Hi
I'm looking for a 12volt smoke alarm to install in my garage that I can link back to my house alarm control panel. I found one at TLC Direct but I noticed the specification states a minimum ambient temperature of 4C. A bit of googling suggests that low temperatures are a problem with smoke alarms, primarily relating to battery voltage drop in cold conditions. I'm assuming that if my detector is powered from my alarm panel then there won't be any issues in this area. But are there detection issues at low temperatures? Anyone got a working setup in their garage?
Thanks
