Your intelligent Torch sensor measures thermal, visible and chemical signs of fire
Solar panel
Recharges internal batteries with no outside power. The Torch device can continue detecting fires, whether during the day or at nighttime.
Infrared cameras
Continuously monitor and dynamically analyze heat signatures in the surrounding area, allowing the algorithm to intelligently discern burning material from potential false positives.




Intelligent technology reveals a high - probability of fire on your property.

Frequently asked questions
What’s the difference between Torch and a smoke detector?
We are in fact inspired by the concept of indoor smoke detectors! We’re excited to finally detect outdoor fires as early and confidently as we do indoors. However, Torch is much more than a smoke detector: each sensor is equipped with multiple different sensors, which continuously measure heat signals, gasses and spectrally-filtered images. An intelligent algorithm analyzes all of these variables simultaneously to deliver the most accurate detection on the market.
How was the Torch technology tested?
We have done a number of short and longer-term tests across various prescribed burning locations in California: mainly in Sonoma, Napa Valley, and Butte counties. Our focus during testing was minimizing the time between a fire starting and our sensors being able to detect it. We were able to achieve remarkably accurate results, where some sensors were able to detect a flame even before it was visible with a human eye. We’re continuing to perform a wide range of testing on various burns and geographies to maximize Torch’s accuracy.
