SpectrAlert Advance Chimes (Happy 2017!)

Here's to a Happy New Year fire alarm guru's! Let's ring it in with some SpectrAlert CHIMES courtesy of System Sensor. Stay tuned to the end for a "special" feature clip...

[@WheeloveFireAlarms]

That's super cool! I've never seen Advance chime strobes before :)

0:37 lol that shutdown noise😂

[@kenifedy]

1:27 that fire alarm scared me

[@gagoosh66]

It all starts with the lovely chimes and then at the end you get the ear-piercing spectralert advance noise.

[@csxrailfan2]

I would totally want those spectralerts.

[@kfc28371ify]

CSXRailfan2 Me too. They're calmer on the ears.

[@seanjuth]

CSXRailfan2 I have one I just have to make a video about it

[@safteyandscience5314]

[@northernmichiganfireandems4910]

ding, ding, ding, SCREECH, SCREECH!

[@niks_crazy_world]

WhelenSirenFan dude you’re everywhere.

[@Toongeek45]

Wow! I didn't even know Spectralert advances could do chimes!

[@QuentinRichardsthe2012brony]

It's a separate model.

[@alexandersalarms5380]

They can’t it’s a differnt device

[@Ghostly-v4e]

Me neither

Broncos_Fan_96 yup

[@Goldenrod636]

That is something very pleasing.

[@davidredpath4781]

If that was at a hospital, I know which one it is I'm obviously not going to say it but I live around the block from it

[@22megaton29]

Awwww, they sound so cute

[@teamtreat3286]

22megaton not tell the ending is not cute

[@PatriciaMartinez-xt4fq]

Haha Kiss!

[@CraigBaker96837]

00:37 That dying chime sound! That was cool! Guessing the system was silenced there.

[@Lordy-Lord]

Hey I seen you.

[@meghanpouliot8457]

lol Calm chimes the whole time, then "Screech!"

[@sgtdebones]

kfc28371ify Best ending 😂😂😂😭👌😂

[@grand_vacation]

Made me shit my pants lol

[@2ndgenalarmfreak]

kfc28371ify Imma be honest, it scared me shitless

[@silve03]

SGDevotee are you serious

[@silve03]

SGDevotee wow

[@IceBotYT]

1:26 scared me

[@s_rv.]

0:37 I laughed my butt off when I heard it die XD

[@oliversfirealarms8407]

So did I. 🤣🤣🤣

[@selfmadepro2143]

It sounds like a baby bird lol

[@masteraustin5015]

Huh that chime sounds very clam I even though I have these at my school

[@BlueThunderboltsiren]

Ahh beautiful sounds, and then we got the end of the video SCREECH SCREECH SCREECH

[@LtotheWtotheTD]

1:26 regular spectralert advance sound instead of calm chimes

[@EnderShadowborne]

At the end, My reaction: "NOPE!!!"

[@joeycaridi3030]

Meanwhile in a parallel universe: SpectrAlert Advance Horns (Happy 2017!) With the special feature clip being a SpectrAlert Advance Chime strobe at the end

[@boredreindeer5602]

I love that thumbnail, I actually have the horn version of those alarms in the portable classrooms at my current school, except for one that is just a classic, the school itself is just old horns with no strobe, the annex has simplex horn strobe though, also there is a random SA horn in the middle of the hallway and a few SC horns…and one gentex commander 1 in the gym

[@EVERYTHINGER12]

I like how it synced with the strobe.

[@yzy.d4v1d78]

If only these were in all of our schools my ears wouldn’t be bleeding once every single goddamn month

[@bryttafitzgibbons6901]

Yes

[@Oof-zl6lt]

Username_David Blue Sniper I used to have those terrible deaf causing horn strobes in my old school. I have one at the school I go to now but it’s outside. Inside my new school, I have simplex truealerts which are nearly as loud and obnoxious as the spectralert advances.

