That first few detector in the video doesn't comply with British regs. It probably wouldn't work in real fire conditions because it's placed to close to wall. If you look at how smoke behaves it rolls around corners. The British recommendations say 500mm from any wall. This is due to cold air that pushes smoke away from surfaces. BS5839 if your interested
Thank you for this video! BUT it's recomended to place smoke detectors at least(!) 50cm away from the wall. In corners there is no moving air. I had my smoke detectors at the wrong place (like you) for 17 years... oops.
I am going to say something: Your smoke alarm is GUARANTEED to false alarm at least once in 10 years. Mine didn't, but that's because it was disconnected, and had no battery when I moved in, and I didn't even realize. Oops. There was never a fire, but there was occasionally smoke from cooking.

I used to have these exact BRK 4120B smoke alarms in my house. But in 2013 they went off constantly for like 4 hours straight which it happened multiple times which one of them was in the middle of the night so had to call an electrician to come replace them with Kidde/Firex i4618 hardwired ionization alarms. It turned out to be that the wire plug to the one in my room went bad and it was getting so hot that it made that smoke alarm go off and then the others responded through the interconnecting. It was a nightmare because I couldn’t sleep. Although I kept 6 of the old BRK’s. Although I had a Kidde KN-COPE-IC in my upstairs hallway that looks exactly like that KN-COPE-I in your hallway. But I moved it downstairs the other day to replace one that kept draining batteries even though it was only a couple months old. Now my upstairs hallway has a First alert SC9120B and a 4120B just like the ones in this video since there are two wire boxes and two sets of wires with BRK first alert harness. Originally in that hallway there was a 4120B and a CO5120B which that CO5120B is now In my collection. One of the wire boxes is has interconnect wires and the other one is stand alone. The interconnected one I wired in a brand new first alert harness because the Kidde one was damaged. I’ve replaced a bunch of the other Kidde harnesses with first alert ones because I was afraid those were going to cause false alarms and overheat the alarms. There’s still one old Kidde harness left that I need to replace which I will do at some point. The standalone still has the original wire harness. That one at the very beginning of this seems to have the slowest code three I’ve ever seen. I have no idea what brand or model it is because the only one I’ve seen is this specific one in this video
It wouldn't even work because the furthur ones would be slightly lower pitched, and the speed of sound would mess it up. It actually is better that they are like this. Better for your ears.
@@Undercoverelevator212-s2n Imposable because smoke/Heat detectors where invented around the 1900s also 1,000,000,000,000,000,000 years ago houses didn't exist dinosaurs didn't exist And in general they would be 5 or 8 years old
I need to get some test smoke. Besides I hope my home's Alarms gets replaced by photo electric models which work better.. Problem is the ionization alarms in the house does not work even when there is smoldering food from the stove. That is a safety hazard.
Hey right here. I'd recommend a first alert alarm with a dual sensor. (Ionization and photoelectric) these alarms respond well to both fast flaming fires and slow smoldering fires. They may. Be more expensive, but it'll pay for itself many times over especially if it saves your life.
1: Get an alarm that will interconnect with the others in your house. 2: There is a reason ionization has not been used in commercial systems for a long time. They don't work well.
I used to have the smoke alarms that are in the majority of the video. They are super sensitive and mine always went off since we had one right outside of our kitchen
Google helps. BRK alarms (the ones with two LEDs on each side) are 6120s. The Kidde's are KN-COPE-ICs (assuming they have CO detection as well, most do). The first alarm is unknown to me however.
3:58 I have those same alarms all mounted on the wall in my house. can someone tell me the model number or at least the brand? i feel like they're rare.
can someone tell me the type of smoke detector at 1:05 because I have two of them in my house in fact there the only two detectors in the house we live in a very small apartment
Derpy FireAlarms I had like 9 of them in my old house and those things were crap. They would false alarm all the time even though wasn't any fire, smoke, steam, etc. My family eventually found out later that a voluntary recall had been issued for them, and we had them replaced in say 2012 or so with Kidde ion detectors. The only time these ever false alarmed was once compared to the tons of times the 4120Bs did. I live in a newer house now that has Kidde FireX ion detectors and one CO smoke combo that's also ionization and is also by Kidde. Lived here for 2 years now, and not a single false alarm. They're all interconnected; even the ones at my old house were.
@@sirenfreak57 I have one that's 21 years old and still detects smoke and still sounds correctly. It's Ionization too, which makes it even more impressive.
Different Smoke Detector is hooked into One. So all the Smoke Detector goes off when one gets activated! Nice Job! 😄
they are hardwired, that why.
At 4:16 all the alarms going off at the same time sounded like a sick Wheelock NS
So true

The first detector's temporal pattern actually sounds similar to the temp 3 code on the old FCI 7200 panels

@@firealarmsofnorthwesternmi799 I had been wondering what that first one was. Thanks
@@elevatorswithESH you’re welcome! I got one a few years back on clearance so when I saw it I immediately knew what I was
I wish they were a bit lower pitched, so that they don't damage the most sensitive part of your ear.

