Ting is a revolutionary product developed by Whisker Labs, a Maryland-based technology company. The mission of Ting is to prevent the most devastating fires, particularly those that stem from hidden electrical faults in homes. This is accomplished through their smart, DIY plug-in device that monitors electrical systems and can detect potential fire hazards before they result in disaster.

This event ignited a passion to protect families from similar fates.

With advanced sensor technology, Ting continuously watches over the home and notifies users of any signs of danger. This proactive approach is designed to provide peace of mind for homeowners.