[@deletedaccount3187]

2× speed = March time

[@niks_crazy_world]

Chime. Chime. Chime. Chime. BEEP! BEEP!

[@NewEnglandElevators]

Though the chimes have a bit of an annoying sound, they are a nice change in pace compared to the normal horn/strobes.

[@canticuentos7035]

I have known you for a long time

[@canticuentos7035]

You are the best youtuber on the entire internet who tests fire alarms

[@jaylensmith6308]

Spectre alert: passive edition

[@Fire_alarm_guy]

they are pretty nice sounding

[@lupine25]

This is how I'd like to have all fire alarms sound! ... although I'm sure that would be counter productive to.... you know.... safety? :)

[@s_rv.]

I just realized that this was published on my Bday :D

[@Oof-zl6lt]

At the end of the video: R.I.P headphone users.

[@iluvmerc]

1:23 what nice peaceful sounding calming lovely heavenl- *n o*

[@The_A_Cast]

We have these same alarms at my office, but on continuous, not on chime. I wish they were on chime because of n continuous, they’re so LOUD!

[@nicoledovel-moore292]

That’s really cool that the building has chime strobes. How come most buildings don’t have them. That would be really cool if most buildings had them.

[@MasonWasHere]

The alarms sounds so cute 😊 But at the end: BREHEHHEHEH

[@gamingwithwilliamyt1341]

I like the chime strobes then all the sudden big screech at the end

[@coshiro1]

Yes I love chime strobes

[@QuentinRichardsthe2012brony]

Do you have some sort of stabilizer on? It seems that it shakes whenever the strobe flashes.

[@Ashuhlee621]

Omg I like those alarms there chime strobes

[@athenaflores5851]

Well, I never heard chime strobes like that.

[@firealarmfan]

The model of the spectalert adavence chime strobe is chsr

[@refve8105]

The chimes: 😁✨✨ The shutoff: 0:37 👾 That one odd fire alarm: 1:26 EEEEEEEE👹👹👹👹👿👿👿👿👿

[@Snowcube]

1:26 jumpscare

[@Bombardier2199]

cute chimes

[@pink3t224]

Holy shit the Spectr Alerts got me at the end. XD

[@AadiPendse]

1:27 You got me

[@boydalexander4652]

This is much better than the advance horn

[@TheJakeman789]

Hard to believe it's been a year since this. Wow

[@matthewgregory8218]

Nice chime music to my ears

[@RobotVacuumCollector-el8zg]

0:36 The fire alarm died LOL

[@scienceguy722]

These chime strobes are actually horn strobes

[@Oof-zl6lt]

Chris Gilliam you’re right about that, but you said there are seven types of strobes, but only horns, only speakers, and only chimes aren’t strobes

[@Oof-zl6lt]

Chris Gilliam and another thing is, horns only are not used outside that often. Usually, outdoor alarms are horn strobes, speaker strobes, and strobes only.

[@Exit911YT]

@Chris Gilliam forgot about Low Frequency Sounders. For example System Sensor Low Frequency Sounder Gentex Low Frequency Sounder.

[@alexsells108]

What were the old fire alarms before the System sensor CHSR Chimes?

[@TheCarson116]

I don't get it: according to System Sensor's website their Spectralert Advance-series chime/strobes were only ever sold with no lettering (for some reason), yet quite a few of the chime/strobes in this video DO have fire lettering. Only way I can figure how that was done was by swapping the circuitry from the original blank housing to one from a horn/strobe that has fire lettering on it (but of course I'm sure no one would actually do that. The lack of consistency between lettered & non-lettered devices in this system does confuse me though).

[@joeycaridi3030]

They also must've used the special fire lettering decals

[@TheCarson116]

@@joeycaridi3030 Oh yeah: forgot that System Sensor sold decal kits for their Advance-series.

[@therealchapdala7131]

The next animatronic in FNAF should be the SpectrAlert Advance.

