It goes without saying that having a smoke detector in your kitchen isn’t exactly the smartest thing to do, but the Smokey Remote Smoke Alarm Silencer could do wonders in houses that already have smoke alarms installed in the kitchen without having to remove batteries from them. The kitchen timer will store an XBee chip within, helping it to communicate wirelessly with the smoke alarm – whenever the alarm starts to scream, squeeze his hand for instant sounds of silence – at least until the smoke from the overcooked roast clears. When the alarm behaves itself due to you steaming instead of frying in the kitchen, Smokey doubles up as a kitchen timer, where pulling his left arm down will allow you to scroll through an hour’s worth of minutes to set.
