I haven’t seen the video but my first impression (and likely other’s) is it’s similar to a tik-tok trend where people steal soap dispensers, break sinks, etc.
Having said that, it could just be a little click-baity and maybe he collects old or “retired” fire alarms, which would obviously be fine.

I know several fire alarm enthusiasts. Fire alarms are acquired after being retired, nobody would damage or steal from an active fire alarm system as that’s a risk to everyone’s safety. People who steal from active systems would be shunned. Most fire alarms enthusiasts get are bought off eBay or similar sites.

That depends entirely on how he is acquiring the alarms.
