Cool! I like how the hi-lo is faster than the previous videos.

That is awesome sounding. Love the winding-down hilo.

I like the Hi-Lo a lot in the video. One of the best Hi-Lo videos you have taken.

Great video, Derek! I'm glad that you finally got that siren fixed.

I just finished installing the new Chopper Motor Starter from Federal and I sped up the High|Low from 2 secs to apx .5 secs. The timing just needs to be tweaked a little but other wise it sounds and works great.

Since I had some spare time that day I inspected the other Thunderbolt to find out why the siren stopped sounding High|Low. I tested both solenoids manually and they both work perfectly; it?s just the flasher wheel in the RCM3 that stopped working. If the city will pay for a replacement or new flasher, that siren should sound a perfect steady High|Low.
Interesting. The T-Bolt sounds great now. I've always wanted to see a video of a T-Bolt sounding a proper Wailing Fire Signal. Thanks for the vid. :D:D
