Wireless Siren Speaker capable of relaying Voice Prompts

@emily_s​ I too have this same request. In my vivant system , they do not have a speaker that I can put by my bed that only supports Chimes and announcements from the base station. I could see where you could get caught up and trying to do two way conversation , but in reality The speaker information coming from the base station is all that we really need for now Otherwise we have to buy a second base station.And I don't even know if that will work with two bay stations We need a stripped down version of a base station that supports anything coming from these bay stations speak This is an easy do , and it would be very helpful to put By the bedside. I'm looking for your feedback and your comments on this. I'm also interested in any responses.You've got back from text designers On this request.

Putting a panic button on the top of this device would be very helpful and would make sense.

@emily_s​ Does the system allow 2 Base stations? The base station should have a panic button on the top if it's bedside.

@tim80a3a6​ Unfortunately you cannot have more than one Base Station with a single system. It helps to think of the Base Station at the system itself, and all of the other devices communicate to it. 

The Wireless Siren as it's designed today is unable to relay the Base Station's voice prompts, so we would need to create a new device instead. But this product request has been submitted to our devs. If/when is is taken into development, we will post an official update in this thread. 

Yes for sure

Please, please, please create auxiliary speakers so we can hear voice prompts from the Base Station. Even with the Base Station set to the loudest level you cannot hear them in different rooms or levels in the house. Would think this is a number one priority for safety to the home owners. 

Hi @sgw, 

Thank you for this suggestion! The Extra Siren currently does not sound the Base Station's voice prompts, but we will forward this suggestion to our dev team for their consideration.

In the meantime, you can already get notifications of alarms and other events wherever you are, through Push Notifications and Smart Alerts!

We have also submitted the request for more PINs to them. When we have any updates, we'll let everyone know in this thread. 

@emily_s​ if I turn voice prompts off (ie. Entry sensor open) and just have the tone alert…. Would to hear that through an extra siren or just an alarm?

@emily_s​ any updates on this? I just signed up with SimpliSafe and the lack of volume on the base is making me want to switch to a different system. My home is not large and I cannot hear alerts or the doorbell from by bedroom with the door shut. 

@randapandabear​ at this time, this feature request has been submitted, but is currently not in development.

We do have a Wireless Siren available, which can relay sirens from an actual alarm, as well as Entry Chimes. But it isn't able to relay chimes from the doorbell. Currently the only options are the notification from the SimpliSafe app, and of course the actual chime from your wired doorbell system.

@KB2730​ It's helpful to think of the Base Station as the SimpliSafe system, and all of your devices communicate to it. Because of this, each system can only have one Base Station.

Hi @rrjak, 

We do currently offer the Wireless Siren, which sounds the Base Station's siren, Entry/Exit Delay countdown, and Entry Sensor chimes, but it cannot relay the Base Station's voice prompts. We'll send this idea to our dev team for their consideration. Thank you for the suggestion!
