Palos Park, IL Thunderbolt 1000T ~Siren Test~ | Too Many Growls | 8-4-20

[@TylersSirensandEAS]

That is way too many growls. At first it sounded like they were going to do attack but then it didn’t happen. That was nice of them to stop mowing the lawn for the test. Nice video!

[@purpleviolet207]

At first it really did sound like it was going to sound off in attack signal.

[@TylersSirensandEAS]

Purple Violet it honestly did because it wound up completely then wound down and started doing growls after.

[@purpleviolet207]

@tbolt siren lover 1003 Yeah. IKR. Poor little Fedelcode is so upset and crying these days.

[@TheSirenSeeker]

it's trying to do fast wail.

Thunderbolt Be Like, "I'm gettin to old for this kind of stuff, gonna growl instead". Awesome Video!

Fix the damn agastat! That’s the issue. Great video!

[@United_HVAC_and_Fans]

How is the agastat the issue? I thought it was the timer.

[@pennsy77]

@@United_HVAC_and_Fans Agastats interfere with whatever is being used as an activation source's attack signal if not properly bypassed or wired. Tinley park wired their agastats to the rotator relays in the FCs which is why their thunderbolts act like they do. Jeb does the same thing.

[@United_HVAC_and_Fans]

@@pennsy77 interesting, so the lower the agastat, the longer it will peak? Or the higher the agastat, the more it will wind down?

[@pennsy77]

@@United_HVAC_and_Fans If you bypass the agastat and wire it up properly it doesn't matter what the time is. If you were to manually perfect the agastat? It'd sound fine. If it was too short the blower and rotator cut out prematurely

[@United_HVAC_and_Fans]

@@pennsy77 hmm, cool. Now i know if i get a thunderbolt, i will know how to wired it.

[@garyhisgun4996]

Would think the Timer would get fixed and if not the city should consider a 508-128 or 2001-130

[@Midwest_Sirens]

Cool! It weird how thunderbolts always do growls for fast wail

[@pennsy77]

usually that happens when the agastat is set too long, so it just growls nonstop.

[@YourAverageMODude145]

@@pennsy77 it happens when you forget to merge two wires on the agastat

Looks like the chopper was replaced at some point, the chopper cap is different color than the rest of the siren

Bad collector rings?

[@fandude2246]

No, agastat and FC timing for fast wail messing with each other causing it to growl repeatedly

[@United_HVAC_and_Fans]

Pretty much underpowered wail. This actually got replaced with a new head.

[@joelrobinsonwxsrn]

Lazybolt!

[@traintraveler5413]

Apparently people say this is fast wail. Probably because it might have an FC controller.

[@fandude2246]

Yes it is fast wail. The agastat is set too low so it messes up with the FC fast wail timing causing it to growl repeatedly

[@YourAverageMODude145]
