Lifetone Technology™, formerly known as InnovAlarm, has developed new smoke alarm technology to address a major shortcoming of current alarms that may be very important for people with mild to moderate hearing loss. Its Fire Safety Alarm Clock uses a low-frequency, 520 Hz square-wave sound pattern that Lifetone says has been independently tested and proven more effective than traditional audio or stroke smoke alarms. Jan Biang, Lifetone's Director of Product Marketing, showed me a prototype of the clock.
The Fire Safety Alarm Clock constantly monitors for signals from conventional smoke alarms. When it hears such an alarm, the Lifetone alarm starts broadcasting sounds at multiple frequencies below 3000Hz. To cut through the techspeak, what's new and important about this system is its use of low-frequency sound. A study has shown that low-frequency sound will wake certain individuals with hearing loss who might not be awakened by strobe lights or the sound broadcast by common smoke detectors. A Lifetone HL™ Bedside Fire Alarm and Clock will listen for these common smoke detectors and alert you with low-frequency sound if they go off. This type of alarm is also reputed to be helpful for seniors, children, deep sleepers and mildly intoxicated individuals, all of whom can be difficult to wake.
