For anyone wanting to know what the text at the beginning says: Disclaimer: Not all sirens run on batteries. Most new (post-1980s) Federal Signal, ASC, and Sentry sirens run on batteries, but some still run on AC power. All ATI and Whelen sirens run on battery power. For Federal Signal sirens, you can tell if one is battery powered if there is one large control box and one smaller control box. All Sentry battery-backup and battery powered sirens will have a “-B” in the model code. ASC battery-powered sirens will have two or three large control boxes instead of just one. AC-only sirens only run off of mains power. AC/DC sirens use mains power until there is a mains failure, and then uses battery power for backup. DC-only sirens only run off of batteries.
Interesting. In Germany, we only have grid-powered sirens, the main difference is if they use compressed Air, an interrupted airflow or electricity (like a giant speaker). But Germany doesn't have remote areas like the US.

Thats the reason why they test them.. to avoid situations like this in a real situation. They've heard they malfunctioned so they will start working on them.
I can understand why many people are very enthusiastic about sirens like this. I didn't expect to be as fascinated by them as I am. I like the old internet style of editing, it's nostalgic in a way.
He probably spent a lot of time planning around that day and getting there and setting up his camera and tripod in time for the test, just for the battery to explode in an unimpressive puff of smoke. I can totally understand his reaction.
I don't talk about how much i love tornado sirens enough. Their sound is terrifying. Don't get me wrong, but i hold such admiration for our wailing protectors of the sky.
I’m so glad my TH-cam recommended sent me here. This feels like something I would’ve watched in like 2014 but that’s not a bad thing. It just makes me nostalgic for some reason and it’s such a niche topic I just love it. Keep up the good work
3:36 battery explodes and the siren gently Turns Head just like when you accidently peed in your pants as child "dont mind me mum nothing wrong here" 😂
1:53 I have a midland wr120 that had a battery explode in it abd was leaking, kinda like what happened here with the siren, even with the barrel jack plugged in my wr120 decided to quickly turn off and on and the "pop" noise that you hear when you plug it in just kept on going and woke me up
Yeah, a lot sirens can be ordered with that setup. They call that an "AC/DC" setup. Some systems can even be manually selected to operate from AC, DC, or AC w/ DC backup. But they are more expensive than the sirens that strictly run off battery power.

4:11 this is most likely cause by the individual speaker drivers, they probably had a blown coil / coil rub somehow causing this sound or the circuit board failing to put a even signal through the drivers.
Springfield Illinois used to have several sirens that would pick up communications between vehicles in the field and the dispatcher, some with very colorful language 🤣🤣😵😨😱❗
@@TechHowden I always assumed AC first, battery backup 2nd (if present at all). Older mechanical ones here definitely aren't battery backed (or even battery-only)
@@Knaeckebrotsaege most of them either run from AC and then automatically switch to DC if AC goes out or they run purely on DC from the batteries while they are continuously charged.

couldnt they just hook em up to power lines and then when the power goes out THEN they use the batteries?
