I need any advice on AR. The relays are not engaging. The timer is working on all cogs. I have another AR. I have switched the relays and all 4 work on the second AR.

The braking you hear is the start capacitors clicking back in. The motor has a centrifugal clutch that keeps electrical contact with the capacitors while starting, but once the motor reaches a certain speed, they disconnect. While winding down, once the motor drops below a certain speed again, the ...

This 2T22 came with the 7.5 HP 3 Phase motor.
The motor is available to anyone who needs it for siren use.

Video of my Homebrew Electronic Q. Siren consists of a 600 watt PEP stereo amp, a cheap MP3 player, and 2 - 1oo watt siren speakers.

I would say the overload breaker was just doing its job. Currently, start up amps is only aboout 19 amps, andrun is only 10 amps. Since he backup generator...

The ramp up was not the problem. The motor would run for 30 seconds or so before popping the breaker. Too much torque for the 5HP motors. I don't know if this matters or not, but the motor and belt drive are in a waterproof enclosure. Also, the pulleys and belts are industrial grade. Since the motor...

Hah! I love it! I hope you don't mind, but I posted this video on the elightbars.org forum...those guys will get a kick out of this! I have tried to register on elightbars.org I click the 18 & older link, and it doesn't give me an option to register, it says that name is already taken. I haven'...

Not really sure yet. It has a 20 amp protection fuse. I am going to have to get out in an open area and gradually turn it up, using an ampgauge inline, to prevent overdriving it. Once I figure out the drive level, I can tweak the treble and bass controls on the amp, and then increase the gain up to ...
