately, I got up on a ladder and found out I had USI detectors. I got on the USI website, found the current model replacement for my old units, ordered them, and got them in just a few days. Since I replaced USI with USI, it took me all of about 15 minutes to replace all six units by just unplugging the old unit and plugging in the new unit. No installing new base plates, no re-wiring, etc. My complements to USI for maintaining consistent design and making my replacement so quick and easy...and saving me a lot of money.

Good Product - Could Be Improved!
Best Points: Easy replacement of nine 15-year-old smoke detectors of same model, after one started late night false alarms, sending my family out into the street at 3:30AM. Simply rotate old unit, unplug, plug in new unit after removing the battery plastic sheet protector, rotate in place. Easy!!!! However - low battery alarms immediately started on four of the new units, which came with batteries. Off to the store to purchase new batteries, before my replacement task was completed. When replacing the batteries, the battery retainment door easily dislodged and was difficult to replace into proper position. This is not user friendly, especially when standing on a ladder installing batteries on high vaulted ceilings. It would not be hard to improve this feature, and tool changes in China are CHEAP and FAST - it is time to fix this problem, which was present on this model 15 years ago, and is still present today! Next - 5 of 9 units could not be tested by pushing the test button with a finger. Only by pushing HARD with a screw driver did these units indicate they were functioning. This is either a design or manufacturing margin flaw - perhaps due to poor quality control in a Chinese factory. Regardless of the cause - this problem should be fixed.

Replaced smoke alarms
My smoke alarms expired 5 years ago. They were installed when the house was built in 2004. I learned they were good for 20 years when my eye caught the tiny white print on the white plastic on the back of the alarm. I ordered the same type so I could use the same electrical connection and base. Otherwise, I would have changed them for another model that doesn't require have to remove the unit from the base in order to change the battery. The wiring gets in the way of the twist lock on the mounting bracket making it very difficult to reinstall. TIP: please make the unit expiration date more visible. My family could have been at risk for the last five years.

Pleased with purchase
I purchased 11 USI-1204HAs to replace USI1204s from 2004. I had no problem installing the units. I kept the original ceiling mounts. After cleaning the mounts with a damp rag, the color match to the new units were very close. I expected much more discoloration in the mounts after 15 years. I tested the units and they functioned as expected.

Direct replacement for what we had!
After watching a Today Show segment about smoke alarms and testing them, we tested with a smoking candle/incense all our hard-wired alarms. Two didn't work and we found that all of them had expiration dates stamped on them indicating they should have been replaced 4 years ago. These replacements plugged right into the pigtails and clipped right on the existed mounting plates.

I didnt realize smoke detectors expired
My home was built in 2004. During the recent time change, I was inspecting the batteries and saw the expiration date stamped into the detectors. After a bit of research and confirming with our fire protection company @ work, I realized I need to replace my 7 smoke detectors which were now almost 12 years old. The USI model in my home, tied into my alarm system and fire sprinklers were easily available on the USI website as a direct replacement the originals. I emailed the company about bulk pricing and although my count of 7 didn't meet bulk pricing they offered me a 15% discount. The shipping was ground and took about a week but all arrived in great condition. I replaced both the detectors and the base as the color on some had yellowed due to exposure to sunlight. Overall am very pleased with the product, website purchasing and customer service. Way to go USI!

Excellent Replacement
These fit perfectly on the existing mounts our builder installed in our house in 2002. We replaced 3 units which had expired by merely snapping the plastic wire clip into the existing wired wall mount. Easy and safe, working perfectly.

Fire Alarm with Battery Backup USI-1204HA

Perfect Fit
I bought these smoke detectors to replace some that were about 15 years old. They were hardwired without battery back up and these new ones are also hard wired but do have battery back up and they just plugged right into the original plug. I didn't have to do any wiring.

Perfect replacement
I have 8 of these detectors in my home. The existing 11 years old units had started to fail. Easy install Snapped right into place without issue and it comes with a 9V heavy duty battery.The new units fit in the base of the existing unit, so I didn't have to replace the bases. Purchased 4 of these units replacing older unit and will be purchasing a couple more. A lot cheaper than on Amazon.

Great Replacement!
I bought 7 of these to replace existing alarms in my home that was built in 2006. The manufacturer recommends changing these out every 10 years but I decided to get ahead of the game a bit after 9 years. The performance on these models has been great and I expect the same 9-10 years of work out of the new ones I just installed. Incidentally, I only needed the inner parts as the outer shell was already wired and connected from the first USI-1204HA alarms that were wired in with the house. The coloring on the outer shell has not faded over the last 9 years and the new inner parts fit beautifully and matched in color too. Very satisfied!

Fire Alarm
I have used this brand of fire alarm in the past and purchased 5 replacement alarms after installing the initial one about 7 years ago. It was nice to be able to install just the replacement and not have to re-install all the mounting brackets as well. The model number was on back order at the time I placed the order but I still received the order within a ten day period.

Smoke alarms from USI electric
I had 6 smoke alarms in my house that were 14 years old and they all connect with each other. I had one that did not quit chirping once I put a new battery in it. I did online research and found out if the alarms are too old you would have to replace them. After more research, and worrying about finding new alarms that would be compatible with my existing alarm base, I found USI Electric. They had a new alarm that would hook up with my old bases perfectly. Changed all the alarms in about 15 minutes! Very satisfied!!!
