Switched from wired contacts to wireless on a big job and I was wrong about them
For years I swore by hardwired sensors for every install. Did a 40 zone house in Charlotte last month and ran conduit for 3 days before I realized the drywall guys were gonna fight me the whole way. Swapped to wireless Honeywell 5800 series and finished the trim out in one afternoon. No voltage drop issues, no pulling cable through attics in August heat. Still think wired is more reliable for commercial but for residential I'm a convert now. Anybody else make the switch and regret it later?

Yeah, that's kind of how I feel about changing phone batteries now...
