Wheelock although dirt cheap in quality still makes some very good products. I know from experience they’re ungodly loud every single appliance which works more than great for the purpose of notification.
@@FireAlarmDude5967 I’ve spoke to quite a few techs who’ve been out in the field who say the build quality is cheap. I think even if that was true, wheelock is a very good brand. They even invented sync and led strobes.
4:39 "These things are WICKED loud..." When I heard that, I knew you were from Massachusetts! For some reason, I had thought that you were either a Californian, Oregonian or Washingtonian before this video. Perspectives from a lifelong New Yorker...
Super dope test. I tested a system that was almost identical to this setup. It was on an old Honeywell FS-90 system. Super cool retro system. Keep em up!
Pretty sure Honeywell owns Notifier, Gamewell-FCI, Silent Knight, Fire Lite, and System Sensor, just in the commercial fire alarm industry in the United States. They really do have basically half the companies that exist.
Never seen an MT on a Wheelock backbox before but it looks AMAZING!!! That ceiling mount LSM is really cool and feels so wrong for some reason 😂 Also I think your mic wasn't very happy with this system on continuous lol, I can't believe I chose this as my second alarm ever.
Can you do a voice evac with a slow deep whoop and a male message saying ( may I have your attention please may I have your attention please there has been a fire alarm reported in the building
At the part where you showed the strobes in the dark, that clearly explains why strobe synchronization requirements are in place. Codes require synchronized strobes for a very good reason and this clearly explains why synced strobes are a major must. One or two strobes out of sync in the field of view isn't too much of a problem but five, six, or seven strobes out of sync in the same field of view is super disorienting in a major way. I like alarms myself and I am in a fire alarm class at my college. That said, we are currently talking about strobe syncing and why it is important and I would like to ask if it is okay for me to use this video in my fire alarm class?
@@FireAlarmDude5967Especially the part where you turned off the lights at 9:18 to 10:02. I like to joke around a lot but that part is no joke. No joke. I love to play jokes but unsynced strobes are no joke. No joke. Super disorienting. This video, particularly that part where you turned off the lights and let the strobes flash in the dark, is the exact reason why that I used a Wheelock DSM sync module on the strobes on my Honeywell vista 20p system. Thanks for the permission to use this video in my class. Like they say, a picture is worth a thousand words, a video is worth a million words.
@@FireAlarmDude5967 ah makes sense Didn't know Honeywell still used these pulls for addressable systems, wonder what panels it was used on. And yes I can confirm BWI has these. They seem to have a Honeywell xls (notifier rebrand) system that still has some legacy devices
@@mimi2 definitely an older addressed pull but yes BWI has some of these although in the newer parts most alarms were replaced with advances and Honeywell BG-12s
The MT outside the place I work was so weathered and brittle that one day, I saw it with the plastic absolutely cracked and the strobe caved into the back box. They still haven't replaced the unit from what I saw last time
You have a strange fetish. There are plenty of pyromaniacs igniting stuff on UA-cam but you are probably the only antipyromaniac around. It's a nice obsession that even benefits your neighbors. The real question though, is why I watch (and enjoy) your videos when they're mostly useless to me as a Manhattan apartment boy...?
MTs are legendary
Got an MT4-24-WM on my display shelves. Love it
@@NateCraven318I haven’t gotten an MT4 yet but I have a MT-24-LSM, MT-24WM, and a MTWPB-2475W (Weatherproof with blue strobe)

Wheelock is pretty good in quality

That’s correct! Wicked good guess
Those things are very loud
Yeah
There are loud
MT's are awesome. But your camera? Its certainly commiting alive'nt when enduring that sound. 😂 awesome test today.
As a wise man once said: “LLLOOOUUUDDD”
Super dope test. I tested a system that was almost identical to this setup. It was on an old Honeywell FS-90 system. Super cool retro system. Keep em up!
Very fun test! I never knew Honeywell had a version of the MT. Cool stuff!
Awesome system test Wheelock MTs are real nice devices
I worked at the hospital everything is all Honeywell brand that includes system sensor l series advance and Wheelock chime strobes
Nice video, MT’s sound amazing
Wow! The mt is the best alarm because of the tone selection
I honestly never knew Honeywell had much involvement with fire alarm equipment, I mostly know the company for their electric fans and heaters.
Yeah they are one of the biggest brands in fire alarms and life safety systems.
They practically own half the market

Nice system!
Ya gotta love the MT!
I love Wheelock MTs!
Absolute W system!
Can you do a video on how you made your voice evac panel? I think it would be pretty interesting.
MT's are awesome
So true trent
Nice
I do have The Honeywell Rebranded Wheelock 7002T
Can you do a voice evac with a slow deep whoop and a male message saying ( may I have your attention please may I have your attention please there has been a fire alarm reported in the building
that sounds like my old-school fire alarm and one day they change Spector alerts
Gentex and silent knight for life too
I don't know if you've done something like this before, but you should consider doing Wheelock Exceeders and ADT 5050/60s.
ADT
How do you set the volume on an MT?
The first generation Wheelock AS’s do Wheelock Sync
Some of them do

I’m too familiar with the code 3

What did the address module look for the vintage Honeywell pull?
I believe it was just a mini module just like the addressable BG-10 pulls had

Wheelock mts are very very loud 4:53
Massachuitts we have bears
Dare you to set all of them on different tones
This system is gone
5:04 skipped. Is it the camera or is the fire alarm broken

Do you like wheelock / Honeywell MT?
Yes or no
I have a love-hate relationship with them. Yes they're awesome, but OH BOY are they loud and headache-inducing
Yes
