Oh yeah, my FireLite ES-50X panel, it is interesting how it works with LiteSpeed. On this version of LiteSpeed that is on the ES panels, I call it "Reverse flashscan" Because the LEDs on the detectors, they flash green to state that they are initializing, then they go solid red for a bit, then start doing it's normal LiteSpeed Flashing. Modules when power is reapplied to the SLC, it flashes red then green for a second and back to red. Just thought I'd share that because those ES panels are really interesting lol
Nice! I do have 2 suggestions for the system though. First is at least for me it does seem annoying you can’t silence a CO alarm and having the strobes go off on a drill is just a minor “issue”. 2nd is adding an indicator or strobe outside that goes off whenever anything goes off in the generator room. Keep up and the great work
Hey Nic! Very nice video! I think you should make a series of videos testing all your equipment annually. Like making an annual testing video for your fire alarm system in your house, an annual flashing video for your sprinkler system and maybe an annual testing video for your security system. It would be very nice to see wouldn't it?
This is nice. Next time when I get the same fire lite panel like yours have or a different fire lite panel, I will make my own fire alarm system setup as well just like yours in the garage, but for my own fire alarm setup, I am adding my favorite 1st 2nd and 3rd gen Wheelock AS's for the indoor fire alarm system and outdoor fire alarm I'm adding a waterproof back box of a Wheelock MT-24-WM's with my BG-10's BG-12's and STI Stopper II on a BG-10 and BG-12's on my fire alarm system and sync modules over indoors that i'm going to using it in the future for my fire alarm systems.
Nic I am a big fan of your videos. It’s so interesting to learn about all this stuff. Lotta stuff I never knew about fire alarm systems and other stuff. Always like seeing you go to all the schools. The power outage videos are pretty cool too. I try to watch as many of your videos as possible. I get addicted to watching your videos. I look forward to more videos whenever you post them. I always enjoy watching you. Keep the videos coming!
I realize this is what you do for a living (and I don't), but the fact of how much you like it might make you even more of a geek than me. I mean that in the most complimentary way possible :-)
