I'm not asking how to wire this siren up... I'm just curious whether y'all tend to use a physical switch for the low power input or tap it to an ignition switched wire or leave it on a constant 12v or a combination of both?
Reason I'm asking is I just installed it and hooked it to 12v ignition switched wire, and then thought about it more... with it like this you can't run lights without the ignition being on.... so I'm kind of thinking about leaving it like this and also having a 12v toggle switch so I can optionally turn it on without the ignition being on.... but then that creates its own issues... so I'm just curious as to most of y'all set them up.... particularly how y'all set them up for volunteers (not for vehicles that the siren is used daily as those installs it would probably just be ok to leave the siren powered up all the time...)
