Whelen Vortex 3Min Alert and 3Min Take Cover, USC Upstate, 11/5/22

[@CentralOHSirens]

435Hz wail sounds so cool. Awesome video!

[@YourAverageMODude145]

Nice vortex video! Not sure why some people don't like these.

[@SirensAndAlarmsOfNorthernIL]

Probably because they replace old sirens like thunderbolts and it triggers the thunderbolt kiddies lmfao

[@YourAverageMODude145]

@@SirensAndAlarmsOfNorthernIL yeah lol

[@HSETM]

@@SirensAndAlarmsOfNorthernIL XD yeah. An old 1000T got replaced with a Vortex years back and the best thing is it's 435hz. The first videos I got of it were absolutely cring as fuck, so sometime in April I'm going to see it(March is a familiar 4004 to me).

[@SirensAndAlarmsOfNorthernIL]

@@HSETM there is a 435Hz 2809 about 4 miles from me which replaced a bolt. It is so loud I can hear it penetrating into the house. You can even hear it in our basement. There is a closer 465Hz Whelen to me and you don’t hear it as well as the 435Hz one which is further by about a mile. That’s why I love 435Hz the most. That Whelen also replaced a Thunderbolt btw

@@SirensAndAlarmsOfNorthernIL ok

[@SirensAndAlarmsOfNorthernIL]

5:52 That HPSA tho

[@CycloneJoey518]

435hz alert makes it sound like an 8 port penetrator and I'm all for it. Also, was that a Hörmann next to it?

[@Gvacs]

I just now saw that lol, has to be, or maybe a cooper waves? (I know very little about these)

[@CycloneJoey518]

@@Gvacs I know a bit more about them as they're very common in the UK. From the looks of it, it has 2 horns, so its probably a Cooper WAVES since Hörmann don't use that configuration. I wonder what it's used for

[@Gvacs]

@@CycloneJoey518 Thought so, I've seen a lot while being in the bases in GA if you're lined up with the horns it's impossible to see them

[@CycloneJoey518]

@@Gvacs Theres an airforce base in my county called RAF Mildenhall who recently installed multiple Cooper WAVES with 6 horns. I was the one to discover that they had whelen ws 1004's before they replaced them. (That's what I thought they were atleast)

[@Gvacs]

@@CycloneJoey518 Could've been ES-1000s (loudoun's 1004)

[@ThunderboltSiren1003]

Nice!
