    Michigan State Police Beacons Are Awesome

    I really do love the effectiveness and simplicity of them. There a few F-bombs in the video if you are at work or have little ones.

    Wanted Federal SLR Beacon

    I’ve seen the red ones and thought they were pretty ho-hum. But a neighboring FD picked up a new squad with a pair of ambers on the rear and I thought they were actually pretty effective in that color. Would like to pick up at least one to try out on one of new Frontiers I’m getting. PM me...

    Local LE POTUS escort running with green lights

    Buddy of mine sent these taken during POTUS motorcade leaving KAFB. Towards the end a slick top prowler came flying out running the usual R/B lights, but also had four green-LED heads on dash. Couldn't tell what agency but it had state government plates so it was local and not federal. Thought...

    Federal Signal Pro LED Beacon - Any Reviews?

    Curious if anyone has seen them first hand and how they would rate. Assuming the Whelen L31 is still the standard to beat, how do these compare?

    Often, simple is better.....

    At least in my opinion anyway. Personally I think this bar not only looks better, but is actually more effective than many of the patrol UFO's I see here in the U.S. Police escort for a 6th month old child that swallowed an open safety pin. Policjanci eskortowali (police escort) Krotoszyn to...

    Why did Code 3.......

    .....make their SD (& xl) lightbar with the 120 degree offset inner rotators? They have the normal 180 bulbs typically on the outside rotator, then the 120's with usually only two bulbs (although I have seen some that had 3 bulbs on the 120 rotator. So what was the purpose of this? It seems...

    FREE: Two Blue Whelen Responder Domes

    I have two blue Responder domes, neither are cracked but the 'chrome' rings are trashed.
