It really seems like yesterday that the Advance made its debut...back in 2007. These L-series devices are really cool, a nice mix between the original "classic" design, and the easy to mount design of the Advance series. Additionally, I like the return of the horn AND piezo sounds, similar to the original. The new ring design and mountable colored lenses are really neat. Basically, it's a cool versatile design that can be used in just about any application. It will only be a matter of time before these invade most buildings. I'm excited to see my first one at some point, and I'll probably nab one at some point in the future. Admittedly, I really like the Advance design, and really like this design.
My school’s fire alarm system is getting replaced. It used to have Simplex TrueAlerts/QuickAlerts and Simplex Single Action pull stations, but they are getting replaced with System Sensor L-Series and either Notifier or Firelite pull stations (idk which brand). They have yet to replace the panels, along with the other remaining Simplex alarms and pull stations. Also, the weatherproof devices are a SpectrAlert Advance and a 6 inch Potter bell. I have a feeling the Advance will just be replaced with another Advance, but idk what they are doing with the Potter bell yet. Also, the reason behind the system getting replaced is because the school got struck by lightning, which made the original fire alarm system no longer functional. We haven’t had a fire drill yet for that very reason.
BOTH the narrow and wide versions can be flush mounted or surface mounted. The narrow model is available for just a single-gang box, whereas the wider alarm can be mounted to a single-gang or square electrical box. The purpose of the narrower alarm is for systems that have single-gang boxes (like where an EST Genesis was originally installed without a trim plate). This allows more systems to have notification appliances with a smaller footprint (becoming a trend in new systems).
I like how the one that has the back box exposed looks like a System Sensor classic and the one with the back box inside the wall looks like a System Sensor Advanced but even though they are the L-Series of the advanced alarm
Wrong, the thinner ones are not specifically designed for surface mounting. They are simply meant for mounting on single gang boxes, just like how EST makes single and double gang Integrity strobes.
1:58 I think what you’re trying to tell us is that it’s meant for single gang back boxes I personally think it’s meant for retrofitting So if a system used EST genesis’s they don’t have to cut up the wall too much
They already have the L-series horn/strobes in the renovated cafeteria/dining hall at my college's Student Center (Notifier AFP-200 system) and in some stores at our local mall (Notifier NFS2-3030 system.) And my aunt's high-rise has the speaker/strobe version (another NFS2-3030 system, replacing a conventional Notifier system from the 90s with Wheelock MT4-24-WM horn/strobes.)
Why would you need a different color strobe for an agent release alarm? Usually an agent release would be triggered because of a fire suppression system, so the agent alarm would sound in the event of a fire as the fire suppression system activates.
These alarms are very cool. I like the design and the ability to easily change the strobe lens; that's a really good idea. Maybe they'll make an LED model in the future? Although I'm surprised at such the low current draw for a xenon strobe; certainly a first in that respect. I also like how they revived the 3000hz tone from the classic.
3:56 - Let's say you didn't want a fire alarm, you wanted an agent release alarm. Watch this. Take an "agent" cover stick it on, snap it in, it just snaps right in and BOOM! You have an agent alarm. MIND BLOWN!!! (This was only meant to be a joke. I hope you found it funny!)
The p2grl can be flushed mounted as well. The small one can be better with the small back boxes but as with the p2rl, it can also be on a small back box as well. But I seem to see the small one kinda useless
My local target used to have regular spectralert advance ceiling mounts, but now they have ones similar, but now they're larger and have the horn just like these. Are they the L series perhaps?
My dad's office building suite was forced to upgrade to a whole new fire alarm system this year they got these horn strobes in each of the offices and than spectralert advances wall mount in the hallways and they synced well together couldn't tell the difference between the two
I have these l series in my apartment complex..horn strobe and horn only hooked to a silent knight ifp-100 addressable panel with sk photo smoke/heat detectors... they sound exactly like the regular p2r advance but louder lol
They have an L-Series at my school! But no agent release alarm or general evacuation alarm. Just a fire alarm. Where I live there is a high chance for earthquakes. So they should make those kind of alarms.
Strobe notification if I were to use these in a building: Green: Medical White: Fire Blue: Lockdown Yellow: General Alert/HVAC Shutdown Red: Weather Alert
This is my favorite video by S.E.R Safety.

