Been working on a new "fish room" build where I have lots of lights and other high powered and hot equipment like I'm sure many of us do.
It just occurred to me that it would be beneficial to have some sort of fire protection.
For example, something like a smoke alarm that could sense smoke or excess heat and shut down equipment that could maybe prevent the start of an actual fire, or at least give you a precious few seconds or minutes head start on dealing with it.
Does anything like this exist?
Would be great under a stand too.
When i had a ReefKeeper controller, I had a heater stick on and melt the socket it was plugged into.
I woke up one morning, walked out of the bedroom and smelled burning plastic. Luckily i found it when i opened the stand and saw the smoke and was able to unplug it before a fire started.
