Found this buried in a box

So my wife’s family and I were having a yard sale/benefit for Autism and in memory of my brother in law who passed away last year after having a seizure.

Many, many people donated to this cause which apparently included my mother in laws cousin who is a local fire chief.

I found this buried in a box he had donated. A Federal Signal Firebeam FB3 dual speed with the Ultra Flash mirror (missing the 2 end mirrors).

When I plugged it up the plug just fell apart so I hooked it to the battery and spins like new.

My plan is to add a new cigarette plug and I already have it installed in my pov. Even though I have leds, I’ve wanted one of these for a long time so I am definitely going to run it.

Best thing of all, I got it for a whopping $2. Best $2 ever spent.

Also ended up with a Galls hard plastic over the seat organizer which I already have put to good use.

I’ll attach a video of it running on my dash when I get home with better service.

Those Firebeams are very effective. I have an amber one in my truck just for roadside emergencies. I have the mirror like that on my Code 3 DashLaser. Have to say the design is the best dash setup around. Very effective.

I LOVE IT. Very nice blend of old school and new stuff.

Thanks. I’m leaving it on fast speed. The rest of the patterns are slower so this will be on fast speed and kind of break it up.

Still deciding on having the red and clear half domes or making it all red.

Need to find the end mirrors for the Ultra Flash mirror. They were missing when I got it.
