I showed the post to my husband, commenting on the simplicity. He jumps up from his chair and excitedly announces, "Wait. I want to show you something!" He's back in a minute with the "old-fashioned" fire alarm, the kind with the location code, and the wheel with the teeth to match the code. He proceeds to show me the device, all the time explaining the mechanics. Interesting, yes, but I just looked at him and asked, "Why do you have this?" "Because it was only $5 at the flea market and I thinks it's fascinating." I've been afraid to ask what else he's collected downstairs, but I do chuckle now everytime I see one of those red plates...and there are a lot them around!Nursery Road Bridge Bloghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12633934932393140553noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4912713243046142041.post-25680294533208558912016-01-17T14:37:20.060-06:002016-01-17T14:37:20.060-06:00thanks for the installer info!
