My Company is Ryder Life Safety.
Me and @MrFireAlarm have an agreement in which I will install his appliances. Such as the CS-7, or his line of N/As. (This should work since we know each other IRL.)
For Security, Vista systems will be used with their ability to interconnect with MFA’s panels.
Not only will I install and maintain systems, but also other brands and systems installed by other people.
I have not thought on manufacturing my own series of devices, however they would probably be Multi Tone and Addressable.
If anyone is interested in partnering with me, let me know. I find that we all should be working towards 1 common goal, coming together to keep people safe and property safe, especially when it comes to Fire Protection.
Ryder Life Safety is only a small subdivision of Ryder. Inc. Our Residential Branch, Ryder Alarm also specializes in life safety. Not only do we do Life Safety, but Event Services, Security, Smart Automation.

Since Wilkintech and MFA are owned by the same parent company, will you install both?

Alterator Life Safety doesn’t just do fire protection but we also build and install warning sirens as well as weather radios for commercial and residential applications.

Yes, MFA has informed me before on this mutual agreement so yes, depending on the application and your permission, Wilkintech devices can be installed by RLS.

To add on, My Fire Alarm Manufacturer, “FireSense” is working on some larger projects as well, such as simple 1 NAC 1 Zone Panels, To Multi Zone Intelligent Panels.
I will release more information once I start the project.

I had a lucid dream last night with some rather unique devices. I was visiting a college and exploring one of their buildings when I found these speaker strobes mounted in the hallways.
This is the Phoenix Systems “Pyrocom” SS-24-H, a 24VDC, high-candela speaker strobe.
Since all I knew about it was what it looked like, I decided to give it a little backstory.
Phoenix Systems Corp was a fairly small alarm systems manufacturer based in, quite appropriately, Phoenix, Arizona. The company mostly rebranded Space Age Electronics and Federal Signal horns, horn strobes, and a variety of pull stations when it was established in 1982.
However, in the early 90s, Phoenix got into manufacturing its own devices in the “Pyrocom” series, such as the SS-24-H. They mostly used spare parts from Faraday, as seen with the modified mounting plate. They also made panels and pull stations. However, these devices are unfortunately considered extinct.
Faraday was bought out by Siemens in 1995, which would ultimately be the same fate for Phoenix in 1997, just a year before Cerberus Pyrotronics would also be purchased by Siemens.
I would’ve posted this in any of the “fire alarms from dreams” posts on the forums, but they were dead, and I didn’t want to necro-post.
Please let me know if you think it should be moved.