Nice! Your lucky to be the first collector to have one of those!
TechP2018 My School has a System Sensor P2RL
Same Same Same
1:58 the thinner one can also be used in compact spaces. (for example in between a door and a wall)
Annnnnndddddd I want it. lol you have gotten so much better at editing!!! I love your videos!
Agreed
I never knew you were a fire alarm guy as well!!
Cool! I realized that the smaller one has the system sensor classic design and the bigger one is more like a spec-advance™ Design

@@MaryGarcia-yd9wp Wdym?
I've been out of the fire alarm game since TH-cam's transition out of channel design and such. It's nice to see they still evolve.
The style and the fact that there are narrow and wide versions are like a wink and a nod to the Space Age AV-32 and AV-34.
So pretty much another Spectralert Advance you should do a comparison of both the L series and Spectralert Advance
5:19 the horn seems like it's trying to be a kidde smoke alarm ripoff
Thinh Le 3.1KHz
It sounds like spectralert advance
@@oofernoobynoob6866 and similar to the the classic
@James Upchurch listen at 5:19
Nice! I was wondering when they were going to release new alarms.
Builder the Mixed-Up Files can you come and get me give me one of those alarms
@@carmengonzales3661 Ebay is where you'll find them. Don't just ask people for alarms.

He said the thinner ones are for mounting on a Single gang back box
Very futuristic looking very nice
By the way love your vids been a long time subscriber
Love your vids keep up the great work
Nice I love these and the classics! By far my favorite alarms. this is my favorite video.
5:19 it sounds like nest protect and smoke alarm
Awesome! Not too surprised they used the same tone as the previous Advance series.
firefreak57 i am suprised they used the same old tone
I love this video,it is so interesting
Also, I LOVE the new blue box.
I love you fire alarm guy
I love you fire department

No. This is used for back boxes that are mounted to the surface. Therefore he is right.
@@ryanwoods4691 I think these exist If aesthetic is a concern.
@@SomeDudeWithAnExitSign Also true
I was in a hotel in Utah and they had the L series of alarms (the flush mount version)
The first tone sounds exactly like the SpectrAlert Advance what the second tone is not sure.
Gary Beltz I think it sounds like the SpectrAlert Classic and second generation's 3000 Hz setting
Gary Beltz Kind of sounds like a gentex gx90

What is the Greensboro for
Can't wait for the Low Frequency versions
they do look really cool though. They are bringing back the spectralert classic design kind of:)
They look........ Interesting. Very original design.
i love how you can change the alarms
These alarms are very cool. I like the design and the ability to easily change the strobe lens; that's a really good idea. Maybe they'll make an LED model in the future?

Probably in 2027 or 2030 there will be a LED System Sensor Notification Appliance
There is a LED model of the L series!
This is super cool 👍😎😎👍

