Fire and Other Safety Hazards: What is the risk, and what mitigations have users implemented?

Not that I would ever leave my MINI or i3-MKS unattended, but I am interested in others' experience with fire or other potential safety hazards, and mitigations.   I am especially interested in Prusa's 24/7 Print Farm experience?

My experience:

  • In many hundreds of hours of experience, I have never had a serious safety issue (e.g. - fire, melted or burnt printer component...)

My mitigations:

  1. Attending to printers, of course.
  2. IP camera on each printer
  3. Smart smoke detector in print room that is monitored via phone app (smartthings)
  4. Remote-controlled receptacles for each printer (smart-plugs).
  5. Small fire extinguisher in print room.

Well... I would going to be a littlebit more professional...
1) Get propper and Certified Smoke Dedector who are Mains Powerd and use a Bus System.
2) Get a (Online) UPS System to prevent Micro Outtakes who are <1sec.
3) Connect the Smoke Dedector to the UPS in the case the when on the UPS Cut immediately the Power.
