Oh, alright I guess…
Oh, yeah, maybe.
Man…
Yeah, pretty much that’s the only VE panel that gamewell does. is it voice evac?
Oddly, pretty much every GW-FCI system I’ve ever seen has had those single action pull stations. I’ve seen some Silent Knight ones too. I don’t think Fire-Lite or Notifier rebrand the addressable versions of those.
Considering that the school has a Gamewell system, I’m thinking that, at one point, they might have had a system running Gamewell Apollo addressable devices. Considering @siren_enjoyer has never mentioned any other Apollo devices in the building, it’s probably no longer in service. I could be wrong, though. I’m also not certain whether or not the ever made any conventional versions.
My first Elementary school in Jacksonville, FL.
I went here for my little cousin’s Christmas performance tonight.
I don’t remember there being horizontal Wheelock MTs here.
These centegix strobes were not here when I was there.
This was in a bathroom.

Huh…
Yeah: last I checked Gamewell did have something of a partnership with Apollo detector-wise back in the day (not sure if they do anymore though since Gamewell-FCI sells (mostly) nothing but addressable panels now (which of course would require specific addressable detectors) & Apollo (mostly) doesn’t make the UL-approved Series 65A-series anymore (no idea know why: they were great detectors if you ask me).
Unless you’re referring to the photo quite a ways below that one, that’s not an MT: that’s an NS. Neat system though (though odd how the signals are Wheelock even though the rest of the system is Simplex).
Sadly probably because there wasn’t a need for them when you were still attending (provided that was a really long time ago of course).
Pretty sure that’s some kind of IR security or occupancy sensor & thus it’s not related to the fire or lockdown systems at all.
I was referring to the photo a few pictures under it, though the same applies to the NS as well.
Oh yeah, forgot to mention: Apollo detectors make up nearly all of the detection devices in non-renovated areas, except for a few System Sensor 2400THs in the library. And they are still active. And, if I must:
Auditorium System: Wheelock E70/90 speaker/strobes and RSS strobes, G-FCI single-ax BG-12s, Notifier FSB beam detectors (or G-FCI equivalent), Apollo smoke detectors
Non-renovated/Original-ish System: Wheelock AS horn/strobes and RSS strobes, Gamewell Century (M46) and rebranded Sigcom manual stations, Apollo heat & smoke detectors (dunno model), System Sensor 2400TH detectors (library only), Eaton beam detectors (dunno model, also library only)
Bungalow Expansion System: System Sensor outdoor Advance speaker strobes and LED L-Series strobes and speaker strobes, Notifier FSP-951 and FST-951 detectors [haven’t seen manual stations in any of the bungalows]

Yep, a gamewell E3, Only VE Panel by gamewell if I suppose..
Eckroth Plaza- Bismarck, ND
This building was opened in 2007. It houses multiple businesses over two main floors, with at least some businesses having basement areas. The main store in this building (and also its namesake) is Eckroth music, which is the main music store in my area, and the company that serves all of the music and band programs at all of my area’s schools. They also have some other businesses, such as insurance agents and restaurants.
Panel: Most likely originally a Siemens FS-250, but may have been replaced by an FC922 at some point
Notification Appliances: What appear to be Siemens U-MHU-MCS horn/strobes, and U-MCS remote strobes
This photo shows one of the horn/strobes in a Subway restaurant:
Pull Stations: Siemens MSI-10B addressable pull stations
Detectors: Siemens HFPO-11 addressable photoelectric smoke detectors

Possibly a fs-250 or a small firefinder
Recently witnessed this at Boston City Hall. It has an older Notifier system from the early-mid 2000’s.

A post was merged into an existing topic: Make Up a System (2.0)
You read right, the EST3 is now defunct… The EST3, along with some other components, have been removed and is now in my possession, the system replacement is still in progress and I’ve yet to get all the other components off this system…
Here is what the panel looked like when it was installed…

Why best buy?? WHY???
Lol. Since this is New York and this apparently replaced an old Edwards system, I wouldn’t be surprised if there used to be bells there. That’s kind of an unfortunate replacement if it’s the case. My local Best Buy has a pretty boring system. It’s what I think is probably a Notifier NFS-320 system with Gentex Commander 3 and 4 devices. The one thing that I guess you could say is interesting about it is that it is one of very few Notifier systems in my area.
Nah, not in new york, it’s in New jersey.
