Looking at more pictures of them with the original motors, it seems that were in fact dual capacitor motors.
Yea that makes more sense. Can’t wait to hear them buddy!!!
Thanks! Good to see a lot of y'all still are interested in it, as well as the progress on it. Quite a few of people lost interest in it because I "talk about it too much", and others (who aren't on the board, but on the siren enthusiasts Facebook page) are jerks to me because they are jealous of me owning a one of a kind siren. And then also I get a lot of sex jokes thrown at me about it (obviously wont say on here because we gotta keep things Disney and G rated), but lets just say some people say I'm in a relationship with it, as well as more extreme stuff. And there was this one guy who literally harassed me for at least a month about it regarding sexual stuff, and literally obsessing over me, as well as obsessing over talking crap on me. But I told him off finally because I had enough, and some others told him to knock it off, and he finally stopped. But at least I have a lot of y'all that respect me for really liking and enjoining this unique one of a kind gem with a very interesting history and backstory. More progress on the way, expect more updates.
Since you are the OP of this topic I feel it might be appropriate to take this topic into that direction just for a second here:
I run into that too. My model 5 is a rare unit and my thunderbolt was the loudest configuration they came in according to the research I’ve done. But that’s not why people poke fun at me for it. People sometimes poke fun at me just for liking them. (More so in high school though.)
And well eventually I laughed at myself. Said I was the inspiration for the band “sleeping with sirens” and let people have their laughs. Because at the end of the day, I’m enjoying my life, hobbies included, and clearly they enjoy the laughs.
So folks reading this part of it, don’t let someone else moderate how you live your life. (I mean don’t hurt anyone or stop them from living theirs either...) but if something is “weird” and you enjoy it... get joy out of it... well it’s your life and you’re the only one living your life.
Now let’s get back on topic because I super wanna see this thing. Maybe when Cali stops doing what they’re doing (yes I’m in a bit of trouble down there) and if you ever allow it I’d honestly love to see the old thing in person!!!
Own and love a Thunderbolt 1000 and a Model 5.
I have many hobbies and interests. And I love them all.
