Federal Signal JetSonic question

[empire5150]

I was wondering about the filters in a JetSonic. When the bar was new and if it came with the 1 or 2 strobe option, did it have the fluted filters over the strobe light(s) or were they the normal non fluted ones? I didn't know if the fluted style filter was even in production yet or if they were made later specifically for the JetStrobe series. Thanks!

I am pretty sure they used the standard filters. Only the JetStrobe had the fluted filters - probably to meet SAE.

non fluted on the jetsonic twistlock type. Fluted on the jetstrobe linear head type. Compare a jetstrobe head with fluted filter vs no filter and it's like night and day. The filter really helps to disperse the flash.

Matt, here's the j30 wiring we talked about.

Matt,
The linear strobe tubes found in the JetStrobe series bars also had the Fresnel connect directly to it via clips and did not use the typical Jet Series inserts for filters.. like the type posted above by @Pete L.
