Prompted by recent discussion I am looking at installing a smoke alarm and I'm thinking I could have the smoke alarm shut down the battery power.
I saw a smoke alarm in an outbuilding wired to a siren once, to alert the main house. It was from the 80's and I can't remember the power source. I think smoke alarm was battery and siren was mains power or mains power adapter.
Does anyone know of a common form of smoke detector that would provide a signal relay of some sort? I could use dry contact, 12v, 120v, basically anything. Dead mans style / Normally Closed would be ideal, but I could reverse the signal myself if I need to.
