        PSA | Lifesaver Photoelectric Smoke Alarm 240V | 10-Year Rechargeable Lithium Backup

        The PSA LIF6800RL is a 240V mains-powered photoelectric smoke alarm with a 10-year rechargeable lithium battery backup, built for surface mounting on a ceiling or wall. The LIF6800RL uses a photoelectric Advance sensor to detect smouldering fires early and can run standalone or interconnect with up to 24 compatible units. It is ActivFire listed and complies with AS 3786:2014, backed by a 10-year warranty.

        Mains-powered smoke alarms reach end of life near the ten-year mark, and a failing or chirping unit needs a quick replacement. The LIF6800RL swaps onto a compatible existing base and runs on 240V mains power with a 10-year rechargeable lithium backup. Protection continues through outages. Its photoelectric Advance sensor and anti-static chamber cut the dust and insect false alarms that older detectors trigger.

        For sparkies handling smoke alarm compliance work, the LIF6800RL is a fast swap on compatible bases and interconnects up to 24 units so an entire home alerts together. The keen price point keeps quoted upgrade jobs sharp against dearer brands, and the fixed 10-year battery removes return visits for battery changes. Interconnected units sound in sync, which reduces callbacks over nuisance triggers.

        Features

        • 240V mains powered — the LIF6800RL runs hardwired on 240V AC 50Hz, drawing 10mA maximum per alarm for continuous operation.
        • 10-year rechargeable lithium backup — the sealed non-replaceable battery keeps the alarm active through mains outages for its full service life.
        • Photoelectric Advance sensor — detects slow-smouldering smoke early and reduces the sensitivity that causes nuisance activations.
        • Interconnects up to 24 units — a hardwired link sounds every connected alarm when one unit detects smoke, so the whole home alerts together.
        • Anti-static chamber and bug screen — the conductive smoke chamber repels dust and a fine mesh keeps insects out, cutting false alarms.
        • 85dBA sounder at 3 metres — the ISO 8201 T3 alarm pattern (three long beeps) meets residential audibility levels.
        • Test and hush functions — hush silences the alarm for 9 minutes, dense smoke overrides hush, and low-battery beeping can be silenced for 8 hours.
        • Wireless upgrade path — supports RF wireless interlink and remote test and hush when fitted to an optional wireless baseplate, sold separately.
        • Surface-mount design — the LIF6800RL mounts to a ceiling or wall base and wires through 9V, Active, Switch, Neutral and Loop terminals.
        • ActivFire listed — approved to AS 3786:2014, RCM marked and SAI Global listed for Australian residential use.
        • Licensed installation required — the LIF6800RL is hardwired to 240V mains and must be installed by a licensed electrical contractor, not as a plug-in unit.
        • Rated operating range — designed for 0 to 40 degrees C and up to 93% relative humidity, non-condensing, so it is not suited to exposed or high-humidity areas.

        Where to use

        • Residential homes and apartments — the LIF6800RL provides long-term mains-powered fire cover across owner-occupied and tenanted dwellings.
        • New builds and alarm upgrades — suits construction and renovation work that specifies 240V hardwired photoelectric alarms.
        • Bedrooms, hallways and living areas — mounts in the sleeping and circulation zones where early smoke detection matters most.
        • Whole-home interconnected systems — up to 24 LIF6800RL units link so a fire in one room sounds every alarm in the house.
        • End-of-life replacements — swaps in for ageing mains alarms on compatible existing bases without full rewiring.
        • Rental compliance upgrades — helps landlords meet mains-powered, interconnected smoke alarm obligations at turnover.

        The LIF6800RL is an indoor photoelectric smoke alarm and is not rated for outdoor, damp, or exposed locations. It operates within 0 to 40 degrees C and is not a heat or carbon monoxide alarm, so it should not be relied on for temperature-rise or CO detection.

        Verified Sparky Direct customer reviews: PSA LIF6800RL 240V Photoelectric Smoke Alarm (LIF6800RL)

        "Easy to install and interconnect with other PSA alarms." — Andy

        "Great product at a competitive price." — Kerrin

        "Great, easy to install on our existing LIF base so easy." — Chris

        (LIF6800RL)

        It is 240V mains powered and includes a 10-year rechargeable lithium battery backup for operation during power outages.

        Yes. It can be interconnected with up to 24 compatible PSA Lifesaver alarms for whole-of-home alerting.

        Yes. It includes test and hush buttons for routine testing and temporary silencing during non-emergency situations.

        The anti-static smoke chamber and bug screen help reduce false alarms caused by dust and insects.

        Yes. It can be upgraded for wireless interconnection when used with the LIF6000WB wireless baseplate and optional controller.

        Yes. Sparky Direct stocks the PSA Lifesaver LIF6800RL with fast dispatch and fast Australia-wide delivery.

        The LIF6800RL is ActivFire listed, complies with AS 3786:2014, and is RCM marked and SAI Global listed. It suits residential installations calling for a mains-powered photoelectric alarm. Check your state or territory smoke alarm legislation for placement and interconnection requirements before installing.

        The LIF6800RL is hardwired to 240V mains and must be installed by a licensed electrical contractor. The alarm mounts to a ceiling or wall base and wires through 9V, Active, Switch, Neutral and Loop terminals. Swapping a same-series alarm onto an existing compatible base still requires a licensed installer for mains work.

        The LIF6800RL interconnects with up to 24 compatible PSA Lifesaver 6000 series alarms over a hardwired link, so one triggered unit sounds every connected alarm. When smoke is detected, only the initiating unit's red LED flashes, which helps identify where the alarm started.

        The LIF6800RL carries a sealed 10-year rechargeable lithium backup battery that is non-replaceable and lasts the unit's service life. The LIF6800 uses a replaceable 9V backup battery instead. Both are 240V photoelectric alarms, but the LIF6800RL removes scheduled battery changes over its lifespan.

        Yes. Fitted to the optional PSA LIF6000WB wireless RF baseplate, the alarm interlinks wirelessly, and an optional wireless controller adds remote test and hush. The baseplate and controller are sold separately. Standard hardwired interconnection between units needs no extra parts.

        The sealed lithium backup battery and the alarm are rated for a 10-year service life, after which the whole unit is replaced. PSA covers it with a 10-year warranty for both domestic and commercial use, claimed on a return-to-Sparky-Direct basis.

        The LIF6800RL is an indoor photoelectric smoke alarm rated for 0 to 40 degrees C and up to 93% humidity, non-condensing. The alarm is not built for outdoor, damp, or exposed locations, and it is not a heat or carbon monoxide alarm. Mount it in dry indoor bedrooms, hallways and living areas.

        The PSA LIF6800RL 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.
