Wapakoneta, OH Thunderbolt 1003 Full Hi/Lo Attack - 4/9/22

Got word that Wapakoneta would be testing again as they had some issues on the 1st Saturday. I've wanted to hear this thing ever since Bill first filmed it when it was reverse wired, but could never justify driving all the way down here for a 1st Saturday. Figured it was now or never. Located at the water tower near downtown. And yes, I gave myself a pat on the back for finding a different shot than everyone else.

whenever this thing gets removed (if it even does so) it's gonna be very awkward when someone on crew gets kamikaze'd by a smoothie bottle

[@EastDetroitMusic-Sirens3000A]

What? What’s smoothie bottle?

[@BRISTOLFORCE2009]

I see it

At least it didn't clog the chopper. if it were small enough to, the thing would just be spittin' plastic lmao

[@SirensAndAlarmsOfNorthernIL]

Finally Noie has heard a thunderbolt 1003 in Hi-Lo. Great video! You might wanna check out the Lake Bluff, IL 1003 for it’s annual sound off on July 4th at some point. I bet you’d love it

[@CoolSirens1000T]

They might do alternate wail next year too.

[@SirensAndAlarmsOfNorthernIL]

@@CoolSirens1000T me and Sam (SirenJunkie2) are most likely gonna sound it if we get there early and if we even feel like it. If so we are gonna do either Attack or Hi-Lo. Also, there is no way to do alternate wail on it as it has an older AF timer

sounds like the west thunderbolt 1003 in valley springs when its did undulating hi lo before its flashers got removed

The higher pitched side of the hilo really raises my eyebrows

Ive grown up hearing this all summer for years, didnt think people appreciated tornado sirens to drive on out here but glad ours is worth it!
