The Signal One Vocal Smoke Alarm not only detects smoke, but it uses an innovative method to alert children. This Alarm supplements the high-pitched beeps of conventional alarms with spoken instructions recorded by parents or caregivers.
Conventional smoke alarms have two limitations. Firstly, they do not always awaken children. Secondly, they give no specific instructions about what to do. The Signal One Vocal Alarm's method of recording a parent's voice addresses both of these problems.
Studies have shown that a familiar voice is 99% effective in waking children, as opposed to the 57% effectiveness of a standard beeping alarm. And the Signal One Vocal Alarm is the only alarm that uses this method.
