Back in the days when I lived on the Canadian west coast, I loved those massive wind storms and power outages. There was something so exhilarating about watching out the window as trees blow apart and power lines explode. Thanks for making these videos, I have really learned a lot from them.

I know the system was just expanded, but why not add additional remote strobes in areas that need additional strobe cover but have ample sound coverage. Would allow you to have coverage while keeping everything 15cd. You can also include a blue strobe right outside the front door to satisfy that requirement about a strobe marking where the annunciator is.
@nics-systems-electric9 ай бұрын
Because it's not a requirement when the systems not required to be there there are no strobes required in any house no matter when it was built however each bedroom is supposed to have a sound producing alarm no point of having a blue strobe for an annunciator when the fire department won't be responding anyway
