        Learn more by watching our Brooks EIB3016 | Photoelectric 230-volt Smoke Alarm with 10-year lithium battery back-up video.

        Brooks | Photoelectric 230-volt Smoke Alarm 230V/Lithium Battery | White Surface Mount

        The Brooks EIB3016 is a mains-powered photoelectric smoke alarm rated 230V AC with a non-removable 10-year lithium battery backup, designed to detect slow-burning fires under AS3786:2014 certification. The EIB3016 suits residential homes where hardwire or wireless interconnection of up to 12 alarms is required for comprehensive coverage.

        Households frequently replace ageing smoke alarms or upgrade single-unit installations to interconnected systems after building renovations or changes in fire safety standards. The EIB3016's photoelectric sensor minimises false alarms in kitchens and bathrooms where steam or cooking smoke is common, making it a practical choice for modern homes. Interconnection means all linked alarms activate simultaneously, alerting occupants throughout a multi-level property or larger floor plan.

        Licensed electricians specify the EIB3016 because it integrates into existing hardwire systems without requiring wireless modules, reducing jobsite complexity and material costs. The Easi-fit base allows quick installation on a standard ceiling rose, and the automatic dust compensation algorithm keeps false alarms to a minimum even in homes with dust or humidity fluctuation. For sparkies managing rental properties or specifying for multi-dwelling renovations, the SmartLINK compatibility and AudioLINK data download provide remote monitoring and troubleshooting without a site visit, supporting margin-friendly service contracts.

        Features

        • Photoelectric sensor — detects slow-burning, smouldering fires better than ionisation sensors, reducing false alarms in kitchens, bathrooms, and dusty environments.
        • 10-year non-removable lithium battery backup — battery lasts the life of the alarm; no annual battery changes required, cutting maintenance calls and warranty claims.
        • Hardwire interconnect (up to 12 devices) — standard ceiling-rose wiring connects multiple alarms; all activate together in a fire, alerting every room simultaneously.
        • Optional wireless interconnect — the EIB3000MRF module adds radio frequency backup for properties where hardwire is impractical, such as older homes or renovations with isolated zones.
        • Automatic dust compensation — the EIB3016 adjusts sensitivity as dust builds up, preventing nuisance alarms that lead to homeowners disabling alarms entirely.
        • SmartLINK compatible — integrates into smart home monitoring for remote status checks and troubleshooting via mobile app.
        • AudioLINK data download — acoustic link to the AudioLINK app retrieves alarm history, battery status, and fault logs for diagnostic and compliance record-keeping.
        • Easi-fit base — straightforward installation into existing ceiling roses, reducing labour time and site risk compared to traditional screw-fixing methods.
        • 85 dB(A) alarm at 3 metres — meets AS3786 audible alert standard; loud enough to wake occupants from typical bedroom distance.
        • Indoor use only — not weatherproof or rated for external walls, damp areas, or exposed locations; suitable for ceilings in dry internal spaces only.

        Where to use

        • Master bedrooms and sleeping areas — the EIB3016 provides early warning of fire while occupants are asleep; hardwire interconnection ensures alarms throughout the home sound together.
        • Multi-level homes and renovations — interconnect units on each floor and in hallways so a fire in the roof space or basement triggers alarms in every bedroom and living area.
        • Kitchens and open-plan living — photoelectric technology minimises false alarms from cooking steam compared to older ionisation alarms, reducing nuisance disconnections.
        • Rental properties and serviced apartments — the automatic dust compensation and low-maintenance design suit properties where tenants do not perform upkeep; the 10-year battery eliminates tenant-neglected battery changes.
        • Homes with existing hardwire conduit — the EIB3016 fits standard ceiling roses; retrofit into existing installations costs less than running new cable for battery-only alarms.
        • Properties upgrading from non-compliant or failed alarms — the EIB3016 meets current AS3786 standards and is approved for use in all Australian states and territories.

        The EIB3016 is not suitable for external ceilings, porches, garages, or damp locations. It must be installed indoors on dry ceilings only. Do not use in areas subject to condensation, spray, or direct water exposure.

        Verified Sparky Direct customer reviews: Brooks EIB3016 Photoelectric 230V Smoke Alarm (EIB3016)

        "Perfect" — L

        "Brooks alarms have very few false alarms. Recommend paying extra for quality." — Old

        "Received in good order and very fast postage. Will purchase again." — Raven

        (EIB3016)

        Yes, the EIB3016 is certified to AS3786:2014 +A1:2015 +A2:2018, the current Australian standard for smoke alarms. It is approved for use in all states and territories, including Queensland and Victoria.

        Yes, up to 12 EIB3016 alarms can be hardwired together using standard ceiling-rose wiring. When one alarm detects smoke, all connected alarms sound immediately, alerting every room simultaneously.

        The EIB3016 is mains-powered (230V AC). The 10-year non-removable lithium battery provides backup power only in the event of mains failure, providing up to 3 months of operation for wireless systems or up to 6 months for non-wireless setups.

        Photoelectric sensors, like those in the EIB3016, detect slow-burning, smouldering fires more effectively. Ionisation alarms are prone to false alarms in kitchens and bathrooms when steam or cooking smoke is present. The EIB3016's photoelectric design and automatic dust compensation reduce nuisance alarms significantly.

        The EIB3016 contains a 10-year non-removable rechargeable lithium battery that lasts the entire lifespan of the alarm. There is no need for annual battery replacement. The battery is kept charged by the mains power supply.

        The EIB3016 carries a 5-year manufacturer warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship. Installation by a licensed electrician is required for the warranty to remain valid.

        Yes, the EIB3016 can use wireless interconnection when paired with the optional EIB3000MRF SmartLINK module, allowing it to communicate with compatible Brooks alarms via radio frequency (926MHz). Hardwiring is not required if you choose the wireless option.

        The Brooks EIB3016 is available online from Sparky Direct, with Australia-wide delivery to any state or territory including regional areas. Sparky Direct is an Australian electrical wholesaler established in 2005, supplying more than 500,000 customers with transparent trade pricing.
