    Funny you pointed out the noisy strobe. A few weeks ago, I pulled my fire alarm crap out of the closet after almost 7 years of forgetting about it and finally got around to fulfilling my childhood dream of making a fire alarm mock up board. After getting everything set up and finished and testing it for the first time, I instantly remembered just how stupidly whiny the 90s Wheelock strobes are (NS dated 98 and RSS dated 99).
    But I would get the older stuff anyway. Like so much from the 90s, the fire alarms are weirdly nostalgic-even though I wasn’t even alive in the 90s. Maybe because of a lot of the buildings and culture still around when our generation grew up.

    I saw a crazy fire alarm fail at a museum! The walls were painted green-ish/gray, and the fire alarms are red, but now gray. Not just one, but two! They even got paint on one of the lights!

    also, there is a miscomseption about knock-offs and rebrands. Knock offs are copies that are not the actual thing, but tried to mimick it. Rebrands are the same thing, but just branded by another company

  • @michaelgrahamwongacutemadness
    @michaelgrahamwongacutemadness 8 месяцев назад +1

    I noticed my newer style as is kinda whiny and the strobe doesn’t flash much if at all with certain candela settings if underpowered and also if you wanna set the horn to continuous high volume you can put both jumpers on the four in a row pins the medium and low settings get overridden that’s how you can avoid keeping track of the jumpers if they’re right there

    Yes I never cared for AS either and probably because those were the alarms used in Elementary school for all those drills! I remember our former Walmart having those style alarms, and that one had the older AS alarms with the strobe on the side interestingly enough!

    The Thumbnail of the video that displays "Hot or Not?" Is a reference to the Hot or Not rating site that allowed users to rate the attractiveness of photos submitted voluntarily by others.
    If the photos of these fire alarms were on that website then I would rate the Wheelock AS a 5/10 and the Bosch AS 10/10

    Where I work at has them rebranded as Siemens.
    Edit: I heard them go off last week, and honestly they weren't as ear piercing as I thought they'd be.
    Unless I'm just made differently.
    The temporal is much faster than the other Wheelock As's
    The loudest alarm shall remain the Spectralert Advance in my opinion.

    I've found that the newer Wheelock devices sound smoother if that makes any sense. This applies to both the AS and NS. The older ones are slightly lower pitched and scratchy sounding while the new ones have a more crisp and clear sound, which I like a lot more.
