Other than studying fire alarm systems I tend to like EAS activations, intercom/PA systems, Elevators, exit signs, backup LED lighting (I have a few of them myself), and pomeranians.

I am a Catholic too! I went to the same high school as LeBron James, which has a very rare Simplex fire alarm system from the early 70s. I may be able to get my hands on some of the alarms as that school is slated for an upgrade or demolition in a few years. This will be the first Catholic school on the Old School Fire Alarms YouTube channel.

that system was taken out of service because it started to malfunction and sound randomly. I might be gettin the siren though.

I’m also a diehard history enthusiast. I’m always on the hunt for anything vintage or rare.

There’s one in Barberton, Ohio from 1953! It’s still in service after 70 years (originally part of the Summit Cnty. CD siren system.)

I also video tornado sirens

I live near a vertical darley champion, 10 minute drive away from my house, and I did video it

Why, yes. Although there are too many to list here.

Cool image of a 2001!

Especially a pipe organ.

I did collect weather radios for a long time, have 200+ of those. I’ve moved on to collecting fire alarm stuff since then.

Well, this might sound REALLY strange, but I am into EpiPens and other Epinephrine auto-injector devices, one reason being that I have severe allergies to peanut and shellfish products (severe as in you-eat-it-you-suffocate-to-death-or-have-a-stroke style severe) I also collect the traning devices (and smetimes prank friends and family!)
