Featuring a 4-inch diameter, 9V battery power for uninterrupted operation during outages, and a loud 85dB alarm, it offers easy, wire-free installation and meets UL safety standards with a 3-year warranty. ## Description The Kidde Fire Sentry Smoke Detector, 9V Battery Powered Smoke Alarm, 4 Inch Compact Design, model i9040, features ionization sensor technology to help protect you and your family from the dangers of smoke and fire. Kidde strongly recommends that both ionization and photoelectric smoke alarms be installed to help ensure maximum detection.Kidde’s four-inch smoke detector is smaller in diameter giving it a discreet design perfect for each level of your house including bedrooms, guest rooms, basements, dining rooms, furnace rooms, utility rooms, and hallways.The Kidde Fire Sentry smoke detector is easy to install with no wiring required. Powered by a 9-volt battery (included) that provides reliable detection even during a power outage. This smoke alarm is equipped with a flashing red LED and will flash to indicate the smoke alarm is receiving power. A fresh battery should last for one year under normal operating conditions. Low battery alert tells you when it’s time for a new battery.The smoke alarm is operating once a fresh battery is installed and testing is complete. To ensure proper installation, the test/silence button’s first alert will electronically simulate the presence of smoke and cause the alarm to sound. When fire particles are detected, the unit sounds a loud 85db pulsating alarm until the air is cleared.The Hush® feature has the capability of temporarily desensitizing the alarm circuit for approximately 8 minutes. The smoke alarm will automatically reset after approximately 8 minutes and sound the alarm if particles are still present. The Hush feature can be used repeatedly until the air has been cleared.After 10 years, the smoke alarm will need to be disposed of and replaced. UL Certified with a 3-year limited warranty. Meets requirements of UL217, NFPA72, NFPA 101, FHA, & HUD. For questions or for more information, call the Kidde consumer hotline at 1-800-880-6788. Review: Kidde Micro Smoke Alarm 9 volt - Prompt and efficient delivery ( arrived 3 days after ordering ). Alarm is smaller but neater than expected, and is easy to install. Have only tried the alarm on "test" facility, but is quite shrill and loud for it's size. Excellent value all round. Would recommend this for flats, and average to normal house ( up to 4 bedrooms ) although a larger alarm may be needed for larger premises. Review: Kidde smoke alarm - The smoke alarm is quite neat and unobtrusive, comes with a battery and all screws and plugs needed to put up. A mounting plate is screwed to wall or ceiling then only a small twist is needed to secure main unit to mounting plate. Had 2 for a month and one went off when someone left open bathroom door after showering. Unit about 1 metre away! Then one night 3am the other went off at random without cause. There's a hush feature on these units so easy to cancel without taking battery out. Knocked off a star because of the last random going off. Only done it once in a month! I would recommend this product for the cost and peace of mind. ## Features - At only 4-inches in diameter, this is one of the smallest smoke detectors you can install in your home, RV, and mobile home - Operating on a 9-volt alkaline battery, the Kidde smoke alarm provides reliable detection of smoke or fire, even during power outages - Installation is easy, no wiring required.

If diff diameters could you give me the sizes. Thanks** A: dont know. Normal is 4 inches diameter. Size is only important if mounting new alarm on an existing back plate - they obviously need to fit. There is a 5 inch model I believe. Worst case scenario if exg back plate won't fit is remove exg backplate and fit the one that comes with the new alarm. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Kidde Micro Smoke Alarm 9 volt *by M***N on 24 December 2012* Prompt and efficient delivery ( arrived 3 days after ordering ). Alarm is smaller but neater than expected, and is easy to install. Have only tried the alarm on "test" facility, but is quite shrill and loud for it's size. Excellent value all round. Would recommend this for flats, and average to normal house ( up to 4 bedrooms ) although a larger alarm may be needed for larger premises. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Kidde smoke alarm *by I***R on 20 April 2015* The smoke alarm is quite neat and unobtrusive, comes with a battery and all screws and plugs needed to put up. A mounting plate is screwed to wall or ceiling then only a small twist is needed to secure main unit to mounting plate.

I would recommend this product for the cost and peace of mind. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Clean appearance, and good value for money *by J***8 on 12 February 2015* Simple to install and batteries seem to last and last, but when they're low, it chirps to let you know. It does not look too obtrusive either, which is good as some smoke alarms can be quite large and ugly to look at. I don't see any reason why you should be concerned as to the reliability of these, but if you are, then you could mix brands of smoke alarms around your house. I would highly recommend grabbing some if you don't have any and while you are at it, look at buying some 9v batteries off Amazon to stock up. ## Frequently Bought Together - Kidde Fire Sentry Smoke Detector, 9V Battery Powered Smoke Alarm, 4 Inch Compact Design - Kidde Carbon Monoxide Detector, Battery Powered CO Alarm with LEDs, Test-Reset Button, Low Battery Indicator, Portable - Amazon Basics 8-Pack 9V Alkaline Batteries, 5-Year Shelf Life - for Smoke/CO Detector, Electronics & Audio --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/343261067-kidde-i9040-fire-sentry-battery-operated-ionization-sensor-compact-smoke](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/343261067-kidde-i9040-fire-sentry-battery-operated-ionization-sensor-compact-smoke) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-04-23*
