Looks like garland finally got their act together....

Here is the one they put at Cecil Winters Park.





Here's the Visualert array.


It wasn't hooked up to power when I saw it and it didn't have any solar panels on it.

Those installations look pretty cool with all those lights! I hope they do the job!

So are the Visualerts supposed to be strobes, halogen, LED, or what?

That strobe on that Vortex looks a little odd, but at least they are on the siren for a good purpose.

LED. The ones in the video were facing up! Was that a siren they messed up on?

There's a VERY quick few frames at :44 with one of the interviewees pointing to an Alertronic 6000. First I've heard of Garland having an Alertronic.

I wonder what they're going to do with it.

All old sirens from garland have been removed and were spoken for. There are no sirens available from garland. I know the guys doing the installations

[siren fan]

Wow thats cool, I didn't notice the red lights on them. They say it's for the hearing impaired when the siren is sounding.

Garland is the second city in less than a year to ditch their ATI's. Those Whelens will be much more effective.
