Deaf alarm systems

[DeafManiac]

I already have 3 smoke and carbon monoxide detector with strobe lights installed in my motorhome. Eventually, I'll have doorbell strobe light installed. All that aside, are there propane detector with strobe lights installation? I am hard of hearing and will be living in the motorhome full time soon.

This is a plug & play detector that has RED/Yellow/Green light......but it requires 120VAC (plugs into an outlet)
Basically a 'home unit'

But if one has an inverter and that inverter fed an outlet that was installed down low on a easily visible wall....

No real LP Detector for Deaf.

That is something that needs to be addressed. That's a pretty serious safety issue. If something goes wrong and I'm asleep... I probably wouldn't noticed! What can we do about that?

Petition the MFG of Smoke/CO/LP Detectors for a LP Detector with strobe light

LP Detectors are wired directly to RV battery so they are functional during all situations......or least they should be.
When senor detects propane it BEEPS.....that DC out put to activate beep should be able to turn on a Strobe Light feature.

Same for a home unit.

There are now Z-Wave and Zigbee sensors for Co2 and Carbon Monoxide and propane.
You can use a Z-Wave relay to trigger a vibration motor to wake you up.
Old thread but didn't see many good solutions.
