Add-ons to your home security kit

Want inspiration for additional features to your home care system? The Intelligent Heat Alarm provides your customers with fire detection without false smoke alarms. When placed in a kitchen, smoke alarms sometimes mistake dampness from cooking for fire. The false alarms might confuse seniors and can be avoided with the Intelligent Heat Alarm. The Smart Plug Mini 2 enables relatives to turn off electrical devices remotely in case the senior has forgotten to turn off the stove. With the voice prompt function of the Smart Siren, you can record up to 50 voice messages to remind seniors of certain actions. For instance, it can remind them to take medication at a certain time.
