I have Autism too. In my elementary school, we had the est genesis, which are as this video proves very loud for there damned small size. I had (and probably still do) have fire alarm phobia. When I am informed we are having a fire drill, I clench my teeth real tight. But I'm also genuinely interested in them. I hate spectralert advances though. They are way to fricken loud. There are two at my current high school, and they're both in bathrooms. Glad I haven't heard one of those suckers go off

On the hearing protection: It's also important to note that the average you took is of data 10ft away. Most enthusiasts are not 10ft away. Pull stations are typically placed nearby notification devices, notification devices are often stationed near the panel, and demo boards obviously put you real close and personal with your alarms. Therefore it's even more important that you wear hearing protection if you're an enthusiast.

I'm amazed the TrueAlert wasn't number one. We had those at a brand new Elementary school back in the early 00s (it had just been built, some of the fire alarms had plastic wrap still on them), and they are the reason I hate fire alarms to this day. I've always had sensitive hearing, always covering my ears for sounds "loud" to others, but not normally intolerable as they are to me. Fire alarms gave me so much anxiety at my Elementary school because they were so damn loud. I remember on multiple occasions I pissed myself because I refused to go to the bathroom, because I was so damn scared the alarms were going to randomly go off. It's kind of interesting that, while I don't like fire alarms in general, most of the time I'm okay to be around them, but I still won't set foot anywhere near a TrueAlert because how much they scared the hell out of me as a kid. I see a building that has them in place, I don't go in there unless I have to. I see a room that has one, I actively avoid that room. Yet I'm strangely enough fascinated by the things that I hate, searching up videos on them. But man, my skin crawls hearing the familiar, shrill beeping of a TrueAlert.

I never guessed the NS would be LOUDER than the Advance by 6.3db, probably because the horn's pitch was a bit deeper. I agree what you had mentioned about everyone's perception of hearing, probably because the Advance has the most shrill sound in my opinion is why it seems the loudest. I've noticed that mechanical horns such as the Simplex 9838 you had tested here seem quieter to me...to my ears, the mechanical horns are a bit deeper in pitch compared to the piezo-based devices, but find it interesting it was pretty close in terms of the decibel rating it emits. For sure, I would have thought the bell would have been the loudest of the bunch, that's surprising it was the quietest out of the bunch. Great video!

I have the advance at my work, and the halls have a heavy echo. (Hospital) It was actually a code red drill, and being stuck in the hallway that re-triggered my research into fire alarms. With my research, I've come to learn that my preference is a voice evacuation system. As plain alarms will now spike my anxiety to nearly cardiac arrest senarios. Not because I fear a fire, but because the sound of the alarms cause PTSD in me. (Childhood trauma in a school fire drill that caused a concussion) Now hospital security will come find me where I'm at to give me earplugs. However, I will not like to find out what would happen to me in a real emergency.

@@alexandersalarms5380 Guess not, even though that’s what they are supposed to have generally. I had a similar phobia of fire alarms when I was younger, due to my Autism and an extreme sensitivity to loud noises. Nowadays, even the mention of anything related to them (like when people came in to do a fire safety inspection at my local grocery store while I was on register and I heard them say it) causes a micro panic attack within me. Even though the people who came to inspect the store didn’t actually test the alarms (they just checked the extinguishers and made sure they were up to code, but not the alarms), I still felt a sudden rush of fear within me and I tried hard to hide it while I continued to cash out customers. But if I have control over when they sound (such as when I’m watching videos of them here on KZbin), I’m perfectly fine. It’s when it happens outside of my control that scares me. And advance warning only makes it worse, because then I know it’s coming, and the panic starts to build ahead of time.

It was when I happened to be in that other 25% of the school that I had issues, because the Genesis alarms were FREAKING LOUD!

I did it a few days ago and I was literally shaking because of how bad it scared me. xD

Yeah, I was closer than 10 feet, so I was probably listening to over 100db. xD

I'm surprised nobody thought of the Siemens U-MMT or the U-MHU... I once got an ear bleed in school from those...

One of the loudest alarms I ever heard is the Simplex 4040.

Could be set on low volume but I don’t think they’re as loud as wheelock or system sensor horns

I think the fact that I'm autistic and used to be terrified of the fire alarm at my nursery (one of those level crossing sounding ones, more common in the uk I think) is the reason why I'm a little interested in it today.

My hometown high school has NS and RSS sideways with 2 exceders that replaced dead NS all over the building and they’re hella loud.

Compare them to old school vibratone horns like the Simplex or IBM 4030 or Simplex 4050 it would crush the modern day alarms lol. That's what I wanna see next. Good luck powering it they require weird AC voltages to power them. I believe the 4030 uses 12VAC and the 4050 uses 24VAC.
