Code 3 PSE SD Mini

[Stampeed Valkyrie]

Interesting FB Marketplace find. Excellent overall condition, appears to be never mounted possibly display only.

Clear Late Model SD Minibar, with the XL5K style rotators and Blue filters. I am used to seeing these bars rebranded Galls and Traffic Buster or some other silliness. To find one with PSE tags is rare, at least in my experience. Tags do read Force 4, which is what PSE was naming everything at one point. From XL, to SD, to everything.

Front shots..



Nice shot of the rear showing the overall very clean condition.


And the tag..


The dome does have some handling and scratch marks but not outside of expectations, very close to NOS condition overall.

For the video folks..

Super clean & almost NOS! Definitely a keeper in any collection. Nice snag!

Ooooooo shiny and love the color. (The blue).

I have a full size SD bar that im making as a force 4 sd bar, but gotta get rotators and a dome (the clear one mine had got smashed beyond saving). It just has one red dome for now

I dug around my YT channel and found what I was looking for..

I realized I have too many damn videos..

PSE pretty much settled on calling bars with sealed beam rotating bulbs "Code 3" and those with independently driven reflectors revolving around a single bulb "Force 4". I seem to recall there being a brief crossover period with naming, but for the most part, Code 3 was sealed beams, Force 4 was revolving reflectors.
