Whelen Euro Siren in the USA. Secondary Warning or Toy?

[@rescate171]

Tone #38 is very common in the ambulances of the 061 health service in Spain. I didn't know about tone #18, I think it's wonderful.

@elightbars can you make a video on how to make on that custom control head you made?

[@jdcorr714]

I noticed more than a couple tones that I could gladly use as a secondary that I believe would be effective. I especially like the tones I heard with tree parts, I think in many cases they would bring extra attention because they aren't so commonly heard.

[@elightbars]

A lot of these tones bare available in Core and I have played around with them as tone #2 in a dual amp Core setup. You are totally right that the tri-tone ones get attention. People aren't used to them so I think they don't just tune them out.

Great video and siren education.

Tone 9 sounds like a cheery background song from an 8 bit video game

Holy shit, 18s my favorite

I'll keep my Q mechanical siren thanks!

[@elightbars]

Nothing is going to beat a true mechanical siren or a real set of Martin Horns, but when amp draw is and mounting space are an issue, electronic options become more attractive.

damn the dutch ambo horn sounds about as serious as the dutch language 💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀

[@ryanhughes8036]

how do you even get one of these?

[@elightbars]

I found mine for sale on elightbars, but they can be ordered through a Whelen dealer. You can get the "EU" line through US dealers, it's worth searching online too as they pop up randomly. They aren't cheap new, I lucked out and got mine for under $100 NOS.

A toy with an ECE Certification for the Czech republic?

[@SidetableWatchReviews]

Why toy when it's essentially a whelen alphaSL with european tones?

[@publicsafetyinvestigations999]

Why does the CHP need to rig bids to ensure they get ripped off by a sales rep like we found in our investigation?

[@lokilloxjk2]

I think that’s kind of tone, doesn’t fit with the USA culture, here in my country chile 🇨🇱the fire depts have almost 3 siren, a q2b, a Whalen or fedsig, and the hi lo air horn plus the truck air horn ahaha

[@johnnz4375]

Most of them sound unrealistic compared to the real ones, and the 3 tone ambulance sirens where phased out years ago.

[@jeffkardosjr.3825]

4:59 - 5:19 These don't particularly sound like the French sirens.

[@mugsysemergencylightsandsi4553]

Can you get ahold of another one of these
