I have a cabin in the forest and would like to get advanced warning of a forest fire remotely. I'm thinking about putting a battery-based Nest Protect outside under a long eave (well-protected from any sunlight or rain or wind) in hopes that it will inform me of smoke outside my home if the forest begins to burn.
I already have many detectors inside that work great, but I don't want to wait until the smoke is strong enough inside my cabin to be notified.
