Hello all, I am looking towards getting some grants to go to my volunteer department. One of the things I would like to invest in is a training tower in which we could do live fire, search, etc. I've seen some departments building their training facilities using shipping containers, and I'm...

Hello all, Having problems finding information or reviews on the Whelen Spectir8, if I missed a thread on here, please post a couple links and lock this thread. Anywho, my woman got herself a new car and is being picky about what light goes in her shiny brand new baby. Have caught a couple...

Looking to upgrade my Feniex Cobra 2x to a Whelen Dual Avenger. Wanting a Blue/Blue, but willing to consider Blue/White depending on the price. Unit must be complete with windshield suction cup bracket(and cups), flashback shield(with or without reflector stickers, those don't matter), and...

In search of a windshield mount(suction cup bracket) for a recently acquired Whelen single Talon. Have done a ton of searches and haven't had luck. If anyone has one or could direct me in the right direction, PLEASE leave a response or pm me. Any help is appreciated, Jeremy

ISO a couple Minitor 5 amplification charging bases. Trying to start a project with getting an alert/klaxon system put into my dept. since we're getting a bunk room. Going to make an attempt on the one using an amp base, plus wanting one for myself and can't seem to find them anywhere. I/We...

Ok... Here's yet another post about "how your dept is alerted", however, this is specifically about dept's using the town's alert siren.(tornado siren, general warning siren) I have seen a couple people post on the topics of how your dept. is alerted respond that they still use this system...

I'm fed up with wires throughout my car, so I'm about to really focus on hardwiring my lights in my new Impala. I'm wanting to learn how to do this so I can start a side business for myself. So.. Educate me folks. First up, what I got.  I have a 2014 Chevy Impala LT Limited. Inside I have an...

As I said in another post, I finally got myself a new car. After some tinkering, I finally have my lights installed. Front: -AWL Venom v1 in B/W -Whelen Single Talon in B Rear: -Feniex Cobra 2x in B/B Plan on hardwiring these at some point. But that is yet to come...

Been a while since I started a thread, so I figured I'd start another because I rather ask for help than possibly mess something up. I finally got a new car. Bought myself a new 2014 Chevy Impala LT Limited. Biiiiiiig upgrade. But with a new vehicle means I need to take out lights, and put...

I recently purchased a Mini Phantom Max for rear warning. It's a great little light for what I need to for and much more trustworthy than the light I did have. However, one of the suction cups wont keep the light up. (don't you hate that problem? :dielaugh: ) Any advice on what may be the best...

So, my fire dept. has some extra money, and it's a couple years before we finish paying off our tanker and can get a new engine. I'm contemplating talking to our Chief about outfitting our current engine with LEDs, then we could transfer the LEDs off her to the new engine, or our tanker...

Ok, so I'm trying to think of new things to get for guys on the department that show we are on the dept. We just got new Blauer emergency response jackets(crosstech fabric... they are VERY nice. Very warm and they shine quite a bit when there's a tiny bit of light in an area) and we have some...

Here's another new(I believe) FRIENDLY topic I have been thinking about here recently; What's everyone's opinion on clear lenses and colored lenses for LED lights? This means light bars, dash lights, grill lights, intersection lights, all LED lighting for vehicles. Here's my take: Recently...

This is my Cavalier I have referred to quite a few times on the site. Don't have much in it yet, but don't plan on putting much in it anyways. Currently "installed"(plan to hardline these in a week or so): Front: AWL Venom in b/w Rear: STL Dual Pro in b/w( :o yes white to the rear) To...

Just bored and feel like striking up a friendly new conversation. As I look through this site, light suppliers, and other firefighters I see throughout the area, I have noticed the very little use of white to the front. Whats up with this? I myself prefer white in all forward lighting and...

So I've applied to multiple fire depts in hopes to begin a hiring process over the past (almost) 2 years in hopes to get everything going. IFD fell through because I had inside access to what they were looking for in their hiring process they just did. I should have done the testing for...

Alright, I finally have a steady income again, and while it isn't much, it's still something. I'm saving money to be able to outfit my POV(a Cavalier. Yes, I drive a Cavalier, sadly. Not complaining much, it was a free vehicle.) with some better lighting than I have, which isn't much. I'm...
