Welcome and congrats on both setting up a system and the FF cadet! I did the fire academy a couple years back so I know very well just how difficult some of that work is. Keep at it!

Hey fellow Fire Alarm enthusiasts. I am Metrolink_YT and I have been an enthusiast since I was 8. My favorite alarms are the Wheelock NS-24-MCW and the System Sensor Spectralert P2R. You can find me on “The Siren Board” with the same name. Have a good day! :rotating_light:

Welcome everyone. My name is Brandon. I’m a rookie when it comes to fire alarms and I can’t wait to start educating myself on the different models. I run a traffic signal forum and I know various people in the signal community who are in to fire alarms. So I thought why not I hop on board as well. I’m thesignalman on YouTube.

Hi everyone, i’m Zach from an alternate universe, my name is Zack.

Hiya chaps, it is I, siren_enjoyer.
I’m just another surfer of the interwebz (or, internet if you prefer more formal terms). Not gonna go much into detail on myself, but I am an artist who has WAY too many interests (I might need to create an entire Google Doc on it). I’m on a handful of websites and games as well. Nothing too notable about me, I guess. I’ll be lurking around here for a while.

Hope you can decently enjoy my rambling/yapping here

Hey guys! I’m @Metrolink_YT135 (previously @Metrolink_YT . I had to create this account since I lost access to the Google account tied to my old account). I am 15 as of National Fire Alarm Day. (Kinda ironic that I was born on National Fire Alarm Day and i’m a Fire Alarm enthusiast, don’t you guys think?) I’ve been a Furry since January and the creator of the Fire Alarm Furries group.

Outside of Fire Alarms, I have an interest in Tornado Sirens, Weather Radios, Public Transit (Im putting passenger trains, including Amtrak, in this category), Aviation, making music, and building stuff.

I am in the middle of nowhere in the Great State of Misery (Missouri), though I plan on moving to a city on the East Coast when I’m older.

Hopefully this helps you get to know me better than my post on this thread under my @Metrolink_YT account. If you have any questions, feel free to ask in a reply here, or PM me.

Thanks and have a great day!

I am a fire alarm enthusiast who was born in San Antonio TX and now lives in Houston TX. I go by Mr Lonestar (please do not call me other names or call me Mr lone ____ or whatever some of y’all know by now). Also please do not bully me because I have been dealt with drama a lot in the fire alarm community. So about my fire alarm hobby, I have been a part of the fire alarm community since the 2024 and I still have a lot to learn. I find fire alarm systems via either in real life (going inside buildings and taking pictures of them) or using google maps (mainly hotels, hospitals and nursing homes). I enjoy finding Simplex and Faraday systems from not just my local state, but from all around the US as well. My favorite alarms are the Simplex 2903 series (mainly light plates since it’s typical over in tx and more common in my state than strobe plates. Come on guys it’s just an opinion) and my favorite panel is the Simplex 2001 (a handful of 2001s are still in tx right now). I plan on collecting fire alarms when I move out after high school. I So aside all that fire alarm related stuff, I enjoy technology and gaming. I am ITF+ certified (planning on getting the A+ certification) in the Comptia industry. Despite all the drama I dealt with in discord (especially with the lone … you know the drill) I’m actually not that stupid so please if I make a simple mistake then please just constructively criticize me for it. I sincerely apologize for all of my past mistakes and bad decisions I made on discord before my 2 week hiatus from the fire alarm community. I’m going to start improving myself and start redeeming myself from now on. So that’s all I got to say about my long ass introduction. See ya!

Hi guys! I am @simplex_4903-9238 I have been apart of the fire alarm community since 2017! Since Kindergarten! I hope to see ya’ll on the flippity side! I am 13 years old, so I am right at age!

I am @GamewellCrazed and I’ve been snooping around in the community under multiple aliases since 2017. I do not and will not have a collection in the foreseeable future because I cannot control my bank account. Take everything I say with a grain of salt because I just parrot things I see online but trust me bro.

Hi guys! I am @firealarmking. I am from (born and raised in) Stamford, Connecticut, and am in high school now! Ever since I was young, I have been interested in central air conditioners, elevators, and escalators. (The elevators and escalators came from numerous rides at the Ridgeway Shopping Center in Stamford!) When I was in preschool, I began developing an interest in technology, and, by 1st Grade, I began developing an interest in fire alarms! Also, in 2016, I began making my own elevator videos using my dad’s old iPhone 4S, until I got my first iPad: an iPad 2 running iOS 9.3.5 that I got from my mother’s old workplace that they were disposing of. I still have that iPad- and it runs great (it has now been downgraded to iOS 6.1.3!) This was because of my discovery of YouTube in 2015, on my father’s HP Pavilion computer. I discovered channels such as DieselDucy, JimLiElevators, Stamped Octagon Productions, xctome, and FreeBrickProductions. As I grew older, I continued making my videos, and got better cameras as a result, including an iPad 6th generation, iPod Touch 7th generation, and iPhone SE 2nd generation. In 2024, I began dabbling into content creation via Spotify with a podcast called “Chatterbox” that was originally a talk show, eventually developing into a reaction show. In July 2024, I then created Kernel Panic, which was mainly for tech-focused content, and in August, I created Elevators, Escalators, and More, which is crucial to my YouTube channel. As nobody watched those shows, I decided to start a new content creation journey: YouTube. Since I began making videos, I have always wanted to start a YouTube channel! I got my name “Elevators, Escalators, and More” back in 2017, and it finally came to fruition after 3 beta tests on Google Sites and Spotify. My channel officially launched in November 2024, and I decided to create another channel for tech in December 2024. The other channel is called “The Stamford E-Waste King.”

Regarding fire alarms and air conditioners, what piqued my interest in them was my observation skills at the age of 2: I took in all the designs, characteristics, and brand names. I grew up with two air conditioners in my condo: a 1984 Rheem High Efficiency heat pump and a 2007 Carrier BASE Model heat pump. My favorite was the Rheem due to its octagonal fan grille, but I did not recognize the Carrier’s brand until I was older. Other brands I knew were Rheem, Carrier, Ruud, Trane, Comfortmaker, Arcoaire, Frigidaire, York, Luxaire, Lennox, and so much more! I discovered HVAC filming thanks to Stamped Octagon Productions, and that just blossomed from there! Eventually, I discovered other channels, like RheemProductions (now Florida HVAC Productions) and HVAC Explorations. Then, in 2025, I started filming HVAC units on YouTube, after officially starting filming air conditioners in 2017.

Finally, my interest in fire alarms mainly came from school: my elementary school had an EST QuickStart system with 792 Pre-Integrities and SIGA-270 pulls. After hearing them during fire drills, I became curious, and discovered thesdx on YouTube. I watched his “My Fire Alarm Collection 2.0” video (the one with Fastball’s Fire Escape as a song.) Then, I discovered other channels, such as jjinc24/U80lo, NewAgeServerAlarm, and msj19161 (his Church Fire Alarm Activation video, with the Faraday mechanical horns.) Soon enough, I learned a lot of the major models, and began making paper versions of those models. I even used mounting putty to mount them to my house’s walls, and made my own paper systems as a result! This was so amazing, and it felt like having my own system at home. I eventually saw all the models that I knew when I was out in public (hotels, airports, restaurants, malls, etc.) In 2022, I built my fire alarm photo album, and in 2023, I joined this forum.

So, that is a quick biography of who I am, and what my unique interests are!