(This was only meant to be a joke. I hope you found it funny!)
It's like a spectralert advance but it's not really an ear killer and it has a kidde smoke detector sound
The p2grl can be flushed mounted as well. The small one can be better with the small back boxes but as with the p2rl, it can also be on a small back box as well. But I seem to see the small one kinda useless
We have the p2rl at my school. But there is only one of them. We have specter alert advances, wheelock as and ns, and the Edwards 892b
Its like spectralert advance and spectralert classic had a child
3:56 those things are used to make the alarm a "Different" alarm.
I wonder if multiple units being coded on a Sync•Circuit (R) would make the long initial burst before synchronization, like the Advances...
It doesn't happen anymore on those. They fixed that issue with the 2 blasts.
Do a demonstration on how would you wire a wheelock safe path 4 to the ms-9200udls.
How'd you get these? I want one and can't find any anywhere!
He doesn't have any blue point stuff. You're thinking of another person on TH-cam.
firefreak57 It is on ebay.
firefreak57 LOOK ON AMAZON AND TYPE SYSTEM SENSOR P2GRL or SYSTEM SENSOR P2RL
I really like the new alarms!
I like the interchangeable strobe color and bracket plates!
3:17 Do you know where I could get those?
cool! do you think that they will install these instead of the Spectralert Advance?i hope not.
whats the model of the accesories you got for them. Like the colored strobes and trim plates.
why does the green strobe say "-65%" is that the lost candela due to color change?
Isik A. Yes it is
Yes
Can you test it with the simplex fire panel
I’m getting a system Sensor CHSRL (l-series chime strobe) and will it sound different than the the spectralert advance chime strobes?
My local target used to have regular spectralert advance ceiling mounts, but now they have ones similar, but now they're larger and have the horn just like these. Are they the L series perhaps?
Y
How do you get these? Did you email them or did they reach out to you? Cool video, by the way!
Where did You buy it I have checked the system sensor website
do they have a outdoor version or a strobe only or a horn only? where did you get them?
for those who are wondering what he means by directly mounting to a back box he means the back box is not in the wall but mounted on the wall
My dad's office building suite was forced to upgrade to a whole new fire alarm system this year they got these horn strobes in each of the offices and than spectralert advances wall mount in the hallways and they synced well together couldn't tell the difference between the two
awesome!!
Thank you!!

It sounds like a Spectra-Alert advanced (the first snd 2nd tone) the 3rd and 4th tone sound like a Mircom alarm
Smoke detector alarm with that high pitch
5:19 the horn is trying to be the Gentex commander 1 horn in a different body
Where do you get the letter brackets and lenses
Do you know the name of the strobe covers? (As in SpectrAlert PC2R.)
It'd be cool to mount the smaller one on the spectralert classic plate
I love these fire alarm coding
Very good horn strobes (and video)!
When were these introduced?
Is it as loud as the original spectralert advanced?
Yes but a bit less quiet and smoother pitch while the advance is more louder and more choppy pitched
I just got the SPSRL and the P2WL-LF!
5:18 kinda sounds like a smoke alarm
Awesome video! How did you get all of those alarms?
The tones are a mix of the system Sensor spectralert classic and spectralert advance.
What is the name to the sand at the very end of the vidieo
Is no one gonna talk thats A M O N G U S ?
I have these l series in my apartment complex..horn strobe and horn only hooked to a silent knight ifp-100 addressable panel with sk photo smoke/heat detectors... they sound exactly like the regular p2r advance but louder lol
How do you remove them when you no longer need it?
Is like a Spectralert Advance but with a different design and more tones
Why is the L-series a bit quieter than the Advance even though the sound is the same?
They have an L-Series at my school! But no agent release alarm or general evacuation alarm. Just a fire alarm. Where I live there is a high chance for earthquakes. So they should make those kind of alarms.
Yeah like it sounds like that, I love the strobe and the covers for the alarm. Nice thing!
wait. is the l series the replacement for the advance series?
or does it replace the classic series?
It replaces MOST of the advances, notice how some of the advances are discontinued and some are not.
You should review the new LED L-series
Love it 😍
Strobe notification if I were to use these in a building:
Green: Medical
White: Fire
Blue: Lockdown
Yellow: General Alert/HVAC Shutdown
Red: Weather Alert
What is the model number on the 3rd box? My son wants one for his birthday
Where/How did you buy these?
1:38 THATS THE SIZE OF MY HAND 😂
That's A Cool Alarm
Did you know there is now L Series Low Frequency Sounders?
It's true, look on System Sensor's website.
AMAZING!
i love the design
I dont know how to order those.
Can you help me?
I like the one with the word fire
What would an alert rss strobe with a yellow cover at an army college be meant for
How do you get demos do you get them free
For me the strobes are
Red: agent release
Yellow: alert
Green: medical
Blue: police
White: fire
My dads office suite these in all office suites and they got the small ones flush mounted to the wall
