@broox @nest and it isn't something you want to skimp on.

I have the nest thermostat at home and we have 3 at work. That product is great.

right? I have 6 smoke detectors in my house. And changing the batteries isn't hard. Not sure that it solving a real problem i have.

@harper @broox I wish there were @nest sliding scale volume discounts.

is that what they recommend? Clearly should have named it Hive.

I’m putting one in and then deciding whether it’s worth more

if they're interconnected, you may have problems (or at least have to hard wire bypass the one you replace)

my house is old, I don’t have powered smoke detectors

@jeffrey @broox @nest yep. But small volumes. Lol.

@harper @broox @nest haha yeah, as in "more than one of the same thing"

@jeffrey @harper @broox @nest yeah that would be nice. bought one nest this weekend for my folks, buying the others would get pricey fast

@harper @jeffrey @nest especially when you have to re-purchase them every 5-7 years.

totally. i keep saying, "i'll wait til the next house" to get the thermostat … but i'm getting close to breaking on it. their new detectors are neat, but i'd need 6 of them (to get around my existing wired interconnects) and since they're also CO detectors, they expire after 5-7 years.

$$$

yep.
