Weird exception: A really strange Siemens system with Edwards Genesi, installed around 2010.

I have heard of EST3 systems rebranded by Siemens.

I've heard that in some areas certain buildings that are fully sprinklered don't even require NAs throughout or at least used to not, requiring only one NA to indicate sprinkler activation.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eC-t8hfJFTY - Voice evac system with the same two-step whoop as the alarms in the old World Trade Center.

That’s a “Firecom” system, which was installed in 7 WTC. 1 and 2 WTC did NOT have this, they had Cerberus Pyrotronics systems.

Name that fire alarm. Almost looks like an Exceeder non-LED speaker strobe.

From NAS Jax Commissary in Jacksonville, FL. Name that fire alarm.

Wheelock cluster speaker rebranded by Atlas Sound, and a SpectrAlert Advance strobe.

The last system from my trip... and it's VERY unusual in multiple ways. Baltimore-Washington International Thurgood Marshall Airport - Baltimore, MD Pull stations: Honeywell S464A's (I think they're addressable) with dual-action covers in older areas. https://instagram.fbos1-1.fna.fbcdn.net/vp/54eef...
