Abstract
An enhanced hazard detection device has multiple sensors. A primary sensor continuously monitors for a hazard in a vicinity of the enhanced hazard detection device, and a secondary sensor can detect or measure a physical property in the vicinity of the enhanced hazard detection device. The enhanced hazard detection device can include communications circuitry to wirelessly couple the enhanced hazard detection device to a local network. A power management controller of the enhanced hazard detection device can dynamically manage usable power, where usable power for the secondary sensor and the communications circuitry is conditioned on sufficient usable power being available for the primary sensor. As such, the enhanced hazard detection device can monitor a change in usable power and, if necessary, divert usable power from most of the multiple sensors and/or the communications circuitry to the primary sensor, to maintain uninterrupted hazard detection.
