God speed to our brother, Daniel Groover, from the Houston TX Fire Department. FF Groover was a Firefighter/Paramedic from HFD Station 104. He tragically lost his life while fighting a fire earlier today. FF Groover leaves behind a wife and three sons...

I'd like to ask everyone to post "good" examples of product demo and/or install videos. Included with your post, please include why you feel it is a "good" video, and (if applicable) what you would do to make it even better. I'll start off with this video which is readilly available on the...

Whelen has posted on their facebook page that they have a new Liberty II. Any dealers have more info? http://www.whelen.com/pb/Automotive/ProductSheets/Lightbars/Liberty-II.pdf

I was an EMT-B in NJ for several years before joining the Navy, moving to SC, and picking up a hose-line. In those years I worked for multiple agencies, both volunteer and paid. "My" EMS squad is, in my opinion, one of the most up-and-comming EMS providers in the state, and as a full volunteer...

As some/most of you know, I've done two raffles in the past two months to help raise some cash and I'm liking the results thus far. What products would you guys like to see offered in some of the upcoming raffles. PLEASE keep in mind that items like full lightbars would be cost-prohibitive...

Since the last one, http://elightbars.org/forums/f106/%245-t-6s-%2410-cannons-%2410-cobra-800-raffle-54943/ was so successful, I've decided to run another raffle. Drawing will be held 10/31 and the prize will be none other than a BRAND NEW Feniex 4200 controller! Entry rules are as follows...

Staff Sargent Timothy Mcgill reported KIA during Operation Enduring Freedom - Afghanistan. Timothy Mcgill was also reported to be a member of Ramsey FD and Ramsey Rescue in Ramsey NJ. Ramsey National Guardsman, 30, killed by small arms fire in Afghanistan | NJ.com

The triplets (Engine 32, 33, & 34) are all 2004 ALFs (maybe someone more knowledgeable than me can provide further identification). The only difference between the trucks is the number and cartoon on it. All of these photos were taken of Engine 34 except the door cartoons from the other two...

So I'm thinking of doing a raffle or something for some NEW lights as a way to raise some money for my VFD. My question for ELB is what kind of lights would you most like to see raffled off? Keep in mind, things like full bars, interior bars, and other expensive or large items will cost more and...

My department's rescue unit. She's a 2005 Ferrara. If you REALLY want, I can provide a full list of equipment but I think it's fairly standard stuff and I've tried to get fairly detailed photos. The only things missing from the photos are a 2 foot and 3 foot hydraulic ram from the top shelf of...

I've taken it upon myself to develop a comprehensive training program for my department that outlines how to safely and effectively respond to incidents in a POV. I'd like additional input on it as it is obviously still a work in progress and I suck with creating presentations. Right now I'm...

Our previous chief's car was a 2005 CVPI that got wrecked. It was replaced with this 2013 Ford PI Utility. I had no authority on this install and 99% of the equipment was recycled from the CVPI. [Broken External Image]:http://70.38.64.76/h/1/ac5609a7-2032-4667-a33d-799e54701d2e.JPG [Broken...

If the title alone doesn't ring a bell you should probably review your FF1 textbook. 25 years ago today 5 brothers "needlessly" perished while fighting a fire at a local Ford dealership. A bowstring truss roof was subject to fire damage and collapsed instantly killing 3 and the other two were...

To keep thing a bit neater, SOS has compiled a list of vehicles and provided information on what flashers (of theirs) fit these vehicles. Basic electrical theory allows you to use the information provided and figure out which other brand flashers will work. If you have questions, please feel...

Anyone from the general SC area interested in trying to make something work? I'm thinking of something in the general area of Columbia since it's pretty central in the state. Anyone else?

Delayed posting but I've been asleep most of the day. Friday night at around 2330 hrs a driver bypassed a partial road closure and struck FD, EMS, and bystanders at an MVC they were working on. One engineer is still at Medical University of South Carolina. As far as I know there is no...

This thread is designed to give members an idea of equipment that has been stolen. We ask that everyone please keep comments to themselves and only post here if you are reporting missing equipment or have information related to missing equipment. Any public safety equipment is fair game to be...

Hey guys, was hoping someone could help me out with finding a photo of the mounting kit "RMK8H" for the Whelen Justice. Part description is "Replacement 5" Riser Mounting Kit #8H" which I'm assuming replaces the standard height mounting feet and provides the bar some additional height. We're...

I know most people who post an "attention dealers" type thread are hoping that 20 different dealers will try to out-bid eachother to sell them a single TIR3 or something like that. Not me, I want all the information about your company so I can compile a list similar to the one I did for...

Update: New setup starts on page 4. So I now take credit for this install, I've been going through and fixing things as I find them from when a local company did the initial install. The wiring still leave something to be desired but it's a lot better than it was. Vehicle: 2006 Chevy...

I got one that was left on a HT1000 that I picked up but the previous owner said "Oh, that thing, I have no idea what it does." So far my research says that it's some kind of bluetooth accessory and it allegedly connects to just about any bluetooth headset. Can anyone provide aditional...

I get that most websites collect data points about your browsing history to better target you for selective advertising, but this seems specific even by those standards! Background: I was browing the Grainger site yesterday for something completely unrelated to lighting, wires, or anything of...

I know there's been scattered discussion here and there about this for a while, but has anyone heard anything else about it? Because I really want one.

So I searched and while there are a few threads on Ballast Libertys out there none are very recent and none have the information I am looking for. I have already e-mailed Whelen's Customer Support but I'm not sure how much they are going to be able to help me. I've got a fully loaded Ballast...

So I've decided to do my 2011 CV LX up "old school" style. So far I've got FS Firebeam R/C w/ ultraflash Whelen Flatlighter R/R Whelen Cadet R (current 360*) I've got some more planned but haven't had time to install anything yet. The only "New" item being installed will be a Whelen...

My EMS agency (which I'm currently on Military leave from) has ordered and now received our third Frazier Ambulance. Personally I have NO experience with these units as the other two arrived only a few weeks before I left for the Navy. I've already told them I don't like the lighting package and...

Hey guys, I'm looking into buying a traffic vest to keep in my POV as a "just in case" type of deal. My personal one does not need to have any kind of itentifying markings on it (other than my name in sharpie on the tag) but I want to show it to my chief to convince him to replace the one-piece...

OK so I'm offering this up as more of a challenge than anything else. I just purchased a 2011 Ford Crown Victoria LX. It's white, no tints anywhere, front bench seat. My idea is to do as much of an "old school unmarked" theme as possible. Lighting laws in SC allow me to run Red/Clear/Amber and a...

I searched and didn't find anything related to console options for vehicles with a standard transmission. I've got an '06 Silverado 1500 standard cab with 5 on the floor. 60/40 split bench seat. Anyone have any idea if I can get a console for this or would it have to be a custom job?