[@PolishGuy89]

You mentioned in another comment that this is in a hospital, right? Why didn't they require a voice evac system?

[@arizonaherpsandinvertibret5407]

There are noise restrictions for hospitals.

[@Luke202-z8b]

why do i find this cute?

[@AdovenGamer5224]

Seems, although this is a 4 year old video, that these SpectrAlert were on California Code, hence why they chimed down fairly oddly

[@Markthebasketballplayer]

ITS LOOKS LIKE A DORM ONE

[@OckGypsy]

I wish there was a multi-tone version of the Advance.

[@CraigBaker96837]

Cesar Blanco Technically, the CH series is multitone. The CH and CHS series are capable of doing various speeds of chimes and a slow whoop tone.

[@OckGypsy]

What I meant was a mix of horn, chime, and sounder (think the Wheelock MT).

[@JBRProductions01]

Cesar Blanco It would be nice if they made the System Sensor MASS again.

[@elevatorexplorer1950]

yeah

[@mk6_ale922]

Now they made an l-series :3

[@sorrendragon]

Is that something set at the panel? To my knowledge the P2Rs only do temporal or continuous, at the horn/strobe. If so what panel? Also thanks for the 'system screechier" at the end.

[@safetech]

sorrendragon No totally different device type . CHSR's

[@Thunderbolt_1000_Siren]

0:37 What was that!? that was so weird but funny at the same time. I prefer these over the ear piercing original advances

[@Oof-zl6lt]

Thunderbolt 1000 Siren Productions same

[@JoeytheKangarooTech]

Oh hello checkmark

[@SomeDudeWithAnExitSign]

0:59 I hear a spectralert classic chime strobe.

[@VOLTRONDEFENDER4440]

Chimes are so quiet

[@liamnicobuckleyrobinson5364]

At the end the spectralert is now the horn strobe

[@GabesElectronics]

Did you know that this specific type of spectralert advanced is discontinued! its called the p4w-s or p2r-s i forgot

[@crazymomma70]

The Alarm Sounds Like Its Saying Bean!!

[@susansorrentino6130]

They sound soooooooooooooooooooooo cute

[@MrJaden5591]

How the Fire Alarm sound like Chimes? Because you pulled the Fire Alarm went off

[@Firepanel6]

One of my favorite videos and what's the panel

[@connorcatmath2tr364]

2x speed = St. Louis metrolink bell

[@Ashuhlee621]

There sounded like the chime strobe p2rs

[@BlackLightning4547]

Are fire alarms suppose to have "FIRE" lettering on them? In this video, most of them don't. Is that against the code? And the ones that do are custom made. Just because the alarms are red doesn't always mean it's a fire alarm.

[@safetech]

BlackLightning 4547 Not code. At least according to NFPA. Some local AHJ's may require it however. Depends.

[@BlackLightning4547]

SAFETECH that's what I thought

[@seanjuth]

BlackLightning 4547 all of the spectra alerts that come new in box have stickers on them so that you can make it say fire, alert, evac, or agent on them but they only have a 3 year shelf life, so most of the alarms here are old stock some are brand new

[@Oof-zl6lt]

BlackLightning 4547 true. But, that’s not always the case. Sure, at most airports have wheelock mt’s and they aren’t fire alarms because they have no fire lettering on them because they are general signaling alarms. But, at my school there is a simplex truealert that has no fire lettering on them nor does it say simplex or truealert on the alarm either. But schools don’t have general signaling alarms like the airports do. So sometimes alarms that do not have fire lettering on them are fire alarms, and sometimes they aren’t. But those spectralert advances were fire alarms because they were activated by a pull station. And when I had that fire drill in school, it was activated by a panel. But general signaling alarms cannot be activated by a pull station, a panel, or an announciater.

[@Exit911YT]

The SpectrAlert Classic Horn Only does not have Fire Lettering on it.

