INSTALLATION AND SYNCHING OF 6 NEST PROTECTS Nest Protect Product Link: amzn.to/2Wtpnhh Please comment and subscribe below to help support my channel :)
Tip: Take a picture of the bar code on the back the detector. If you change your wifi name/password you will need to remove and re-add the nest detector. Easier to pull up a picture than to pull out the ladder X times.
About 2-1/2 years after initial installation, one of my Nest Protect units started to chirp and I got a low battery waring in my Nest app. I went to change the original factory-supplied L91 batteries in this unit (one of my THREE Protect products) and one of the batteries was VERY hot. The other 5 were normal temperature. I had to put the hot battery outside to let it cool off before discarding. I'm now worried about my other Protect products and will take them out of service today. I see on the forums hundreds of others had similar issues. Ever hear of or experience this yourself?
Great video! Can more than 1 phone be connected for alerts, say for renter/home owner or Husband/wife that travel independently? Do the alarms still work/go off if WiFi or cell service stops working? Thanks!
Great video, used it as a refresher when I installed all 9 of my gen 2 wired ones. What have I learned so far, Nest protect does not like to be anywhere close to a bathroom with shower. Even with the steam feature enabled, when my daughters get out of the bathroom with the fan on, it still goes off every time. I did notice the firmware is from 2021 on my units but for some reason they won't update. If I can't get this fixed, I guess disable 1 out of 9. Kind of defeats the purpose but what are you going to do?
Does anyone know if Google is abandoning the Nest products? I bought a 2nd generation Nest Protect (wired) and it is not supported by Google Home or the newest Google Hubs with video.
Great video. Thanks for the info. I'm getting ready to install 8 Nest units in a new home that doesn't yet have wifi. But the Nests need to be installed so we can get the Certificate of Occupancy. Can I set up (program) the Nests in my rental (where I have wifi) and then bring them to my new home and get them installed there? Will I have to redo anything once my new home has wifi? Many thanks.
Great info on this,quick question, do I need to have any nest products or I can just buy the detectors and use them just out of the box? I asked since I don't have a nest thermostat or cameras. Thank you.
The new system would also give consumers more control about what their money 💰 will do for the economy if their savings rate goes below ⬇️ their limit or they can be cut
I don't know why, but my Nest setup did NOT have an option for it to say "basement." The only option that was close to it was "Cellar," so I was forced to choose that. Any idea why??
I got my first one to connect to the network on the 2nd try. The other 2 units would NOT connect (All wired units). I've tried about 40 times each so far.. I tried all the typical troubleshooting but no success yet. I wonder if once the first one is connected, disable it so the second unit THINKS its the first unit. Thats the only thing I can think of at this point. But on your video, one unit connects to the previous unit.
The nest app supports 18 devices per home. You can have 3 homes (18*3 = 54 devices) with a nest based sign in. A google sign in will let you create 5 homes (18*5 = 90). I believe your only option is to sign up through google these days, so the answer to your question is 90. You can also create another google account with a different email address allowing you to add the remaining 10. You could possibly relate the different areas of the resort to the “homes” you create in the app.
I cannot get my nest protect device to recognize my Wi-Fi or my nest-#### Wi-Fi I don’t know if It is working. My Nest thermostat and camera shows in nest App and Google home! But not protect after many attempts
Justin Montague Ha! I had fun making that one. I almost done with a mini split install that has some dog antics included. Stay tuned :) thanks for the sub!
When all your old detectors were chirping like why did they have problems. I have first alert and the one in my room is so chirpy and old, its old to the point where the sound was blown
hardwired wires they used to power up all the smoke alarms if the power goes out then the fire alarm batteries will be battery back up so they will be still working in case of a smoke or fire in the house and this will still work while battery operated
If your Wifi signal dies and there is a fire in your garage 50' away from your house will the other nest detectors in the house chirp? If so what technology is used to do this?
