The second generation of the Nest Protects brings new ideas to the table, as well delivering improvements in performance. For starters the device has been made much more compact. It has a much rounder shape, giving it a much more futuristic and unique look. Its outer shell has also been revitalised, meaning insects and dirt have been banished from its interior. When you break open its case, you’ll find six sensors, each one designed for a particular purpose.Of course, the focus is on fire protection, whereby the Nest Protect can monitor both light and heavy fires. A temperature, smoke and a carbon monoxide detector make sure your home is save. This second generation of the device has also been fitted out with some soft features, such as lighting up automatically at night.
This device tests itself more than 400 times a day and sends you a silent notification if something goes wrong, i. e. you will not be woken up at 4 a. m. because the battery is low. Particularly useful is the early warning system, meaning that if you just happen to overcook your dinner, it will give you a vocal warning informing you that there's smoke in the kitchen, without activating the full alarm system. Should you have more than one system in your home, the system also informs you where the smoke is coming from. As a complete package, the Nest Protect impresses as a comprehensive fire protection system. It brings with it all the expected abilities of a smoke and carbon monoxide detector, while also packing in groundbreaking features like the early warning system and the ability to distinguish between steam and smoke. For added security in your home, you can connect the Nest Protect with products such as the Nest Cam Indoor or the Nest Cam IQ.
