All things smoke detector

That thing is not that ugly

That’s an i3 with a sounder. The ones with built in relays look similar. I don’t think it looks ugly either, but to each their own I guess.

Is it an ion or photo detector?

According to my Google search. That detector is ion

I’d call that the Pre I-4…

I call those things “ 4 wire i3’s”

oh, i thought they predated the i3.

Speaking of I3s,my church has ALOT of them.Old and new

No. The detector you pictured is the 4 wire version of the i3

The 4 wire ones can look like that, but they can also look like the normal i3. The ones with sounders and relays look like that.

if that is the case, then how come i found it on a home security system? neither are in my range of expertise, but i do not believe those sorts of thing would have 4-wire detectors.

A security system can have a 2 or 4 wire smoke detector

The weirdest looking detector

Looks like a frickin traffic cone lmao

Or an alien spacecraft

I kinda see it when it’s on the sounder base

I still looks like a ufo even if it is on a regular base

This is indeed their nickname, both in the enthusiast and professional world…

Tell me the FSP-951 and friends aren’t the best looking smoke detectors from the last 2 decades.
