its nice having it all in one video. Spotted a second pull station by the entrance to the house garage that you must have added. Definetly makes sense to have one there. You should activate the garage system by the pull station in the pool shed next month. Looking forward to videos on the new additions and linking the systems.

I know that here in the US strobes in sleeping areas have to be at least 115cd at the pillow and ADA strobe smoke alarms have to be 177cd. There aren’t really any limits. Great video!

As far as the videos for your emergency systems go, I would like it to be kept in one video, but hey, that is just me. Monitoring your house Fire alarm, I am not sure if you are putting the same thing you have in the Garage (I almost want to call it "Pickle 700 HQ" because that was your original channel name, and it is basically your office building at this point) the Rising-Link device, I am not sure if you are going to put the same thing in your house fire alarm system, I guess it wouldn't be a bad idea. But anyway, I had a fire drill at my High School today, and unfortunately there was one casualty as far as Horn/Strobes go in the gym, there are 6 Horn/Strobes in that gym. One of them was not working as the strobe was not flashing, couldn't tell if the horn was working, but I knew the strobe was obviously dead, the 6 in the gym were original SpectrAlert, but majority of the building had SpectrAlert Advances, a couple of L-Series ceiling mount strobes, 3 of them newly installed in boys bathrooms because someone was ripping them off the wall, so now they are on the ceiling, I really like that because you can see them better in stalls.

No, we have low frequency sounders in the corridors which maintain the required 75 dB in most of the rooms at 520 Hz low frequency. having high frequency Piezo sounders would not be legal when you have low frequency sounders in the corridors it would then be mixed signals which you can't have. if there had to be something in the bedroom they would be low frequency sounders which are more effective at waking sleeping people.
