- Recorded on January 19, 2021. This is an unboxing video of my Model 2T-220V. Purchased on eBay for $820.00 (around $620.00 for siren, $150.00 for shipping, and $50.00 for taxes). Seller's item listing said this siren works. I tried working on the Model 2T chopper. Rotor will not budge even after I used multiple tools and WD-40. Siren seems it was abandoned for 25-35 years in MA. It was in a Civil Defense Siren System. I will dissemble the Model 2T. I powered the control box. Seems the disconnect switch and motor starter do work. I tried editing the video's audio where the volume isn't loud.

"It worked in 1992 before the firefighters took it off the pole and threw it in the woods behind the fire department."
Btw that part in the controller you couldn't identify looks almost exactly like a telephone relay.
2:35 that’s because it’s a universal motor that can run on AC or DC. The frequency dose not matter. If you took it to the UK that has 50hz, it will work just as well. My model 2 has that too.
cooldomino that’s nice, if I ever get one with that motor I will have to remember that
@@TexasRailfan2008 All model 2's came with universal motors (same as the thunderbolt choppers, excluding the rotator and blower motor obviously).
The sirens on eBay are not as expensive as I thought they would be. I’ve seen a belt-driven Federal Signal 2001-130 going for $3,500.00.
I scored a working model 2 for 350 recently
MARVEL MYSTERY OIL was designed to unseize aircraft carbs, and I've seen it used to unseize entire engines. When in doubt try it out.
That clear box in the control cabinet is most likely a ring relay, I didn't see anything in there to indicate that it was radio controlled.
Nice! also, since this is a 240v one you could actually switch it out with your thunderbolt if you wanted to since the armature on this 2T is 240v.
I made a federal signal 2001 and it works and spins!
And looks like you got it now! Cool! Are you gonna restore it?
My browski is struggling at the start of the video 😢😅😭 he like 2 2 2 2 20- 220v ! I hope you feel better man It sucks making a video when sick!
awesome video
I have a very high chance of getting a Model 2 soon.
Nice now got to fix it up
omg i've always wanted a 2T i hope to get one someday
it's 2T lol
@@pennsy77 oops lemmy change that but idk why i always call sirens like 10v the v10
Will you please one day do a side by side comparison of the model 5 and the model 2?
Nice 2T but its so crusty
Very nice
Shroud looks in good condition but that chopper and stator is crippled! I wonder what happened to the poor thing
very nice. that could a little restoration
Wow!
What's the difference between a model 2-240 and a model 2-120?
Sorry if you get asked this to much.
Voltage, a model 2-240 reaches full pitch at 240V 12 amps (dryer plug power) while a 2-120 reaches full pitch at 120V 24 amps, or the same as regular outlet power, however most outlets like in a bedroom are only 15Amp so using a 2-120 in your room would pop the breaker. I think 2-240s can be run at half speed on 120V without pulling too many amps for a wall outlet due to something with the wiring.
Hey what Coss of that? Siren pls I wanna buy it
I tried to see one on eBay they didn’t have any on eBay
Now Im glad I didn’t bid on this one. The pictures on eBay did not look like this at all. Very tempted to bid on it but I held back.
You bought another model 2?
Darn so you are the one who out bid me
😂
😆
Imagine yall got that
I was watching this one too. Good thing I held back on placing a bid.
5/6 or 4/5 port?
Wow
Hey could you send a link where to buy sirens
Huh but i thought u already have the model 2
2T. He has another 2T and a 2. I wonder if this'll be a parts unit.
I heard siren says stop recording lol
Ooo

The crusty 2t. Saw this one on Ebay.

@@trainsandsirensofilinmiwi2080 He already has it. He bought it off ebay
@@marylandsirensfirebuff9664 oh ok. i wish i had one of those. but guess what i have a very very secret idea for me
@@trainsandsirensofilinmiwi2080 ok
@@marylandsirensfirebuff9664 it is going to be a. thunderbolt resoratiooooooooooooooooooooooooooooon.
Since when you can buy a f**king tornado siren?!?
They still make the single tone version right?
yes
Yes. The dual-tone version stopped production in the 80s.
Don't buy sirens off ebay. There's a lot of lemons on there
Ignore this comment. All but one siren in my possession came from eBay, and they’re all excellent. Sure some are better than others (I’m looking at you, 1923 A), but I wouldn’t call any a lemon. There’s a lot of mystery and rarity out there!
@@MidwestSirenProductions Yeah it depends on the seller
I got a Sireno Model D from eBay, and note it’s not a rebranded one, and it works just fine
Nice! Where did you get this?
eBay
Wow! For how much? (Do I even wanna know?)
