Shelly Plus Smoke Detector

A battery smoke alarm that joins your van's Wi-Fi. Sensa shows whether it has detected smoke, and the detector sounds its own siren as it would without Sensa.

How it connects​

It connects over Wi-Fi, so it needs to be on your van's network before you add it.

  • Turn the device password off in the Shelly app. Sensa cannot add a Shelly that asks for a password.
  • Give it a fixed address on your router, so it can still be found if the router hands out addresses again.

Add to Sensa Nomad​

The detector sleeps most of the time to save its battery, and Sensa cannot find it while it is asleep. Press its test button to wake it, then straight away open Settings, choose the Devices tab, press Scan, tick it under Discovered and press Add Selected Devices.

See Adding devices for more.

What you see​

A tile on the Habitation Security tab reading Smoke or Clear, turning red when it detects smoke.

Good to know​

  • There is no smoke instinct yet, so Sensa does not raise an alarm of its own. See Security instincts.
  • This model carries the Unverified label in the Devices list. See Supported devices for what that means.
