The Alecto SM11 is a specialized fire safety device known for its ultra-slim design and long-lasting 10-year battery life. This stand-alone smoke detector is a staple in the European consumer electronics market, designed for easy residential installation without the need for specialized tools.

Originally founded in the Netherlands, Alecto has grown into a major functional consumer electronics brand under the umbrella of Hesdo BV. The brand focuses on safety, communication, and home automation products. While the engineering and design are rooted in Dutch expertise, manufacturing is primarily centered in China to leverage global supply chain efficiencies. Following a series of mergers, the ultimate owner is now Shobi BV (under the Commaxx Group), a major European distributor of consumer brands, headquartered in 's-Hertogenbosch.