[@zacharyaxlleduna9391]

I like the fire alarm just broke

[@iatif1995]

1:27 HOLY CRAP A JUMPSCARE

[@GaryBeltz]

Why did the one chime strobe suddenly die out the first time your partner silenced the panel?

[@safetech]

Gary Beltz Just the voltage being cut from the device upon silencing. It's typical with these devices.

[@Kproductions14]

DING DING DING, ITS LIKE CHIME

[@abuahmedsiddique5530]

Can't you go to the exit because there's a fire alarm in the building so you have to evacuate

[@8bits59]

Abu Ahmed Siddique he's a system inspector.

[@JoeytheKangarooTech]

Bruh, he’s a tech

[@TheJakeman789]

Why are some blank and others have FIRE on them????

[@safetech]

TheJakeman789 Just the way they were ordered. They can be made that way.

[@donnahenderson8721]

5:00 there's a P2R in the ending

[@southeastelevators3501]

I have these a lot in my house on my simplex 4100Es panel and they are synced to and outside it a simplex turealerts​ speaker strobe that alerts my neighbors that there's a fire and help the fire department see where the house there responding to is because the light from the strobe gets there attention in my work shop outside I have a Spectra alert advance horn strobe and a Simplex Annouiator

[@patrickhaynes2512]

RaymonTheWolf

[@southeastelevators3501]

Patrick Haynes ???

[@FireAlarmTech9]

I personally hate the pitch of these, it seems too high, and also in some cases these could be way too quiet, or at least the one I heard irl was

[@dcbrogers]

That sounds like a EST Genesis

[@MathBlackDavidBoredbadbooks]

Fire alarm alarm

[@soundfile_exe3859]

0:36 screech

[@matthewgregory8218]

Why is most Spector alerts set in 15 candella? Even advance are.

[@safetech]

Matthew Gregory 15cd is the norm for most applications and is rated perfectly for most modern systems.

[@matthewgregory8218]

SAFETECH what is candella how much of a strobe their is?

[@FireAlarmz1]

The candella is the intensity (brightness) of the strobe. The higher the candella, the brighter the strobe will be.

[@Oof-zl6lt]

Matthew Gregory have you heard of elepisy? If the candella setting is too high, people can become blind.

[@alfonzolockettjr5364]

1.5x speed= Slow March time

[@miguelpadilla42]

The fire alarms do not sound that loud

[@dipeashsuks8876]

I saw these at the beer store but it was white and they weren’t that loud

[@noelsnyder8643]

Advanced chime strobes

[@NJMoo3652]

Personally not a big fan or these chime strobes. Something about the pitch is just incredibly annoying and they don't sound too loud. Nice video though

[@safetech]

NJMoo3652 Yes I agree.

[@GaryBeltz]

Well that's a hospital and in a setting like that you don't want something that's going to jolt people especially the doctors who are performing surgery and of course cardiac patients don't need jolted either.

[@ExitSign250]

Gary Beltz But maybe something better like a CH-70 or an EST Genesis chime strobe

[@mjb1124]

Chimes are supposed to be quiet, but I agree that these have a more obnoxious tone compare to other fire alarm chimes. I guess that makes them consistent with their horn counterparts.

[@GaryBeltz]

mjb1124 I thought the SoectrAlert chimes could be changed to an extent with the tone or pitch but I could be thinking of other chimes.

[@firealarm2903_]

Rare Advances

[@MW-li4mm]

Safetech why cant you pull the bg -12 only switch the alarm it will go off I'm just curious I'm hot being mean I'm just wondering

[@shaynewaite5329]

why do some say fire and some dont

[@brilliantbearyt5187]

It's just how they are made. but it really doesn't matter because it's red and makes noise so usually people automatically know it's a fire alarm.

[@Ashuhlee621]

But it does not have the fire logo on the sides lol

[@alexsiessmann1347]

I'm happy

[@andregomezfan189birthday4]
