What type of siren is this?

Sun May 12, 2024 7:57 pm

I finally had my dream of getting a siren come true! The only thing that I need help with is the brand and model of the siren. I’m thinking that it might be a E.A Laboratories Sireane Jr, but I don’t exactly know for sure because the tag is missing, or it didn’t even have one at all, as there aren't any screw holes of where one would be. I have some pictures of it, and it does look nearly identical to the Sireane Jr. siren, but it has 12 ports instead of 8. Everything else about it seems the same, but I’m still not so sure of what it exactly is. Is it also possible to figure out the year that it was made as well?

You are correct, that is an E.A Laboratories Sireane Jr. From my research, some came with 12 ports and some had 8.
I don’t have any real sirens, but I will one day. But for now, I just enjoy making homemade sirens.

Awesome! The wiki only says that they only come in 8 ports. Does that help with the year it was produced in?

That's a mistake that's been fixed. The 8 vane, 12 port config is unusual and probably threw the writer of that article off.
