I discovered this siren myself a couple of months ago, and the test time was said to be between 11:00 and 11:30AM. However, when we went to record the siren, it did not sound. This was due to the emergency booklet being outdated, it even had the old company name still on it (The site changed ownership over a year ago). We waited 30 minutes for nothing. The site tests its siren on the 1st of eve...

Missed it by THAT much | Mez H1 B2 Siren
มุมมอง 501หลายเดือนก่อน
So. We overloaded the switch which we were using to turn the siren on and off. Well, when I say 'overloaded' I mean we triggered the overload failsafe feature which automatically breaks the circuit, which protects the motor being overloaded and therefore, damaged. However, we had set the overload parameter too low, and therefore it cut off the power to the siren despite the fact the motor is de...

Air Raid Siren and Bells | Short Alert | Trento, Italy
มุมมอง 2123 หลายเดือนก่อน
Watch to the end, believe me you will NOT regret it.* We originally headed up to Rovereto to hear the Ercole Marelli M6, but unfortunately we learnt that it had broken. Fortunately, the siren will be fixed, as its noon sounding has reached an almost traditional stature. Turns out, several towns in North Italy actually sound sirens daily at noon in commemoration of the World Wars, and we discove...
Klaxon FP10 Ambience | Short Alert | Spirit Energy Terminal, Barrow
มุมมอง 3384 หลายเดือนก่อน
We went down to Barrow to record the North Morcambe Terminal, near Rampside. The South Morcambe Terminal was demolished in 2019, and was once the home of three white-painted Federal Signal XT22 sirens. According to the person I spoke to on the phone, it is unlikely that they were scrapped. Rather, it is more probable that they were either put in storage or sent to another site. This is yet to b...

    Almost a pointlessly short test- how are the public supposed to familiarise themselves with the attack signal if they barely test for half a cycle!

    • @CivilDefenceFox
      @CivilDefenceFox 4 วันที่ผ่านมา

      To be honest, I think the question is more "How can the public familiarise themselves with the attack signal if they can barely hear it" XD Anyway, they shouldn't need to familiarise themselves with the signal too much, the main reason for the test is likely just to ensure the thing still works. Pretty much anyone can recognise an attack signal upon hearing one, however whether they can hear it at all or know what to do is another question entirely!

      Gotta say, I prefer mechanical sirens too. I was hoping that they might have used an FP10 or something similar, but this is the first time I've heard an ES so I didn't mind.

    The half life 2 metrocop mask looks good, it's also interesting to see a size comparison of a S04 against a Strident 1500. S04's I see them as the UK's version of the Federal Model 2 giving how powerful the little beasts are and I probably sound silly saying that but it is nice to see another S04 in good hands. Btw as for the colour of the rotor it could be a very old S04 maybe? Perhaps the impellers were painted grey originally? Anyway enough of my rambling
