Recycle after upgrade to Gen 3?
I received an offer to upgrade my system to Gen 3. Since to do the upgrade I have to replace the base station and all of the sensors, is there a program to recycle old system?

Hi @wrat ,
SimpliSafe does not have a recycling program at this time. I would suggest looking up electronics recycling centers in your area as the most eco-friendly option (as an added bonus, less shipping would also be better for the environment!).
Or alternately, you can re-use the hardware as a second, local-only (unmonitored) system at a different location.

Thank you for the quick response.
I've decided to not upgrade. I will keep using my Gen 2 and hope Simplisafe brings back the trade-in program.

@wrat I don't want to discourage you from upgrading. The Gen 3 SimpliSafe was redesigned from the ground up, with sleeker, more efficient sensors, an a smarter Base Station and Keypad that can be updated with new features. And of course, we still have that upgrade offer that can get you at least 50% off on the new system.
Though you also don't have to decide now! Let our Support team know when you're ready and we'll take care of you.

Just want to make sure I haven't missed anything. My Gen 2 system is no longer connected to my account once I upgrade to Gen 3, correct? So no security concerns with having someone else reuse it as an offline system or handing it off to a recycling center? Thanks.
