Kidde Quick Connect Smoke Detector Adapter Plug, Smoke Alarm Wiring Harness, Compatible with Kidde Hardwired Smoke, Carbon Monoxide, & Combination Smoke & Carbon Monoxide Detectors

For whatever reason$, Kidde changed up the wiring harnesses and connectors on their newer hardwired detectors so if you are replacing existing hardwire Kidde detectors that have reached end of life, you either need to re-wire them with the new stuff (provided with the detectors) or make it super-easy on yourself by buying one of these adapters for each detector you are replacing. These cost less than $5 bucks at h*me d*pot but good luck finding them in stock. for a ~55% premium (I paid $7.77 per) I had them from Amazon in less than 2 days. Unless you have absolutely no idea what you're doing (no judgment here!), changing out the wiring harness DIY is a very doable job, but unless you're extremely quick the time savings these provided were well worth $7.77 a pop. And if you don't know what you're doing with electricity (again, no judgement here) you'll essentially eliminate any risk of shock/electrocution using these in lieu of rewiring, again well worth it at under $8 per detector. It took me about a minute to swap out each detector using these adaptors and I didn't have to worry about screwing up...to remove the old harness and rewire the new probably would have taken me about 10 minutes per detector conservatively, not counting cussing at dropped tools and wiring nuts, the annoyance of having to cut power for a while, etc. If you can afford it and/or value your time at more than 50 cents per minute or so, save yourself the headache and buy these. And if you are considering hiring an electrician to wire some new Kidde detectors for you to replace your old ones, this will save you a ton of money and I promise it's easy enough to do yourself. Tested all 7 smoke detectors in my home after installing with these adapters and they worked as expected including interconnection of alarms. Knocked out a job I had been putting off for 2 weeks in less than 20 minutes and enjoyed the rest of the weekend with no chirping (both from the old alarms or from other members of my household annoyed I hadn't replaced them yet).

Absolute life saver. Very easy to connect new replacement model to the older models wiring connection.

No rewiring needed. just attach it and it works. did it to my 2016 kidde to a new Kidde code one. super!

These adapter plug worked very well for my new kindle smoke detector. It was easy to installed.

Quick and easy to use since Kidde discontinued the old plug style. I didn’t want to rewire, so this adapter made that unnecessary. I do hate that they changed the design and force people to buy these adapters. I think they should be included with the package. -1 star for corporate greed :)

Great connection adapter preventing removal of wires. Fast and easy connect with Kidde Smoke detector. No problems or issues.

The Kidde Quick Connect Smoke Detector Adapter Plug is a must-have for anyone upgrading or replacing their smoke detectors. It makes the installation process incredibly easy by allowing you to quickly connect your hardwired smoke or carbon monoxide detector without the hassle of complicated wiring. The adapter plug is compatible with Kidde smoke alarms, carbon monoxide detectors, and combination units, providing versatility for different safety needs. The design is simple yet effective, and it ensures a secure connection for reliable performance. I love how much time and effort it saves during installation, especially when compared to traditional wiring methods. It’s durable and well-made, so I feel confident in its long-lasting use. Overall, this adapter plug is a game changer for quick and safe smoke detector installations.

Exactly as described. The connector fits my Kidde smoke detector perfectly. You can either rewire using the wires that come with the detector or use this inexpensive connector as a simple and convenient alternative.

Worked great, no need to rewire, just plug in and install.

Simple to use and plugs straight into new detector from 15-year old wiring. Let's hope that the detector never goes off unless the battery needs replacement.

As advertised. Did the job to hook up the different style of connection. Should have bought the two pack as the detectors I bought come in twos as well.

Did what it needed to do for attaching to older Kidde connector.

Product worked exactly as it should have.
