Hi guys, I was looking at RPI and there are a few Whelens. I always thought that these were cool sirens. Not sure the exact model number and everything (wps-xxxx). Anyway, here are a few pictures. I think there are 5 sirens on campus.

The first picture is a Whelen 2905, and the second picture is a Whelen 2910.

Whelen themselves uploaded video of a story from WNYT-TV featuring these being tested soon after installation.

That 2905 in the first pic seems a little low to the ground O_O

That is actually on the roof of the buildings next to the hockey rink, it's not really that close
