Replacement for Ei156 Mains Powered Smoke Alarm

The Ei156 mains powered smoke alarm has now been discontinued by the manufacturer. The design of the base has also been changed so a whole new alarm and mount is required. Original manufacturer Ei Electronics (Aico) recommends the new Ei3016 optical smoke alarm as the most suitable replacement.

The Ei3016 can interlink with any Ei150 series alarms remaining in your system. Like the Ei156 it replaces, the Ei3016 features a lithium back-up battery and optical sensor technology that is less prone to false alarms. Because the base and connector plug for the Ei150 series are no longer used, a replacement base is included with your new alarm that will need to be fitted by an electrician using your existing wiring.
