A throwback: Sentry's website...in 1998!

Sun Apr 12, 2015 9:20 pm

http://web.archive.org/web/199812120209 ... siren.com/

I didn't know that the page had been saved this far back! All the links work too, although they are 1999 saves. Notice that they reused the same image for everything after the 15V.

Also, a look at their site in 2001: http://web.archive.org/web/200104100719 ... page2.html indicates that 2000 was the last year for the 5V, and the previous site design seen in the 1998 link.

Hah! It's neat to see sirens on there that are no longer made like the 5V. Back in the early 2000's I would occasionally request catalogs from the siren manufacturers and some of my earlier ones from Federal still have the AR Timer and EOWS-612 in them. Up until about the time of the -SRNB they were still using a stock photo of the round back 2001 for the picture on the cut sheets.

Does Sentry still take custom orders like they used to? Speaking of which, did they unveil that new prototype yet?

Does anyone know what the F-5 or the F-10 is in the first link?

Yes they still do and no.

I think Sentry is a small enough company that they will always take custom orders. One can pretty much get a skirted, or horn edition of probably any of their siren lineup. I particularly find the larger, custom skirted sirens to be neat. A skirted 40V2T-B would just be THE BEST. Not really sure why, but they'd just look so neat.

Yeah, I remember some of the old site photos showed this one weird horn/skirt combo.
