de·fi·ant adj. Marked by defiance; boldly resisting. def·i·nite adj. Indisputable; certain: a definite victory.

A lot of local ambulances have these lights on them and they're very unimpressive. The new rigs with the Whelen AdvantEdge LEDs and 900 series blow...

Sadly, I'd be surprised if you got more than $50 a piece for them. Strobes have essentially gone the way of the dodo save for staunch supporters and...

I'd concur with the beach police, I too have seen a Santa Monica cruiser (in person) with this setup. What are people's thoughts about using amber...

Early amber Whelen Vertexes were white LEDs behind amber domes. They produced the lime amber that matched their beacons and Edge bars. The newer ones...

I agree to a point. There's adequate warning power, optimal warning power, and then there's excessive warning power. The FDMH rigs exceed this into...

My thoughts exactly.

I will say this - I love the sound of the Q. Only one rig in my city has one so it's a treat to hear it spin up, never fails to bring a smile.

Not hatin', the poster was just intended to poke fun at what I feel is an obnoxious extreme. I know this is a board of light and siren fanatics but I...

Oh well that makes it much better then! :rolleyes: It's still ridiculous, unnecessary, wasteful, and probably horribly aggravating for residents...

They put FOUR Q sirens on one truck. Yes, really.

Not a fan. The peak is too high and the whole tone sounds very synthetic. A Unitrol tone it ain't. I still think Carson sirens have the best...

I don't have standing water in my bar (at least I sure hope I don't!) but I do get condensation. I've learned to just live with it, it doesn't...

There's a municipal cement mixer around here that has Vertexes behind the side air intakes on the hood. I guess they didn't want to drill the...

I just tested a WeCan 6 program on my Liberty and it worked 100%. I need to program more functions and modes but it seems to be working fine so far....

Flashing a light faster doesn't make people think the situation is any more urgent. There's a reason KKK standards for ambulances haven't changed for...

Yep. I actually phoned Whelen today and spoke with a sales guy, and asked him to pass along the recommendation to keep this pattern in the lineup. We...

Can anyone give a more detailed explanation of the flash patterns with respect to the amount of LEDs firing? Can you scroll through patterns that...

That's retarded. Whelen is out to lunch if they think this new rotating "technology" is worth a half grand a shot!! If I really want rotators that...

It's neat and all and precisely what I'm looking for, but I'm not impressed with the unspoken push to buy all their latest and most expensive stuff...

YES! Beautiful, now ladies and gentlemen take note of this video and how a lightbar SHOULD be configured. Can't wait to see your Freedom all synced...

Thumbs up on the Cannon Plus. Anything that gets the light closer to a reflector's focal point is positive. If you were able to squeeze some LEDs...

If they have five LEDs concentric with a diffused circle in the middle they are Whelen PAR36 LED heads, combination spot/flood. I just installed one...

The unsynced pattern looks messy to me. Turn the bar on and go back 300 meters, see what it looks like. Most effective pattern I ever saw was a...

Whelen does but Storm could be right.

You should all know I'm not one to turn down more lumens of white light, but in this case I don't know. We've had six feet of snowfall this year an...
