    What is a true manufacturing company? Is it SoundOff Signal?

    I have 4 mPowers on my truck, and they are holding up extremely well, and are very bright, one pair through 2 Canadian winters, one pair through 1. Added 2 Bolt 2s to the grill, and they are the only perimeter light that I've seriously considered hooking up the dimming wire on. They are...

    Fentanyl Overdose or Wussy First Responders

    4 people went down, and hazmat suits were too much? Our SOP is if there is any quantity, hazmat suits. I support that, as I am a patrol shift IC, and don't want to have to knock on a door at o'dark stupid for a next of kin notification.

    Fentanyl Overdose or Wussy First Responders

    We have serious fentanyl problems in my area, with carfentanyl starting to come into the area as well. Most LEOs are carrying Narcan on their belts, with N95 masks nearby or on them as well. Full hazmat response is the SOP if we are dealing with it. It's not a pussy thing, it's getting bad...

    2016 Ram Rebel

    That's the plan. Going to be ordering some amber/green Fusions from Fever, and then I will update this thread. I already have some amber in the mix, so I can run that should I happen across something in my travels.

    2016 Ram Rebel

    Because it hasn't even been introduced as a bill in Provincial Parliament. It would be a couple years before it happens anyway.

    Knock-offs

    I've never heard of one at the manufacturer level. Some dealers will give one, but the industry is extremely competitive.

    Knock-offs

    I really understand why people buy the cheap Chinese stuff...the price difference is astronomical. For a new volunteer, a full brand new setup can be between $600 and $6000 for something not to overkill, but full 360 depending on knockoff or quality. I know used can be purchased for a lot...

    SoundOff Configurator Software

    The nForce bar doesn't look great, but the new mPower bar looks amazing. If I won the lottery, I'd be running nothing buy SoundOff on my vehicle, with bluePRINT. I just can't afford to go that route now.

    2016 Ram Rebel

    I have a Feniex Fusion 600 in all amber on the way for the rear window. Then I will replace the Axixtechs on the grill with different light heads, probably Fusions, something in the top of the windshield and side windows, and probably a 4200 to control everything. It will probably get done...

    2016 Ram Rebel

    Thanks, tsquale. It's going to be much better lit by the end of summer, but it's already more than the vast majority of VFFs in my area: they mostly only run a small dash light and call it good.

    2016 Ram Rebel

    I didn't see any Ram Rebels in this forum, so I thought I'd share mine. I will be adding to this build as time goes on, but this is where I'm at now. The truck is used for VFF response, with green courtesy lights. I have a 12 mile response to the station, and often take it to the scene if the...

    Need a switch suggestion

    I'd seriously consider using Sound Off Signal Intersectors for that project. They are available in amber/green, and have 180 degree visibility. They are expensive, but mount one on the front, one on the back, and have full 360 coverage. If you want to go fancy, get one in amber/green/white...

    Tahoe Setup Ideas

    It would be an interesting experiment to cut the ends of both and join them with some custom shaped black Kydex to match the lines. I'd consider wrapping the Kydex right across behind all the lightheads as well, just to make it match up better.

    New type of Lights

    I love the mPower line, not just because they are extremely bright and great off-axis, but because the lenses are soft. They will take a lot more abuse from road debris then anything else I've seen so far. I have 4 mPowers on the front of my truck, and 2 Axixtech lights. The one Axixtech is...

    NEED HELP! Military poser

    Honestly, the nuclear option is the only option. He has proven he is a liar and has no personal integrity. Anything he says is now brought into question. He does not deserve to be in first responder position, much less a position of leadership. If he is involved in a fire with a fatality...

    Carlos SpicyWeiner's STILL Never-Ending Comment Contest

    I just realized I've never commented here. And now that I actually have authorization to run lights in my POV, due to joining a volunteer FD, I probably should. I'm thinking it may be time to push to have the lighting laws changed here, as courtesy lights pretty much suck.

    Looking for a new duty flashlight

    This light won't fit the bill 100% for your requirements, but I'm just throwing it out as an option. Fenix TK16, 800 lumens, runs off of dual CR123As or rechargeable 18650 batteries, both the mode switch and the on/off switch are on the tailcap. It will latch on or you can use it as a...

    Official Location based warning law discussion thread

    Ontario Canada has changed the rules, and now allows red/blue for all emergency vehicles. I did do an extensive post awhile ago, but that update just came into effect. The remainder is still the same. Cole's notes for anyone who wants the quick update (all lights are flashing lights, steady...

    green dual color lightheads

    They are definitely pricey, but they are bright and pretty impervious to damage from road debris and such. Look around online, you may be able to get them a little cheaper than $100 per light.

    green dual color lightheads

    Sound Off Signal makes green/amber in the mPower line for sure. They are custom order, but don't require a huge order. Talk to your local dealer.

    Wanted Pole Mount Halogen Beacon in Green

    I'm looking for a green pole mount beacon. My deputy chief has a 1943 Jeep Willys he restored, that needs an old (but not necessarily period correct) halogen beacon for responding. The light will need to be shipped to North Bay, Ontario, Canada.
