Using POPP Smoke detector

I would like to check if anyone has successfully added the POPE004001 Zwave-plus smokedetectors?
Productlink: http://www.popp.eu/products/sensors/smoke-sensor/

These smokedetectors can be connected to 220-230V by adding an external powersupply:
Productlink: http://www.popp.eu/products/accessories/external-power-supply/

If these are supported by Homey, they would be a very welcome replacement for my current "dumb" smokedetectors, since I had an email conversation with POPP support the last few days in which they confirmed that when the additional powersupply is added, and then included in the Zwave network, they will support Zwave routing, I doublechecked with them.

I think that anyone having Zwave range issues would be able to benefit from this, when the product is supported I will order 3 of these(although they are not really cheap...)

    Check the app store there is a Popp app from @mruiter who can help you with it :) 
  • Thanks for the tip lubbertkramer!
    (unfortunately these detectors are not on the list / in his app yet)
  • I Have added these smoke detector sirens to the test version on my github.
    Its not in the appstore yet because i dont have these and i can not test them myself.

    You could sideload / install the latest version of the app from my github and let me know if they work.

  • Awesome @mruiter ,I am going to give this a try, as soon as they arrive  :)
  • When something doesnt work like expected whe can debug and finetune it.

  • i added the popp smoke detector with the app of @mruiter
     and it was successsfully included and recordnized.
  • Thanks for the good news @mruiter and @phil_s

    @phil_s May I ask, are you also using mains power(230V power supply) or are yours battery powered?
  • only battery powerd, sorry
  •  Thanks for the terugkoppeling :D
    Ill push the app update the store then
  • @mruiter
    You can turn on/off the smoke sensor? Or is that only the alarm test, since it is now grayed out
  • Its also a siren ;)
  • it is the alarm sirene that is  as seperate option . so i can built a alarm system with the smoke detector and motion sensor or door sensors
  • @mruiter Yesterday I installed all Popp smokedetectors, hardwired to 230V, while intially they had some problems being included in the Zwave network, they are now working great:


    Thanks a lot for your awesome work!
  • Youre welcome, thank you for also confirming that it works.
    Its kinda a shot in the dark to make the driver support without having the device myself.

    I already have a new version in github and pending in appstore.
    Added support for the PoPP Door Strike Control.

    If theres anyone online that had one , please test it for me
