Welp I think it's time this one finds its way to the garbage. To quote myself, "Ohhhhhhh that was awful!"

If that was caused by bad batteries, then that is the best battery fault I've ever heard!

Sounds like a piece of some poorly made electronic music to me in its current state.

Aargh! That thing definitely needs maintenance prescribed. Badly!

Well that is one of the most interesting failures I've seen in a while.

Now for what happened to it (as a joke), it probably had a few too many drinks that tasted like cherry cola with a woman named Lola who talks like a man at a club in Not-So-Ho (Props to whoever knows what song I was nodding to!)

This one's a unfortunate lil' number... I don't know if it is the drivers or the controller that are/is dying.. But it seems like it is about to die out soon.

It's on the 'hit' list I am sure. I think this is the only electronic siren left in the system. All of the Modulators have been removed--they were actually the first to go. The other AL-4000 that was having issues a few years ago was actually swapped with a 2T22.
