As a kid, the close by SD-10 used to scare me when it was tested. Then, I did a report in high school on J. N. Hedberg, who made sirens here in San Jose. Some years later, about 1999, I found the siren board.
Quick thing about that Model 5 that fell over (in case you haven’t heard already) that siren is actually being (cosmetically) restored and will be put back up in its original spot (without the pole ofc) as a display.
I'm really glad to hear that, I'm not surprised that it will be pretty much gutted, I know for sure the rotor and stator probably didn't survive that fall.
Yeah same for me, I think I'll be doing a video after I get the new series out that goes over all that we know about the L.A. system. Including all the oddities.
Great video man. Glad to see more people are interested in viewing and preserving these sirens here in Los Angeles. Also great to see a Fedelcode and 500 up close. Also, FYI, most of the sirens still have the phone lines connected. Just no power.
@@connorcruz6249 I have a question about the sirens in Los Angeles imagine if they were still active especially the SD 10s 500s model 5Ts that would scare the living hell out of you
I’ve watched this before and I’m rewatching the video but as you guys talked about how you got into siren lemme say how I did. It’s short but at my elementary school there was a 2001 outside and I’ve always thought how cool it sounded when they tested but not until like 2 to 3 years ago I started to get more into them then I ever have been but that’s my story on how I got into them
44:01 mine started in 2018 when I was watching a popular fan enthusiast by the name of Dan neuman and the sirens in his area tested, thought it sounded nice and I looked up about them and became an enthusiast that same hour, and that making the first siren test video I watched was of the p50 next to the Hudson water tower in Hudson Wisconsin
32:03 How can turning on a siren make the lights go out? It's just like when I turn on my air conditioner in the summer. Is it an electricity overload?
I couldn't see any back in October 2022 when I went on vacation because I was at Disney Land which is quite far from any LA siren :/ I've flown over the sirens though lol
Aw hell naw you're doing siren vlogs now :O Was neat of you to show Edaan's mini siren stuff too. You'll never guess who printed that Cylclone stator at 35:00 😁
No shot, thats yours!? Big RIP my guy😂 . And yeee I just wanted to try somethin a little different than what most siren vlogs consist of, where they don't offer much more information than what you could get from Google street view 😶
Love this video! Even though I'm late to comment lol. I got earblasted by a vortex during a tornado warning when I was 6 and that's what kickstarted my interest.
@@Gvacshaha yes. The Whelens aren’t the loudest but they’re still unpleasant to get blasted with. Also, in many cases they’re louder than you would think.
Nah, Edaan's heath was in someone else's collection before he got a hold of it, and I'm not certain where it originally came from but I know for a fact that it's not the pleasanton one.
My city 200 miles north of LA has the same brand of air raid sirens. They were installed in the 1950s during the Cold War and tested monthly. Last time they were tested was in the 1960s. These sirens are still used today in the Midwest as tornado sirens. I think the copper thieves have stripped the wiring out of ours. I think you are an "Aspie", Asperger's Syndrome.
I was thinking the same, one of the biggest downsides of them not being tested for such a long time is that they would need some considerable work to get them operable again now
It angers me that LA just abandoned their system and just replace it with the EAS, what if you're phone is dead and you don't see a huge tornado behind you?

@@connorcruz6249 Nope, they are actually keeping the internals too! It surprisingly didnt take much damage internally.
@@MasenMonster thats awesome! I thought for sure it was going straight to the scrap heap
LA seems to be the only siren system that still interests me
Yeah same for me, I think I'll be doing a video after I get the new series out that goes over all that we know about the L.A. system. Including all the oddities.
@theray2009 Fr tho. It's a lot more interesting than I thought, now that you talked about it on that call
@@kansasclocksandsirens ye
What about the 3 inactive EOWS-408s?
@@SouthernILSirens meh
So that mini 3t22 in the hi low sounds like an kalxton cs8 siren at 33:37

I found that to be interesting as well, also feel free to use any clips out of this that you find useful if you want to use some in your videos!

Connor Cruz, you are truly an amazing person just climbing up sirens and making 3D Printed Sirens you are really awesome.
Haha thank you!
The local hellcat at 3:00 am 37:21
I got into sirens about 8 years ago when i watched a video of the Chrystal, MN 3T22 doing alert and attack uploaded by JP?????? , awsome video!
Haha that's sick! I love getting to hear about how people found the hobby!

