  1. No incident, no one hurt

    Made Nov 22, 2023, sent to the company Dec 4, 2023, published by CPSC Dec 18, 2023

    The product, in the report: The window/door sensor is a two piece white rectangle (1 part is about 1”x3/4”, 2 part is about 1/4” x1”). There is a small blue light that is illuminated upon activation (open/close) on the larger white part.

    The simplisafe security system door and window sensors are very easily accessible for button batteries to be exposed. My 3 year old son was in his room where we have security window sensors installed and I am not sure if he was able to get it uninstalled or if installation failed, but he was able to exposed the button battery with ease. Installation for this produce includes either sticky command strip material, or small screws that hold the plate in place, but the battery is still able to be exposed with a simple slide up motion. No injuries were caused but I am very concerned that if I did not intervene fast enough, he could have ingested the button battery and had fatal consequences.
