      The WTC did have wheelock alarms (rebranded by pyrotronics I think) it was MT-style speaker strobes

    Interesting, I didn't know there was a promo for those. I remember seeing a bunch of those early Wheelock AS through out the halls of the Career & Technology Center I had a class at back in 2021-22. Though I also remember a small few oddly being a much darker tone of red than the rest. Pretty neat there's a small clip of the assembly line for what seems to be the MT's

    Wow this is crazy, this is around the time that mechanical horns were in the wane phase in the market and any older system pre-ADA would be grandfathered in.

      Not since they & their parent Cooper Industries were taken over by Eaton Corporation in 2012 if you ask me; the Eluxa-series is the latest example of that.

      @@gavinproduction7433 people being taught about fire alarm systems and safety should REALLY be more prioritized. I bet hardly anyone would know how a Two stage alarm system would work, pull alarm, insert key to activate second stage, but I'm not sure how many people in buildings that have that would know it, this is just one example I thought of.

    Ever since discovering this video I've wanted to know the identities of the two music tracks in it, but have gotten nowhere: Shazam, BeatFind, & Google couldn't ID them. My only guess is that they're from some obscure 90s or maybe 80s or even earlier stock/production music album/library. Any ideas anyone?

      I actually "found" it in a way: I contacted Ben Schumin, owner of The Schumin Web & semi-retired life safety enthusiast, to ask about two photos of the AS at 4:54 that he had posted in a topic of his, & he sent me links to this video & the other one that HenBasket uploaded about Wheelock's VoiceLink-series of voice panels. I'm glad that their mere existence was discovered: I love finding life safety promotional material/media/literature like this (which is very hard to find due to its nature).

    • @joeycaridi3030
      @joeycaridi3030 7 місяців тому

      You're obviously saying that wrong. What's its being discussed is that silencing the alarm allows you to hear the message being transmitted through the radio device as loud fire alarm noises overpower what's being transmitted as it comes through the radio and makes it very hard for the person on the other end to hear because they're hearing an alarm sound through the radio speaker and one right next to them
