Can a leafblower supercharge a Thunderbolt siren?

[Thewoog34]

Did you use an ordinary handheld leaf blower that you can pick up for about $50 or did you use one of the huge, very powerful backpack style leaf blowers that cost around $400-$500?

[nickman888]

You didnt give it a chance to go full speed

[Blue10AEMia]

@nickman888 It doesn't matter, it ran out of air before it hit full speed

[Nicktendious]

What if you combined both the shopvac and the leaf blower all together?

[Xeadin101]

Most thunderbolt videos make the sirens appear smaller than intended. Seeing this video makes you appreciate how large these things are :)

[hootergirlsrhot]

whats the PSI needed for the thunderbolt

[HardDriveGuru]

Call me a noob, but what's supercharging?

[10cmsub]

@HardDriveGuru supercharging is when a sien uses a blower to make it louder

[HardDriveGuru]

@10cmsub Ah, that makes sense. Thanks!

[TheFiremansavage]

@HardDriveGuru OMG, it mean when you hook up the blower to a thunderbolt

[HardDriveGuru]

@TheFiremansavage I know that now. But we all have to start out somewhere, right?

[TheFiremansavage]

@HardDriveGuru yep, my friends daughter thaught a thunderbolt was a flower at first, and i didnt know waht the blower was

[HardDriveGuru]

@TheFiremansavage xDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD At first I got everything royally confused, but now that I've been into sirens for a while I can usually make a decent guess. :p

[Droideka133]

It's loud enough for a small town. Good alternitive.

[green0900]

Cool!

[FanFan61618]

nag of shame

[LNERMallard]

I'd have to say that the leafblower was a bit louder.

[Nelso90]

The 1000 is really potent cause it's single tone, and it hits you with one BIG frequency.

That 1000T sounds great though!

[CoolBalla15]

Man, that sure is loud! Great video, Jeb!

[80fireman]

Ian, in the beginning, it looks like ur humping the shopvac hose lol

[murrfarms]

Maybe I was... LOL jk

[EvanToTheFutureDude]

YES! Nice T-bolt! Cool color. Very rare.

[JRCollinsfan]

It was yellow, He pinted ithatway.

[EvanToTheFutureDude]

Oh.

[Blue10AEMia]

No it was white originally

[whelenvortexr4]

Try the Oreck

[Blue10AEMia]

Risk free for 30 days?

[whelenvortexr4]

The Oreck is the best vacuum you can ever get

[kb3mzw]

Was she originally painted black or is that a personal aftermarket application?... after retirement that is. LOL If you can get a-hold of an industrial strength centrifugal blower and hook it up that would certainly be one hell of a "roar".

[Blue10AEMia]

I have the single phase roots blower for this siren.

[EdwardTelevision]

Awesome!

[lumpysnake]

Not only can you feel it in your chest, but pretty much every other part of your body, Including your shoes! You guys should try standing About 3 feet in front of the horn. Thats what I did with my 1000 and its like a Full body Massage using sound! Great vid Guys!

[Siren1000T1]

Looks like it works.

[murrfarms]

HAHA I look like a retard in the first part. That fucker was loud even if it was starving for air at its top end.

[Blue10AEMia]

We both look like retards trying to supercharge a shop with a leaf blower.

[Blue10AEMia]

shop vac*

[murrfarms]

Lol true that, but to hell with it, it was still fun!

[JerryMopar]

hahah ian, i noticed you said somehing to jeb like "l can feel it in my chest" looks like it was pretty loud anyway.

[murrfarms]

LOL that's exactly what I said when I was waving my hand at my chest like a retard :P I was also describing how it was actually making my eardrums beat like a drum on the very end of the wind down when it started pulsing air.
