[MONEYBOY512]

Really neat dude, im impressed.

[everglow1000]

relee? k'nex? Woww-follow mee on Twitter @pandamarker117

[FACP07]

I still think that this is better than any system that a professional company produces!

[johnwarman54]

can you send me a little tutorial on how to build that control panel of yours? I noticed you built it out of a breadboard, and I can't find any thing online that will tell me how!

I'd really appreciate it if you could send me some schematics!

Thanks!

[luetjensmadden1000]

this inspired me to build my own system

[hyperbaricchicken101]

Does the smoke detector make noise too?

[102Help]

earliest ever 8005?

[KhabiyrDawkins]

i am working on a fire alarm system

[the1realdiva]

You do better fire work than many techs that are older than me. You labeled everything, have a good understanding of electronics and probably know to do a load test with batteries! : ) Good luck with your dreams! You will make it.

[inventormaker]

OMG look at all the tape

[boyercam]

K-NEX IS BRILL USE IT ANYWARE!

[firelitealarms997]

it sounds like a firex smoke alarm horn

[firelitealarms997]

KOOL

[Robobbly]

[102Help]

[Bigpigdotcom]

Wat kind of anunciator is it

[elevators99]

[Bigpigdotcom]

How did you make the panel

[ProwerBot]

Why was the panel thingy... in the ceiling?

[MrSuperMario99]

omg

thats friggen awesome

[johnwarman54]

genius!

[firealarmfreak529]

wow this is older thatn i thought, but still cool!

[davidulala]

Does it actualy detect fire on its own? cause if it dont its half useless lol because if the fire is near the switch you cant use it.

[diegodaudt]

Is that K´nex?

[harrygoozee]

@diegodaudt yup

[Trainmaster1212]

Wow, your voice has changed much since then. Also, is it just me or is that code-3 a tad bit too fast on the 1 second off?

[FireAlarmTech96]

How many rolls of tape did you go through?

[dyncom]

great set up i have made my own based on watching this vid, also mine will send an email via my server and is hooked up to a gsm phone so i will not only get email but a phone call to say there is a fire at home. sweet

[JPfirealarm711]

I remember when this video used to be new. This brings back memories

[iplaygaia]

[elliottveares]

this is a long time ago , video has improved alot since then , poor comment .

[servantlol]

whoa. a fire alarm pull station made out of k-nex. cool.

and you must have been a real genius to actually get those to work!

[pivotous]

[itsNatzHaks]

This vid made me do it, i have 1 made of a standard 1 dallor door bell, but now ive created a pull staitain n all,

[NewAgeServer]

[itsNatzHaks]

i would but i dont have a camera with a sound

recorder

[NewAgeServer]

Thanks!

[jellybutterpeanut69]

wow... waht a friut

[stingle878]

ur smoke alarm should be on the ceiling not the wall !!!!!

[NewAgeServer]

I'm gonna move it.

[TIMOTHY290073]

It can be on the wall.

[Rel06]

I used to have k-nex kits. That's really cool and creative. Kudos.

[LNERMallard]

It's made of LEGOs?!!!

[NewAgeServer]

Nope, it's K'nex and it's no longer on the wall.

[nhfdcadet]

when you get that mass produced, i want one haha

[NewAgeServer]

lol it wont ever be massproduced.

[Aragon159]

You Should move your smoke detector it is within 30cm of the peak of the wall and the ceiling, in that 30cm peak area the air is 'dead' smoke will not reach the smoke detector to provide the earliest possible warning. You should move it to the centre of the room or hallway.

[NewAgeServer]

I know that. I'm trying to get a better smoke detector up there.

[heavymetalmexican]

I gotta give you props man. That's pretty creative. Good Job.

[willbill808]

I agree

[BJ4HAGA]

cool it really works!

How did you do it?

[dcool96]

Haha I install fire alarms and fire superssion systems etc I wish I could just tape the pull stations

onto the wall Heh basic stamp

[cgarner35003103]

Thats awesome, but I think you have a little too much time on your hands.......

[rynprov]

You should get the bells. They sound louder (I hope)

[NewAgeServer]

Nah. I got a new system that is MUCH LOUDER.

[BJ4HAGA]

how did u do it?

[NewAgeServer]

UPDATE: I had to remove the system.

[deafmonk19]

why what happened to the alarm?

[NewAgeServer]

It fell down, and mom was complaining LOL

[danll5]

How many dbs were they?

[NewAgeServer]

i don't know, but NOT VERY LOUD AT ALL.

[danll5]

You should have gone to radioshack and purchase piezos instead of using speakers.

[NewAgeServer]

Well I was trying to build it with what I had for parts.

[danll5]

It is still a nice system hands down.

[theofficalmiga]

LOL

[theofficalmiga]

You should get those Alarm speakers with strobes and hook it up to your control panel, that would be so cool, but make the sound louder!

[JLiza]

Wow your kitchen is a mess....

[NewAgeServer]

?? I never went into the kitchen. I think you were referring to the basement.

[brettman273]

Wow! A working system literally from scratch. Very impressive. If you do eventually get some real equipment, I suggest you hook it up separately and leave this one as is...very cool.

[NewAgeServer]

I had to take it down. The "temporary" tape was letting go and the components were falling down.

[jayhawk29]

That's very VERY creative...very nice!

[Justin80084362]

How did you get the MIZ tone?

[JLiza]

Wow! That is all just friggin impressive! Cool! You must be a genius in the whole frickin electrical field to do that. Wow that's cool. Also, you kind of speak with a southern drawl or so I think I hear. It makes you sound hot. XD XD XD

[NewAgeServer]

Nope. I live in the northern U.S. I just have an "east coast" accent.

[JLiza]

Whatever. It still makes you sound good.

[theofficalmiga]

Not bad! Actually better than my homemade one, but you should add strobing lights.

[alarm997]

cool

[danll5]

Dude thats so freekin awsome! Howd you do all of that?

[NewAgeServer]

LOL not loud enough...

[bowlingstar52]

It's cool! I would imagine if this thing went out on the market!!!

[tyeman200]

Cool!I should try that with my k-nex!!

[NewAgeServer]

The lever moves two K'nex "hinges" which slide down the bar you see behind, flipping the switch and activating the alarm. If you'd like, I could send you a piccie of the mechanism, without anything else showing...
