Hi guys! I am currently new here, and I thought of showing off some of my alarms in my collection:
(I am not sure if these images will work or not)

Those are super awesome and rare devices! Have you ever considered starting a YouTube channel? Do you already have one? I would love to see some of these devices in action!
Welcome!
You know, I do believe you’re the first enthusiast to not only have a Wheelock “Farr-Larm” 3300 with a 7002T on it (even if it’s a Pyrotronics-rebranded version: most come with 31T-115s instead) as well as a W.L. Jenkins Company bell/strobe! That blank AV32 + Faraday 3460 combo is also certainly unique! (reminds me of the one thesdx had on his setup at one time: that one had a blue lens however)
That gold Pyr-A-Larm bell wouldn’t happen to be 24VDC would it? (since most seem to be other voltages instead)
Hi! The FarrLarm plate came with a 7004T-115, and the Pyrotronics bell is also 24 VDC. (Also that is a Pyrotronics HSD-24, so a 7002T, on the Farr-larm plate.)
Oh. Still though: as I said most of the time they come with 31T-115s instead since there’s already a visual signal below the horn & behind the plate (which is a flashing light bulb).
Nice! I believe it’s rare to find older Pyrotronics devices like that in 24VDC.

Oh I get it now, except mine didn’t come with a bulb
That could be because the bulb broke at one time & a replacement couldn’t be found (or was otherwise not available for whatever reason), so they put a 7004T on it to compensate.

That is interesting, especially how the strobe plate is unmarked! (heck those strobes plates in general are rare to begin with, but an unmarked model? Even rarer!)
