    Trying to find info on my 4 head dashmiser from factory

    Weren't the DM's plastic housings, as compared to the metal ones like the TA836's, since they were meant to be mounted inside?

    Whelen Core VS Cantrol

    Not trying to downsell Cantrol, as I have one, but Core will give you current and future support, as well as V2V sync and DVI. I went Cantrol because while I am persnickety about wanting the lighting patterns and combos I want when I want them, I don't use my lights often enough to justify...

    Does anyone have the pinout for the Whelen CC5K1 Canport cable?

    @NoLimitSquads - the guy who needs a Core cable found the CC5K1 NIW, so I'll be swapping with him, but I appreciate the offer. :) I had the pinout for the Whelen side, was looking for the OBD side. When mine arrives I'll grab my meter and work up a chart in case anyone needs one in the future.

    Does anyone have the pinout for the Whelen CC5K1 Canport cable?

    So, after a long wait ($$) I finally got the small parts to accompany the OBD Interface for my Cantrol. Using a hodgepodge of spacers, standoffs and a combination of adapted IC standoffs I got the board installed and recognized. (If it's ugly but it works and it's hidden, who cares). So I...

    What's the worst lightbar made by a well-known company? (FedSig, Code 3, Whelen)

    From a KISS user standpoint based on my experience? Federal Smart Vector. My FD bought an engine with one installed on the last C8000 series Ford produced by Peirce in 1991. You can see it on the cab in this photo: Guys would get in and, used to Twinsonics, Aerodynics or other traditional...

    Canopy/bed topper side windows mounting tips?

    For my F150 topper I had originally fabricated brackets for 500 series duo heads using 2" Al L channel and used VHB tape to secure it to the glass. I got tired of warning planes when my windows were open so I drilled holes and piggybacked into the screws for the window frames. This is the early...

    WatchGuard Evidence Library Express

    It seems /\/\ is displaying the same care and concern they have for their no longer supported radio systems - yes, we'll prosecute off market sellers of software we no longer offer or support, but no, we won't give or sell you the same software, because we no longer support it. </rant>

    Has anyone built their own switch boxes?

    I had a goal of wiring up a Unitrol 330 series switch box as a low voltage control rig in combination with my Cantrol. A Uni 330 was my first light Control in the first POV install I was ever proud of. I've got most of the parts, but the prices on the Universal Control Modules tripled since I...

    Whelen cannon plug…?

    I'm pretty sure Whelen didn't have a proprietary plug fabricated, and instead used something made by someone else with their logo embossed on the housing. Check Mouser, DigiKey and the other online sources and you'll likely find it there.

    FastTrax integrated Traffic Advisor?!

    I recall seeing the FastTrax on this site, and thinking it would be cool to install on my F150. I quickly realized it never achieved widespread use (I never saw one in the wild) and that updating it 20+ years might be a little more challenging than I wanted to start.

    For Sale Whelen Delta lightbar parts

    I'm curious about what functions it has, if it's programmable or functions like a WeCan system. Never seen one before, and all the documentation for the Delta I've found makes it appear to be a conventional system.
