Q: is this a good siren as a starter siren for collecting?
A: Absolutely! It is super easy to control using a web-based application that used Google Maps, And earth to easily figure out noise background levels. And the controls can be easily modified to suit your personal needs!
Q: What Dbc is the Gibon 1800 W siren rated?
A: Unfortunately checking product sheets and articles no Dbc rating could be found HOWEVER one YouTube video states it is rated at 83Dbc.
Q: Is the siren affordable to buy brand new?
A: yes the Gibon 1800 W siren is optimized to be price efficient. there are 3 available packs you can buy the Gibon basic, Gibon option pack 1, 2, and 3. And all come with different modifications.

Today after conducting more research I found out where the Gibon 1800 W siren Got its name now for a littlie bit of context, Gibeon means gibbon in English, is a small monkey living on trees all its life. This monkey has very long upper and lower limbs but has no tail. Despite having a small and round head, it is characterised by a highly developed brain, making it a smart animal. The monkey lives in South-East and East Asia, and it can be found in Bangladesh, Thailand, Malaysia, Indonesia, Vietnam, Cambodia, and China. Ok Now that we know what its name represents lets get back on track to the Gibon 1800 W siren Now the relation these monkeys have to do with the Gibon 1800 W siren. now the article states the relation between this primate and their electric siren like this: Gibbons are the second loudest primates after howlers (lat. Alouatta). They have an enlarged throat sac, which inflates and serves as a resonating chamber. Their voices are so potent that they can be heard up to a distance of 1.5 km. The monkeys are strongly territorial, live in small troops, and they defend their territories with vigorous morning screaming The typical properties of the monkeys and our electronic sirens have led to the naming of our second most powerful line of sirens after them. The Gibon electronic sirens are modular and cost-optimised (comprising small horns and plastic siren boxes) for smaller warning systems. Besides that, they can be used as stand-alone devices. Acoustically, the Gibon electronic sirens do not lag far behind the Pavian electronic sirens.

Now In the Middle Ages, people started to use bells to alert – church bells or special fire bells. Lots of scientists believe that the main function of the bell was not to play music, but to give warning in fact. The bell served as a means of warning the population of impending disasters, public disturbances, or approaching enemies for many years. Over time, cities and towns had grown, developed, and one bell to notify the neighborhood was no longer sufficient. There was a need for new technical solutions in the field of early warning and emergency notification. At the end of the 18th century, the first brave attempts were made to create a mechanical warning device and automate it. A typical example was the fire bell in those days – a heavy load hanging on a rope. When a fire burned the rope, the load fell down and hit an alarming bell. Furthermore, there were other attempts to devise equipment that could respond to temperature change, tension or strain, amount of liquid, etc. In the 20th century, the early warning systems developed rapidly because of WW I and WW II. They became massive and more centralized, covering a significant number of towns and cities and providing an opportunity to inform as many inhabitants as possible. (Now I would put more of the article page but it just discusses some broad info almost everyone knows)

EMA Compact – an ultra-compact and resistant all-in-one monitoring station that, besides the measurement of the above parameters, can send this information to mobile phones or control centres and activate some system elements on its own.
EMA Professional – a high-performance monitoring station that contains all the functions of the compact version but will enjoy its applications in industrial and more sophisticated security systems. It can control valves, motors and actuators as well as communicate with other devices within the system on multiple channels. It can also convey audio messages and act as a siren or radio itself as the need may arise.
EMA Industrial – the most powerful modular monitoring station that is intended for complex and highly-automated systems (e.g. in industrial parks) where loads of data need to be monitored and evaluates at multiple levels. It provides the above functions as well as many outputs, adjustment and automation options, lighting control, beacons and the like.
