The new model is available in both wired and battery-equipped versions, and intended to provide more information than a regular alarm, with voice alerts that explain what caused a problem — fire or carbon monoxide — and where it’s happening. Multiple Onelink alarms can trigger each other through a Bluetooth mesh network.

HomeKit compatibility allows notifications through Apple’s Home app, and the option of creating special emergency automations. In the case of a fire, for example, a Onelink could automatically open smartlocks, turn on lights, and disengage a furnace.
