Can I just plug this into an existing base for a KIDDE photoelectric smoke alarm model PE120 and it should work?

Not sure about the PE120.... Best thing to do us call Kidde. They were very helpful.

i'm pretty sure you can. i've replaced a few KIDDES with later models and they all seem to work just fine.

From my experience, yes. The i1206 specs indicate "Up to 24 Kidde devices" can be interconnected. I have different models of Kidde products interconnected (CO, Smoke - ionization and photo electric) throughout my home at all levels. When one goes off, they all go off. Bob.

I answered this several weeks ago, and I just checked the site and for some reason Amazon didn't post it; their bad! All of my smoke alarms were hard wired as per code. But if the 9v back up battery in one died, all of the alarms went off; I was up all night one night. Anyway, my old ones were not Kidde, but the Kidde replacements fit perfectly.Go to: www.kidde.com and find their Customer Support 800 #. They were very helpful when I called them. Good luck, and I am sorry my first answer was not posted; I have no idea what happened. navydoc

Yes.As Smokeydog said you will need to swap the leads around as described in the manual.

The new base comes with the new smoke detector.You will want to use it because if you are replacing the old one that base willmost likely be discolored.

Looks like the same but check with the manufacturer of what you are trying to replace it with and they can tell you. Mine was for a burglar alarm and they said that it was fine.

I'm not sure about how it will work with that specific model, but this is a simple two wire switch. So, if your current unit has the two wires coming into it, this should work for you.

If you are going through Alarm.com or one of their dealers you should be able to. That's what I have and it works great.

It's been my experience that any of these round detectors will work for any other model. At most, you will need to replace the plug that is connected to the wires coming out of the wiring safety box = the (usually octogonal) metal or hard plastic container in which the wires for the device become available. That's simple to do, just re-use the screw caps that are already there!

As long as you have the two terminals dedicated for fire/smoke alarms it should work fine. Installed a dozen of these with a Vista 50p and they worked perfectly.

the 2 old units I replaced were Lifesaver Model 1255 - I think most units are standardized to communicate over the 3rd wire so all alarms connected together sound when any one goes off. If you don't require that feature, I think any standard 2 wire unit can replace any other. See this link to help in deciding if you want photo or ion (or the combo unit I bought) https://www.nfpa.org/safety-information/for-consumers/fire-and-safety-equipment/smoke-alarms/ionization-vs-photoelectric

I would imagine it will work. It takes 12 volts DC on two wires and two other wires for alarm contact. Pretty standard alarm configuration.

I don't have that unit but if it has regular hook ups for the electrodes it should work.

I am not sure what usi stands for. If your's is already wired for 110 v this smoke and fire detector comes with its own new mounting plate and wire harness which you might have to change but it should work. The one we replaced plugged into the old wire harness.

If I were you, I'd contact Kidde customer service: 1-800-880-6788 They should have a "this is compatible with this" listing of their products.

Yes check the picture good you might be able to hook the plug right into the old one I was able to do that. Good Luck

I have electric wires already installed to make all alarms be on same circuit.(AND uses battery back up) Is there a combination smoke /CO detecting alarm made for this?
