False Alarm

My dad decided to film a false alarm that happened at his job. Unfortunately, he also decided to worry about how upset I would be that I didn't witness the event. I did not end up getting upset. I was actually thrilled that he filmed it for me.

This one of two times that their fire alarm was triggered by burnt food in a microwave oven. The second time this happened, someone microwaved pizza for 14 minutes! What an idiot lol.

The signals are FOS 6120's. The first one seen was mounted on a Space Age A34 retrofit plate. The other two were on Simplex 2903-9101 retrofit plates.

@abc2VE They probably did this to match the Space Age plates. Funny thing is, this place was where I first saw a 2903 plate (when I was about 3 years old), so the second place I saw them (my old elementary school), I thought it was weird that the strobe was on top.
