    What is a true manufacturing company? Is it Feniex Industries?

    The only Feinex product that I use and have experience with is the non Direct Link 4200. I have had it for about 5 years and got if from a great deal Nic @ Fever had on Facebook. At the time, it was the only system that met the requirements for my switching needs at the time. Other controllers...

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

    From my personal experience I have found Federal Signal equipment to be reliable and perform well. Most of the apparatus at my station came equipped with either Areodynics, PA300's, and strobe systems as well. Personally I ran an all blue Legend that I got from Steve A here for about 4 years...

    Whelen Cenator (formerly Ceridian) Series lightbar

    The name change I believe is related to a trademark infringement lawsuit Whelen was involved in, see Whelen v. Ceridian. I am not sure of what the details of the lawsuit are or how it affected the name change.

    Ceridian Series Lightbars?

    There is some sort of trademark infringement lawsuit that Whelen is involved in, see Whelen v. Ceridian, which is likely the reason for the name change. The full case details do not appear to be available yet to provide further explanation.

    Covert Traffic Arrow - Dodge Ram

    So I have been digging through the forums and through youtube, as I know I have seen this done before on a Dodge Ram. After driving myself crazy for several days, I FINALLY FOUND THE VIDEO I WAS LOOKING FOR!!!! And a night time video: This was a custom created traffic adviser, and I was...

    Whelen Short Justice - Custom

    Seeing as you have a Subaru, an option to consider is the SmartTap CF18 Flasher by Diode Dynamics. For the price, you get a decent number of features and a unique warning options. If I see correctly that you have a Crosstrek, the flasher install should be very easy. I'm wanting to get one for my...

    Sirens with mechanical tone

    If we are going with what is currently available, then for me hands down has to be the Carson Mechanical tone. Can't stand Whelen's dying cow "Mechanical" tone, and the EQ2B also does not sound right. I also agree with pdk9 that the Whelen Alpha Q's were the best sounding mechanical tone. It is...

    NO more Arjent S2

    While at the PA Fire Expo, I stopped by the Federal Signal booth. I also asked about updates that were coming down the line and was told it's mostly going to be redesigns and updating of lights. I asked about the possibility of a programmable breakout box, like the Whelen WeCan. Unfortunately...

    ERM Flasher

    Tony, Thank you for the update! I recall you announced you were working on a and had been wondering on the status of this product. Looking forward to it! One question, will this be released before December 2015? If so, I know what I am asking for Christmas!

    2011 Dodge Durango Citadel ***Updated - 06/5/17 ***

    I was wondering who bought some of those CN Signalmasters. Looking forward to seeing them installed! However, why am I not surprised that it was both Triton AND Storm that bought them all? Also I must note that emtanderson51,aka "The Pablo Escobar of elightbars", strikes again.... :D :D :D

    2011 Dodge Durango Citadel ***Updated - 06/5/17 ***

    I don't think you will have to wait long, and here is why: Given how often Tim changes his setup, I think it won't be long until he changes to another bar. And he will need cash for another setup, so he might sell the Valor. See? There is hope!!! :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D

    Some PEMA vehicles

    I was at PEMA's (Pennsylvania Emergency Management Agency) eastern office the other day for training. While there, I was able to capture a few pictures of 2 of the vehicles they have, and the interesting mix of equipment installed. First up is a Ford Explorer equipped with a Mini Justice...

    2011 Dodge Durango Citadel ***Updated - 06/5/17 ***

    I too was surprised at the switch over to Liberty's, but I love how they have them set up with very unique flash patterns. I did see a Solaris Vector on a PSP car ONCE back around 2004 or 2005, but that was it. While I was at PEMA's (Pennsylvania Emergency Management Agency) eastern office the...

    Expedition-Life Lion EMS Supervisor- 911 Rapid Response

    I will admit that the name "Life Lion" sounds cheesy without any context. Based out of  Penn State Milton S. Hershey Medical Center and established in 1986, it was one of the first (if not the first) helicopter critical care transports in Central Pennsylvania. The name "Life Lion" is my opinion...

    Five-O LR11 modification, completed

    Tsquale thank you for doing this! I have had this idea for a while of using both the LR11 and the Five-O light, but lacked either. I always wondered what it would look like, and it looks awesome! I am surprised by how the white light behind the colored lenses looks so incredibly bright! I will...

    Custom Flat-Top Mini MX (2100/RX2700/Ranger Bar Clone) *Back to just a 36" bar*

    Glad to see I am not the only one to think of this idea. I have wanted to take an LR11, get it color changed by wilsonbr90, and then put it in a Five-O dashlight. I think that would look awesome. Along the same lines, I would love to get 2 Whelen PAR46 2 degree spotlights converted to red, and...
