    Interesting recent acquisition, kind of letdown that it wasn't what I was expecting.. but not too disappointed overall. Beacon Ray 173, on a stanchion mount (sp?) tag had my hopes up as it...

    I came across this little amber beacon light recently while on vacation in upstate New York. I had to pick it up because it was like one of the first lights I ever had. I ordered it in 1981 from...

    I guess we’re showing our age…my first light, too. I remember trying to figure out how to get the suction cup to stick to the windshield frame of my mom’s 61 Olds Starfire (convertible…mine now)...

    Radio Shack sold a similar version which came with red, blue or amber lenses. Cosplaying some kind of generic space police for a convention years ago (IIRC I was 18 or 19), I built a light bar...

    J.C. Whitney in the early 70s. Mine ran on three C-cell batteries. Long since gone, but like @AuroraBorealis said, I found one a few years ago on ebay, NIB. Easy find now.

    I had one on my Stingray in 1969 (pretending to be a firefighter) which probably planted the seed for future light collecting! If I recall correctly, bought mine at Rat Shack with hard earned...

    It’s actually pretty simple. All the 500 series in these TA’s have pig tails on them… trace out ur wiring to figure out which two wires are the triggers for the end modules. Pull those off the TA...

    What vehicle are you trying to do this with? Some vehicles that aren’t listed do work with limited capabilities. As far as the lock/unlock, that is not something that can be done with any vehicle...

    The RockerPak has five switches, not six. My memory is not what it used to be. If you can get by with five switches, you can buy the RockerPak 415 from Code 3 dealers such as the first one that...

    Those domes on those vintage Radio Shack beacons are stamped Stratolite 79. Found a different auction with an older version of what you found, but still has the same dome. https://ebay.us/m/uR0yBw

    These lights have the dome and base of the Dietz Model 7-46, which was Dietz's answer to the earlier Dietz 245 rebadged Federal Vitalite Model 121A Series A1. The internals in this SVP 533 look...

    I am brand-new to the hobby. I planned on making my vintage truck into a pace truck tribute, and just picked up a pretty ratty TwinSonic 12X that looks like it may have been scavenged for parts...
