Video smoke detectors? I didn't know we were playing 'Where's Waldo: Smoke Edition'. Photoelectric is the real MVP here.

Yeah, I agree. Ionization detectors are better for fast-flaming fires.

Ionization detectors? More like 'ion-izing' my brain with these silly choices. Photoelectric is the winner, hands down.
