Anyone else having issues with old FSP-851 smokes going bad in batches? We have 2 separate properties with multi node notifier 3030 systems that have recently been experiencing several false alarms a week, sometimes multiple smokes a day all on different nodes. I ran through the sensitivity report and nothing is spiked up. When we replace the smokes with 951’s they’re fine but then the next day 3 more will randomly go into alarm. Im starting to think it’s noise on the loop but it is happening at 2 different properties. Weird situation.

Life update: I was promoted to assistant manager today 😁

It’s been quiet on my channel lately, I’ve been working on a few large scale projects and haven’t had much time to record. I’d love to bring y’all along on the big projects but it becomes cumbersome to record and work to that degree. The battery doesn’t last long enough 😆. Those projects have all been wrapped up and I am back into the swing of things! Stay tuned for some more content 👀

You will never be a good service tech if you don’t own a multimeter. It amazes me how many people DM me for troubleshooting advice and they don’t have a multimeter. We have to raise the standard in this industry. Learning to use a multimeter should be the first thing anybody is ever taught.

This is my POS $30 multimeter from Home Depot and it gets me through 98% of my service calls.