You should go climb one of the debated sirens. The cut-down ones. Would be nice to actually have some clearance as to what they are.
I already have, I did it quite awhile ago now, they're federal electric Mach 7's and are 9/12 port. I know it's pretty weird
6:50 nice SD-10! I’m looking for a roof shroud for mine, any idea where I can get one?
That red and black siren at 30:00 is made by Heath Engineering Laboratories, Inc.
32:03 How can turning on a siren make the lights go out? It's just like when I turn on my air conditioner in the summer. Is it an electricity overload?
Cool feldecode model 5? I am getting one as it was decommissioned
Could you make a video Rebuilding it
35:15. 508 chopper? Or some sort of asc siren?
This is soooo coool!
Welcome back to LA
YOOOOO, sorry i didnt have much time to chill with everyone when i came back.
@@connorcruz6249 No worries! Hope the trip went well!
I couldn't see any back in October 2022 when I went on vacation because I was at Disney Land which is quite far from any LA siren :/ I've flown over the sirens though lol

Damn I thought edaan was making a cyclone, I wish he would make one so I can buy it, cyclones are my favorite siren
Nice a city near me has lots I might make a video like this
I only found one of the sirens near woodman drive
They actually did the full chime
Love this video! Even though I'm late to comment lol. I got earblasted by a vortex during a tornado warning when I was 6 and that's what kickstarted my interest.
Haha that's a hilarious origin story! 😂😂
@@connorcruz6249 Yeah LOL, Whelens are a lot louder than you would think in some cases.
@@Gvacshaha yes. The Whelens aren’t the loudest but they’re still unpleasant to get blasted with. Also, in many cases they’re louder than you would think.
@@emrilbennett8704 Yep, i should be hearing a vortex that's mounted on the ground this summer, along with a thunderbolt 1003. Pretty excited for it!
@@Gvacs yay! Have fun and be safe. Don’t forget protection lol.
I saw a siren in Long Beach in Los Angeles
WAIT, EDAAN HAS A HEATH, HE NEVER TOLD US THAT
Will that model 20 in the background also be coming to etsy?
38:58 best review😂
My tornado siren interest has been on and off and came back so like semi interest
30:16 is this the heath from Pleasanton California? Great video!
Nah, Edaan's heath was in someone else's collection before he got a hold of it, and I'm not certain where it originally came from but I know for a fact that it's not the pleasanton one.
@@connorcruz6249 Ah okay, still cool he has one!
37:22 It sounded like a FS Q2B model
just found your channel, good stuff.
Welcome aboard! If you're into sirens engineering or listening to some guy talk to himself on camera I'm sure you'll enjoy my channel
46:06 Does that H.O.R Work?
Nah it's just a stationary model, It doesn't have any rotors in it either if I remember
@@connorcruz6249 Alright, thanks for the Information!
29:59 What siren is that? It's a very interesting design
That's a heath siren.
I want a mini siren of allertor
And look inside of the Federalcode model 7 and 500shtt

Edan just like me lol
I'm going to gunter tx to see a working thunderbolt 1000
I got in to sirens after a tornado came to frisco in 2014...
Sirens in los angles ca wow e have sirens in florida😊
Nah really?
Awesome video!
YOO is that a model 2 in your profile?!!
@@connorcruz6249 Yup!
@connorcruz6249 can you please ask Eddien's mini sirens if he can make me a castle casting siren please thanks
On the Control box
I wish 3T22S were air raid sirens.
dope
Nice video! and I think that 5T/7T be all seized up by now judging by how rusted it looks on the chopper and stator...
I was thinking the same, one of the biggest downsides of them not being tested for such a long time is that they would need some considerable work to get them operable again now
33:11 siren head 😨
Eu quero uma sirene
It angers me that LA just abandoned their system and just replace it with the EAS, what if you're phone is dead and you don't see a huge tornado behind you?
LA doesn't get tornados
@@kansasclocksandsirens Ik, im saying that replacing a beautiful siren system with a POC alert system is a stupid move
14:23🧍🏻🤔🔊
I dare ya to ask LA for a 500SHTT
51:16. 56:56
Hi
What's up ! Welcome back!
You look very tired. Nice Video Though
Believe dude I was exhausted through most of the whole thing as I had to cram a lot into the limited time I was back home.
😞
