How much do they charge for shipping, say, a TBolt?

I had a dream a few years ago, where I was watching holiday classic "Rudolph The Red-Nosed Reindeer" and Santa came and landed on the island of homeless sirens. The elves pack the sirens on Santa's sleigh and off they go into the night sky.

In the dream, these sirens were being tossed overboard and going right down the chimneys into peoples houses. Can you imagine the joy on the childrens' faces when they wake up in the morning, and find a mint condition 1003 Thunderbolt under the tree with a bright red bow on it? Nonetheless, one of the Model 5 sirens missed the chimney and crashed through the roof, landing on the dinning room table and going off. What a weird dream.

Every time I see the photos of West Shore's old sirens, I always think of that dream.

That sounds like the best dream ever!

I need to take trip way up there and see those sirens for my self,maybe even get one.

You would have to ask them.


Here is a 5 min video of the tones. It has 7.
The terminals are nasty, so I wasn't getting a good connection.
I will replace those.

Great video never knew what a controller looked like on a EOWS and thanks for sharing

Great video! Alternating Wail is always one of my favourite tones!

[Rheems1]

It is amazing, they really do sound like Thunderbolts.... it is really amazing how much like an electronic T-bolt they sound like.

Very nice! Out of interest, where would the 'Whoop' tone module fit into the control unit?

Regards,
Jerry.

That'd be fun to use as a tone generator with my home stereo. Could probably scare most of the neighborhood if I wanted to.

The cabinet had space for 7 tone modules, but only shipped with 6 (unless you ordered a 7th tone). If you didn't order a 7th tone, you'd just slide the Whoop module in the empty space - otherwise you'd just remove one of the other tone modules and put the Whoop one in its place.

Does anyone have soundclips of all the alternate tones mentioned in the manual? I've heard Westminster Chimes, and found soundbites of "Yelp" and "Yeow" in another post, but I'm wondering what some of the others sounded like.

What are the Standard tones for the EOWS:

Alert, Attack, Hi Lo, Pulse, Alternalte Wail, Whoop Are what I can think of off the top of my head.
