There are two types of residential smoke detectors: ionization and photoelectric. Ionization smoke detectors use electrically-charged particles to detect smoke in the air and are more responsive to flaming fires (such as a tipped candle igniting a curtain). Photoelectric smoke detectors use a light beam to detect smoke and are better at detecting smoldering fires (such as a cigarette) accidental fire.
