    absolutely LOVE these old Faraday horns. Love seeing even rarer rebrands of them too!! I have a Fenwal strobe plate that I got and put a horn behind lol. Great video as always man

      As you know, I've got this exact same alarm but surface mount!

    Ahh, Wheelock sync making makeshift 7001/Ts. Love it!

    Very similar alarms to the ones at my local Olive garden

    This was epic! Love hearing older alarms

    Besides the skipping from the sync protocol, the horns sound real good.

    I think it’s stupid how they removed all the pull stations

    Unknown horn/strobe is a Federal Signal V1071.
    Plus this takes me back to high school which had 9838 horns on 4903 strobe plates.

    New alarms!

    I love 6120s! And they are skipping. Odd federal signal mini horn strobe with strobe angled to flash straight across

    A museum in Houston TX had the faraday horn strobes but they’re likely replaced

    Awesome video! That building is beautiful!

    Using a magnet to test smoke detectors doesn’t comply with NFPA 72 you must use smoke entry for compliant testing

    • @FourtyFiftyEighty

      Washington uses 2016 NFPA 72 which allows for "methods of testing listed by the manufacturer"

    My college campus is full of these FCI rebranded Faraday 6120 horn strobes. I’ve yet to hear any of them sound. We also have quite a few of the newer multi tone Faraday horns that are Siemens UMMTs in a different housing with different strobes, also with FCI branding. Then, we have the FCI branded SpectrAlerts, normal SpectrAlerts, advances, and L series. Other than that, there’s some Gentex devices in the mix as well, and some voice evacuation versions that have Gentex or System Sensor speaker strobes. Also one building has a lone Simplex system with LifeAlarm speakers, and another two have EST Genesis ceiling speaker strobes. Most buildings here have FCI/Gamewell FCI panels, but there’s a lone Simplex and two EST systems as well.

    Model is 5004L! Well the mini horns are actually louder than the mechanical ones.

  • @loren4777
    @loren4777 Před 7 měsíci

    I think it’s so cool how they skip like wheelock 7001ts but sounds cooler with faraday

  • @firealarm2903_
    @firealarm2903_ Před 7 měsíci +2

    6120s fuck yes!

  • @ZacharyHappy366
    @ZacharyHappy366 Před 7 měsíci +2

    6120 is cool

  • @Alarmo05221
    @Alarmo05221 Před 7 měsíci

    0:20 AHA you found one! A V1071 Mini horn strobe or something (at least for the plate)

  • @loren4777
    @loren4777 Před 7 měsíci

    Those might be 6226s my cousins church in Michigan had 3 of them an they where loud enough to be heard

  • @NLind
    @NLind Před 6 měsíci

    OK I now lowkey want one of those V1071s.

    • @Alarmo05221
      @Alarmo05221 Před měsícem

      Yes, if they were not hard as hell to get

  • @charliereyes3236
    @charliereyes3236 Před 7 měsíci +1

    Sound like 7002 T

  • @Ronnocbot
    @Ronnocbot Před 7 měsíci

    New system, old NA's. Love it. BUT is that skipping Wheelock Sync??

  • @Fahrenheit4051
    @Fahrenheit4051 Před 7 měsíci +1

    Why's it running Wheelock sync? It doesn't look like there are any Wheelock signals. Are they planning on replacing the old ones?

    • @ZacharyHappy366
      @ZacharyHappy366 Před 7 měsíci

      It could be it’s on sync like you said but could be on a panel with sync

    • @FourtyFiftyEighty
      @FourtyFiftyEighty  Před 7 měsíci +2

      The panel might default to sync or something. Either that or a tech is very used to putting sync on

  • @Jimmy06blue

    Cool

    That's a cool system, and rare. Any pulls?

  • @alarmandsirenguy
    @alarmandsirenguy Před 7 měsíci +1
