Smoke Detectors
I used to think all smoke detectors were the same. I ran across this story today and found out that there are two types.

The dual type Kidde is $17.66 at Amazon.

There are two basic types of detectors: ionization and photoelectric. Ionization models are quicker to spot flaming fires. Photoelectric models react more quickly to smoldering fires, the kind caused by a cigarette on the couch or an overloaded extension cord. These smoldering fires produce toxic gases that can kill people sleeping in the house before there are any flames.
