Nebraska Federal Signal Thunderbolt (rotator broken)

[khfan96]

Where in town is this siren located?

[KSE828]

NICCEEE i love the creepy whir when it starts up. Sooo ominous. LOVE FUCKIN T-BOLTS!!!

[murrfarms]

That's terminal 6, 7 is one step higher at around 230VAC.

[DigitalEagleInc]

The "junk" Ur referring to is the T-125, & the 1003 is still there.

[murrfarms]

T-125? You mean the T-128? If you're talking about the ASC Tempest sirens, there's no such thing as a T-125.

[DigitalEagleInc]

yeah thanks I ment to say that naturally.

[murrfarms]

Lol that's no problem, I was just a little confused about that for a second.

[DigitalEagleInc]

:)) geez that was a fast respose

[TheFiremansavage]

umm actually yeah there is i have a friend that works for american signal company and they make those kind of sirens

[murrfarms]

I'm a dealer for American Signal, and there's not, nor was there ever to my knowledge, such a thing as a T-125. There are only four Tempest sirens, and those are the

T-112, T-121, T-128, and T-135 AC/DC.

[Siren1000T1]

That must be on Chopper level 5.

[heinwinkle]

Do they use the Hi-lo tone on this 1003?

[Pup1234567]

technically it can, but they probly dont test that one nemore. r u refering to the hi-lo or the attack mode?

[carexpertandy]

Did you report the broken rotator yet?

[PGMEagle]

Sounds like this siren is located near a school playground

[KOMPgirlRyan]

Yes, it is. I wonder if that is why it doesn't rotate. It would be extremely loud when it would be pointing at the school. That being the case, I wouldn't think they would have placed it so close to the school. *shrugs*

[FBSCommunications]

hmmm there's a Thunderbeam within 75 feet of a Middle School in my town

[LNERMallard]

They should put a 2001 rotator in there. Tbolts and 2001s use the same rotator, and it would be cheaper than to just replace the whole siren.

[cheetawolf]

or just get a new belt motor or gearbox!

id never soil an endangered thunderbolt siren with parts from its killer >:O

[twotailedavenger]

Let's hope!

[TheFiremansavage]

no they atually dont otherwise they would still make the thunderbolts

[LNERMallard]

You're right, actually. Only the older 2001s used thunderbolt rotators.

[dockwellian45]

@KOMPgirlRyan There's a siren ON TOP of my school.

[carexpertandy]

Just what I needed to see. A TBolt 1003 with a broken rotator. I've seen lots of other videos of thunderbolts with broken rotators and I have seen one myself. Is this the reason they stopped making them?

[rickapril04]

Cool video!

[miredian]

She's got a bow-tie - ever hear the different alert modes? hi-lo signal?

[KOMPgirlRyan]

Yes, I have heard the different alert modes. This one was just steady alert" Personally, I like High-Low"

[Siren1000T]

I love the way how Thunderbolt 1003s sound like that. Nice video.

[HILARYFAN06]

sweet

[CoolBalla15]

Great video! It's pretty sad that the rotator is broken. Hopefully it gets fixed.

[KOMPgirlRyan]

I plan on reporting the broken rotator to the city. It is important that they know so it can be fixed.

[CoolBalla15]

Good thinking.
