This might be a record for the most 270s on a demo system on KZbin. Jesus, this took a lot of wire. Hope you guys enjoy!

Oh boy EST Shitstart… collector friendly but loaded with 5 flaws for every feature. I’m amazed the panel even reset properly. I’ve heard many techs complain about it and i’ve seen these panels just do the weirdest things a panel can do.

I'm a technician, and these actually aren't the worst out there. I had to work on an EST2 yesterday, and I had to hold myself back from putting my head through the wall.

@@Twentythree33 I never said they were the worst, but they are pretty bad as a panel, if not one of the worst. I definitely agree the the EST 2 is very ass and should be put in a dumpster and lit on fire. If you’ve seen nic’s systems and electric’s videos, apparently plugging on in or cycling the power is enough to kill it. EST’s products are in general cheap trash that shouldn’t be bothered with, but lots of techs and companies in the field like to buy it simply because its cheap, and cheap apparently makes everything better.

That was the case with Edwards here back in the 2000s. They offered their devices for dirt cheap prices here in order to get a large market share. Eventually people figured out that their products are shit, and stopped buying that.

@@Twentythree33 explains why my elementary school “fell for” an EST 2 and by the time I was in middle school upgraded to an iO1000 system which are actually not that bad and definitely better than most their products. Although I guess that means people never learn sometimes.

8:53 XD I mean you could technically classify the old 270's as "brutalist" or INDUS- Excuse me, given they look beat to crap. Good Test!

This entire video is just Every single Calgary Catholic School District system (Including BCHS, but that gets a bit of an exception as it has integrities still intact). If this was a TRUE CCSD simulation it would have Red wall mount Genesis's and White Ceiling mount genesis's.

[@Twentythree33]

So true.

[@NyxKemo]

The Genesis LEDs suck, they’re bad horn/strobes

[@Twentythree33]

Agreed.
