Classic Siren Recordings - Thunderbolt 1000T 5/4 alert

[@SirensofeastDetroit]

I recently in February took a picture of this siren and its been my phone wallpaper

[@Henry_Channel84]

This unit is located on a abandon factory in Madison Heights, MI. This unit has been inactive since 2010 (14 years). So yea, located on John R Rd, Madison Heights, MI.

i love these reverse wired 4/5s!

[@jebreski]

The siren is still up but is decommissioned. There is a 2001 near the street that replaced it

[@Cnw8701]

That wind down is incredible! This video still never fails to impress me 15 years later!

[@mitch.daog810]

Exactly

[@Henry_Channel84]

Guess what, there was actually another position where you could also record this Thunderbolt too! Although that is at a middle school so yup.

This was Eric Laskowski’s (el1998p71) video from 2007.

[@EastDetroitMusic-Sirens3000A]

This is rightfully owned by Eric Laskowski. This is located on top of the abandoned coal power plant in Madison Heights, MI, this is actually originally uploaded by Eric Laskowski on Facebook/Meta.

[@MasenMonster]

Do you have a Google Maps location?

[@jebreski]

The building was actually an incinerator, not a coal plant

I also have the video of his second one with the 2001 sounding off near by. This was probably my first reverse-wired 4/5 Port 1000T I've heard off of YT. Of course back then, I never knew anything about "reverse-wired" drive motors that operates the blower.

5/4 port lmao

[@EastDetroitMusic-Sirens3000A]

That's the Chopper Port, it's no different than 4/5.

[@EastDetroitMusic-Sirens3000A]

Hey um, I've got one question. Do you have any permission to reuploading these with the people who originally own some of the videos? Because I know who's video this is and I don't someone to get in trouble here.

[@classicsirenrecordings4440]

Yes, it's Eric's, and if asks me to take it down then I will. It was personally sent to me by him years ago requesting it be posted for everybody to enjoy.

[@sheagoff6009]

I wonder how it got reversed wired? Obviously they did some work on it and screwed it up

[@1000BT]

i think it has a 5M blower

[@Glist_]

6M. Serial number T-791 D

[@1000BT]

[@thespiritstingray9359]

@@1000BT a serial number on a siren can't be wrong. Also there's pictures of the blower and the tag on the blower, 100% a 6m

[@VirtualSimulations-Sirens1954B]

@@1000BT those serial numbers were implemented on them when these were manufactured. There’s also photos of it from the inside and it’s clear as day a 6M. You ain’t foolin’ nobody.
