I had to move a lot of lightbars out of my collection room to add some more bars, amongst which this Mars Spectra. Still has to be cleaned and repaired as well (the contacts of one rotator unit).
Nice bar, very glad this one joined my collection!

As a (chronologically, at least) mature adult, I have to say: I'M JEALOUS! I'M JEALOUS! I'M JEALOUS! I'M JEALOUS! I'M JEALOUS! WHY CAN'T I HAVE A MARS BAR?!?!?!?!

Those are neat! But what's making the loud thunking noises? I'm guessing the rotator gears. Either way, those are very unique bars.

Thanks, they are simple but yes... very neat.
The noise is coming from one of the rotors, I think that a gear has gone bad but I need to open it up to make sure and fix it.
