here's a 3 min test of my model 2T in attack, I have to hold the attack button down while it's running. that's why at the end it starts back up for a sec after the winddown.

I love the attack signal on 120V =) The wind-down length on yours sounds nice though. One one of mine (I can't remember if it was a 2 or the T-Bolt chopper) the wind down was horrendously short. Changing the bearings out made a huge difference and the siren sounded so much better. I made a video of mine and stuck it on Facebook doing I think 3 cycles, but I was just sitting there counting off the seconds in my head plugging and unplugging =) Mine does the little dance across the floor also.
Yes kids, always mount your sirens to a secure base when powering up on full voltage, lest they go spinning away!

I mounted mine on a piece of plywood so it wouldn't flip over on 240.Adam Pollak wrote:I love the attack signal on 120V =) The wind-down length on yours sounds nice though.

sounds good. Oddly yours moves around much more and runs slower than mine on 120VAC http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nyH_WYwJxLc&NR=1

Re: My Model 2T
I wouldn't try running that at full power unanchored and uncovered. That would be dangerous. That 2T sounds good.EL1998P71 wrote:here's a 3 min test of my model 2T in attack, I have to hold the attack button down while it's running. that's why at the end it starts back up for a sec after the winddown.
