- This is a test of my recently bought 1949 Federal Electric Company/Enterprise Model 2. This siren was installed in Vincent, Iowa and it was used as a tornado siren until the early 2010s. It was then replaced by a Whelen WPS 2903. I bought it off of Facebook marketplace for $750! It came with the housing and a control box which were both in great condition. This siren runs off of 110v which is perfect for my setup. I plan on using it as a tornado/hurricane evacuation siren in my hometown in Florida. I would like to get the brushes replaced and possibly the bearings but I'm not sure how to safely work on it yet. Any suggestions in the comments would be appreciated!

Bro literally took a tornado siren and😂😂 extension cord to the ocean😂😂
thats so cool! my city has a couple of these, i might trust and get my hands on one somehow as they arent used anymore and are just rotting away
I know! So many people neglect them. They pop up on ebay and facebook marketplace every now and then. They can ship easy too!
Nice! Doesn't sound too bad!
The Model 2 chopper motor is also used in alll of the THUNDERBOLT SIREN models so their exchangeable
Just another reason to love these things!
