It would be great if the smoke sensors would be able to trigger an alarm as part of the security system (meaning joining the hubs to alert for intruders, for example, and ring the alert sound together with the hubs).

@brachetta Thanks for sharing your idea! It’s fantastic to see users like you thinking about enhancing the functionality of the Aqara smoke sensors. Integrating smoke sensors into the security system to trigger alarms for intruders alongside the hubs would indeed offer a more robust security solution.
Currently, Aqara’s high-security devices, like smoke detectors, are designed to notify users when personal safety might be at risk and can trigger gateway alarms by default. While they primarily focus on fire safety, your suggestion of using them for broader security purposes is intriguing.
Your feedback is invaluable, and I encourage you to share more ideas or experiences. Maybe other community members have found creative ways to set up their systems in a similar manner. Keep the ideas coming!

I am currently using another brand Zwave smoke/CO detectors and I have them set up to sound with other sirens in my system. Seems like this should be easy for Aqara to implement.
