The SafeAwake Fire Alarm Aid provides essential protection for deaf and hard of hearing people in the event of a fire. Once an existing T3 smoke alarm is activated, the SafeAwake alerts you by vibration with the bed shaker and loud audible alarm (T3 smoke alarm not included).

Sleep peacefully while feeling confident that you will wake up when your T3 smoke detector is activated. The SafeAwake Fire Alarm Aid works with existing smoke detectors to provide essential protection for deaf and hard of hearing people, or those who might not wake up to the standard audible alert of an ordinary smoke detector. SafeAwake is not a smoke detector. This product is only designed to work with smoke alarms that emit a T3 alarm pattern (three beeps followed by a pause). It will not work with alarms that emit a continuous tone pattern with no pauses. If you are uncertain as to which pattern your smoke alarm uses, please contact us for assistance.

Once your T3 smoke detector is activated, the SafeAwake alerts you with bed shaker, a flashing white light and a high decibel, low frequency (520Hz) alarm. This 520Hz tone has been proven to be significantly more effective at waking those with mild to severe hearing loss when compared to the standard domestic and commercial smoke alarm audible signal which currently produces a 3000Hz signal.

Features:

Versatility


The SafeAwake Fire Alarm Aid provides notification for individuals of all hearing levels The bed shaker with 9ft cord is important for waking deaf individuals or sound sleepers who are asleep in bed, while the 520Hz low frequency alarm can aid those with high frequency hearing loss. The flashing light is intended to alert while awake.

Universality


The SafeAwake responds to any US domestic or commercial smoke detector manufactured after 1996 that requires the audible signal sound to emit an intermittent pattern in a standard temporal-3 (T3) audible format).

Portability


The device can be used in any domestic or commercial sleeping room equipped with standard smoke alarms within audible range with no need for any additional new fire detection equipment or hard-wiring. The product is a small 6" x 3" patented design device that is placed at a bedside nightstand or hung on a wall adjacent to the bed.

Simplicity


The user simply plugs into any 110-volt electrical bedside outlet and inserts the bed shaker under the mattress.

Reliability


SafeAwake includes three CR-123 lithium-ion batteries to provide backup power for up to 24 hours in the event of an electrical power failure. A low battery light lets you know when the battery needs to be replaced.