Sounds like that stuff is useful for checking the accuracy of these things
We have FireX 120-1072B smoke alarms. Some people have had the horns on theirs die, but our work perfectly fine. With the test button, that is.
you can test it with incense or a humidifier
When you tested the first smoke detector, everything started going insane. LOL
I love the BRK ones because they have a hushButton and a test button
At 4:12 I heard fire fire
From the kidde alarm at 3:51
Cool test!!
Thanks!
Weird how the 2 smoke alarms downstairs were a FAIL!
Why sid i hear a chorp at 0:02? was there a parrot?
Ik
idk why did it do that the S.E.R safety?
That was a squeak
the one ay the beginning beeps slowly

How old are the alarms in your old house just for curiosity

watertakken because its ionization, it detects flaming fires. Photoelectric smoke alarms detect smoldering fires.
What Do you think was wrong with the Kidde I19010? It wasn’t beeping when the fake smoke hit it.
Dust
I have a first alert smoke alarm with a voice and when I push the test buton the voice says there's a fire but when I do it with smoke it does not
Weird
yea I just tried it again with mine and I just let it go for a long time and after a very long time the voice will say the message
Safety Security Alert That's weird. When I grow up, I'm gonna install every co sector in every bedroom.
What's the model for the first one? I saw these when I was younger
I have the exact same BRK alarm except mine has a second button
I like fire alarms and smoke alarms and smoke detecters :)
CoolestGamer2006 Sebas if u go to my chan I be doing a vid on my smoke alarm
CoolestGamer2006 Sebas i like co alarms
Can you test a gentex with a smoke can? Gentex goes off automatically if it detects smoke
Cool! Nice video! I'm thinking of getting a smoke alarm for the new addition of my house. Do you have any recommendations?

Don't buy First Alert they are junk. Both alarms and extinguishers. Buy a Kidde.
1: Get an alarm that will interconnect with the others in your house. 2: There is a reason ionization has not been used in commercial systems for a long time. They don't work well.
ironmatic 1 yes.. I can agree. slow response to smoke and that's why my fire alarm system has photoelectric type.
I recommend the kidde p12040 smoke alarm. It is sensitive.
I have system sensor 2wta-b wired smoke along with system sensor COSMO 2 wire.
The first one I love how SER starts coughing on smoke before the smoke alarm even sounds
The first smoke detector tho... Worries me how slow it is. You can connect kiddes and brk's together via a brk 4 relay.
Its fine
what is the first one
Dcsyhh
Luke Bennett i
HammerGamez BRK Smoke/Heat alarm
i saw the first detector was triggered way before it beeped. Alarm verification?
sort of, it was making sure it was real smoke, not fake smoke by cooking
By fake smoke he means steam
@@Liftmaster-sw2zyI really wish every smoke alarm had a 10 second delay before sounding, to get rid of those ones that just last a few seconds
Is there any way to sync smoke detectors so they all sound at the same time?
Rodj no. They usually have a delay on sounding times and some horns usually have a longer or shorter temporal 3 beep.
@@Alarmo05221The speed of sound would mess it up, and this is actually safer for your ears

These ones are hardwired but they do make some that interconnect wirelessly

You know, our smoke alarm only says fire once.
That smoke alarm says fire two times.
I see, that, there are smaller smoke alarms.
Cool test
Awesome!
Thanks!!!
why does the smoke/co alarm keep beeping long after the others stop?
beacause its newer orn they designed for it to do that
And wow how big is your house and you have a lot of alarms
Could you possibly make another security system video?
eeh
I used to have the smoke alarms that are in the majority of the video. They are super sensitive and mine always went off since we had one right outside of our kitchen
Same except I don't remember mine but our house roof is slanted so the steam sets them off
very cool but you did not give the 1 in the basement very much time thats why dit did not talk
1:46 what detector is that?

yeah jacksonjack
does'nt testing smokes with solo malfunction the alarms?
If you use excessive amounts it can but a little isn't going to hurt.
