These are the Tooele county warning sirens that go off every Wednesday a 4:00. I know these are Whelen 2700, 2800, or 2900 but I don't know which kind. And I've never heard this alert tone. Sorry I couldn't get a shot of the siren, but I think they have ten cells. The nearest one from where I filmed this is probably a half mile away.

  • heay crunkeyjimmy5427 can you tell me what the man said in the voice?.

  • Of course. It says "this is a test. this is a test of the Tooele County Emergency Warning System. This is a test, and only a test."

  • Very nice. Those whelen sirens have to be Whelen WPS-2800s. The 2900s sound the same too but I have to guess that the siren being heared is one of the 2800s. The 2700s sound completely different then that. The 2700s are more like the imitation of Whelen 3016s.

  • i hate hose sirens so boring sounded tho protection good. i more of a thunderbolt guy

see all

  • Ah... Tooele county! :D

  • @VIXI2008 They also blow up wwii bomb stuff here

  • IS IT NUKETOWN :P?

  • this is a whoop tone

  • i agree on the versions, but, i don't like thunderbolts. i like some fed sig more, but whelen is my go to electrical siren.

    but i see or hear another thunderbolt, or learn it's replacing a whelen. nope, not making me happy.

  • see, our message just ends with "this is only a test" that announcement sounds like some serious line from a movie like (bad example) "you have 10 sec, and only 10...or else one of them gets"

  • so romantic...

  • this sounds like the lockdown siren at my school [well, i think it does] heh, i love sirens, they just freak the living crap outta ya, heh i like our alarm [sydney cbd] heh

  • i hate whelen 2700

  • Yeah I agree. Here's a graph to tell versions.
