r/AirRaidSirens

It was raining out when I got the pictures earlier. I officially documented it in my book. So happy I finally got an ACA Screamer S-10! I hope I can capture it being tested. It's not too far from where I live, so that hope should be a probability.

Edit: It is not a rare siren. I saw wrong

This is probably the clearest picture I have ever gotten. Beautiful siren. The only thing that i am unsure of is if this siren is a single tone or duel tone. It's honestly hard to tell

A new and completely revised New York Statewide Siren Map has been created, with the inclusion of previously unreleased testing times, updated and corrected locations which oppose other maps, as well as over 250 newly discovered locations which you can not currently find on any other publicly released New York Siren Map.

With over 2,300 pins, this map was done with the combined effort of ten individual users, therefore there is no sole creditor. If you have locations to add, please reply here, DM, or fill out the Google Form listed in the map description, and me or an editor will get back to you as soon as possible.

Currently, we are working on adding more photo/video media per each location, but that does not affect the accuracy of the locations. This map also does not include misnomer siren models, as other maps do, to help prevent the ruthless spread of false belief and misinformation. Upon inspection of all other known maps for the state, It can be concluded that many of them are in need of much work, but for the meantime, this map will serve as a reference.

Made by New Yorkers, for New Yorkers.

You probably never heard this but if you're confused on where it is it is the thing on the right that kind of looks like a trash can with horns on top of the weird pole

(Don’t mind the text i blocked that is my real name)

I’ve finally achieved a goal of mine and got my hands on this dual tone Thunderbolt. This is my first Tbolt and I’m so excited to get it ready for siren-con!

As you can see in the pictures, it’s in pretty good condition (at least I think so) but at some point someone installed 3 pronged plugs on the chopper and rotator wires.

The guy I got the siren from didn’t know very much about it, all he could tell me is that he believes it’s from the Louisville Ky system. He also said that the changes to the wiring were done before he got it.

I haven’t been able to get any further information about the siren from the previous owner and so, here I am asking you guys…

Does anyone recognize this TBolt?

other info

It looks like the rotator motor isn’t original

The blower motor is missing

The back corner of the rotator box is dented

Appears to be single phase, came with the RCM1B pictured

I didn’t take a picture of them, but still has the original diagrams on the inside of the door of the RCM

Still mounted to the wood pallet like structure with the original wheels

i've always wanted to make a video like this but i didn't wnat to use ai so i just decided to learn blender for 2 weeks lol
