home made solaris/responder

[Station 3]

I was bored and had spare parts laying around and built this. It's not perfect or very pretty but it's bright as hell with 8 Solaris heads in it and a fed sig Inteliflasher. The shell is a Whelen Responder shell I had and still uses the factory cigarette plug and wiring. I might use this to respond or might just donate it to our dept for a duce in a half military truck we have that needs lights.

Sweet! Pretty sure there is room for a cut down TCL though! Haha

Looks good...just gotta get 2 more inboard Solaris heads for the upper level & something to fill the sides (ie alleys or SNM surface stars to squeeze in there)

a rotator from a cadet or pancake might fit in that empty space well.

I haven't had a chance do use Solaris leds yet little more in money wise.

I use a lot of cudas for my projects. like this one from a Whelen LP. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UaP8VRzp9lA  and this from a star bar 9200 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ma2JprLrkbE

Did you burn your truck down yet?

No I had someone else install the lights not you remember.

The bar is SOLD by the way $100 to a local Volly FIrefighter

I think that's cheap since it has one ENTIRE Federal Signal ILS bar inside that little whelen responder shell. This thing throws crazy amount of light.

As long as the stuff in there is homemade and none of that store bought crap.

I had a store-bought one the other day, and I thought the tortillas in the package had been replaced with cardboard discs.
