Another great video! Yes, it would be super cool to see you do a full no power test where you shut off the power to the entire house. Looking forward to your next video.

we used to have run around and look at each one like you do until we got our new simplex 4007 system with the new true alert horn strobes now we just check the panel if we have no alerts for devices failing in the log we can call it a day but once a year we do go around and check all devices by sight just to be sure

Love your monthly testing, reminds me to test my "commercial" system in my house as well ! Regarding the emergency light testing, do you let them run for a few hours to test the internal batteries ? Here in the UK, we have to do 10min, 1Hr and 3Hr duration testing on them. Its interesting to see how the regulations vary from country to country. Keep the great work, its much appreciated.

September testing in case you come back to this video in a month: House: Master bedroom smoke (because I never seen a test on that before). Garage: Tower pull (Haven't seen that in awhile). Or what I thought would be funny, to have your German Shepherd pull a pull station lol.

That's a good one to test. Since it's most exposed to the elements it has the highest chance of corrosion rendering the contacts inoperable.
