Smith & Wesson “starblaster”

I’ve got a lightbar I have little info on but maybe y’all can shed alittle light on what it exactly is. It’s a S&W bar but instead of rotators it has 2 factory strobe beacons it has TD’s, rear flashers, and alley lights. I talked to a guy about 2 years ago when I acquired it and he said they were a factory test run and roughly 200-300 were made. It’s got it’s own unique tag labeled “starblaster” and it’s serial number 40

It’s the top bar. The bottom one is a standard S&W with rotators.

Sangamon county sherrif in IL used the S&W bars in the 80s as well. The running joke was they were so old you had to use kerosene to power them. Very effective for the time. Never saw one in strobe. Good find.
