Fire Safety: Five Steps to a Safer Home

Thousands of fires occur every year and sometimes they are fatal. Fires are serious whether they are major or minor. When a fire occurs, a lot of damage can take place. Read on for five simple safety tips you can follow to keep you, your family, and pets safe.

1. Install Smoke Detectors

Install smoke detectors and make sure the batteries are always charged or changed on a regular schedule. Many deaths in fire occur due to smoke detectors not be installed or missing batteries. When it is time to change the batteries in a Xiaomi smart Fire Alarm, you will hear a few beeps every few minutes. Instead of removing the batteries because the low battery alert is annoying, change the batteries right then. Do not wait.

2. Do Not Attempt to Hide

A lot of people, even adults attempt to hide when a fire occurs. Hiding is one of the worst things you can do when a fire occurs. Some people freeze because they are afraid and are not able to collect their thoughts. Fire and smoke can reach every part of a residence, business or another establishment, so hiding is not a good idea. Instead of hiding, go outside immediately.

3. Escaping a Fire

You may not be able to escape a fire by simply walking out of the front, back or side door. In some situations, you will need to crawl on your hands and knees to get out of the home or business. When a fire occurs, it is easier to breathe when you are low to the ground.

4. Stop, Drop, and Roll

In the event your clothes catch fire, immediately stop, drop, and roll until the fire is completely out. Scream out for help and go to a fire extinguisher if you have one. When your clothes are on fire, never run because it causes the fire to burn faster.

5. Choose a Meeting Place

Before a fire ever occurs, you need to pick a place to meet. Everyone in the family needs to be aware of the meeting place and the place you choose to meet needs to be out of the way of the burning home or facility. You may want to have accessories such as flashlights and whistles to help you find one another.

Xiaomi Smart Robot Vacuum Cleaner New Generation: Xiaomi's New 2-in-1 Vacuum Robot

Xiaomi is definitely a manufacturer that you can not stop! After making a cardboard with its robot vacuum cleaner Xiaomi now become a reference thanks to its excellent value for money, the Chinese manufacturer gives the cover by announcing there are a few days a new version even more accomplished, soberly baptized Xiaomi Smart New Generation Robot Vacuum Cleaner. This model was designed by the company Roborock, and launched via a crowdfunding campaign, whose objectives were achieved in less than 3min30!

Aesthetically, this new model is very close to what we already knew, with a beautiful white design, purified. The laser sensor, to map the room, is found a little more in the center. It is also a little higher to better map the room but remains in very reasonable dimensions.

Below, always a central brush and a lateral one. We regret not having a second side brush.

The main novelty that will be noticed is its ability to wash floors, thanks to a MOP and a water tank.

It is now possible to install under the Xiaomi mi robot vacuum cleaner New Generation a water tank whose content will be slowly injected on a mini mop and re-sucked. 13 sensors have been added to optimize this mode. Thus, the suction power is automatically modulated.

Note a tank a little larger, and the ability to wash the filter, which will mean savings on maintenance. If a carpet is detected, the suction power will be increased automatically.

The New Generation Xiaomi Smart Robot Vacuum Cleaner will be able to more easily pass door sills up to 2 cm (against 1.5 previously) through a new system of wheel damper. So nothing should resist him :)

The suction power has been increased up to 2000Pa against 1800 previously. It competes with conventional vacuum cleaners.

The battery does not change, with a 5200 mAh model. It is announced 2:30 cleaning or about 250 m² possible before returning to the charging base.

Its mapping system is still improving.

The map is now so precise that it is possible to plan the cleaning of a particular area. The map becomes interactive with the possibility of drawing on this one virtual wall, with a cleaning schedule, as announced by Neato on its latest model!

If you ask Xiaomi New Generation Smart Robot Vacuum Cleaner to go clean a particular place, it will know exactly where to go to get there:

This Xiaomi Smart New Generation Robotic Vacuum Cleaner, therefore, comes with many improvements, more or less important, but that still push up the robot to the very high end. As usual, however, Xiaomi does not explode rates: this new Xiaomi Smart Robot Vacuum Cleaner New Generation will certainly be more expensive than his little brother but is available at around 349 € (for example at our partner Banggood), this new model will remain an excellent value for money given the features.

The question will be whether to buy it? To validate its performances, it will, of course, be necessary to wait for a real test in the situation. I will offer you one of them as soon as the Xiaomi Smart New Generation Vacuum Cleaner will be available.

Then, the MOP function may not be necessary for everyone. In this case, the first version will suffice, especially as the price announced, this new model is still double the price, the first version regularly running around 349 € at the moment. This is the one I currently own, and even Madame is happy. Plus, compatible with Jeedomtoday is the best model I've had. It remains to be seen if the new version will also be appreciated, hoping that the API does not change too much for integration into our home systems.
