24 Volt siren restoration

[bigmike]

Picked up this siren at the MVCC swap meet in Lodi CA. My plan is to install it on the wrecker.

it was full of dirt and small rocks. Fins were kinda bent up. Did some metal work on the fins, cleaned the unit up and cleaned the internal electrics. Gave it a new coat of paint. Tested it out today...VERY LOUD.

I have a small 12v version that really cranks on 24v!


All the dogs in the neighborhood love it when i fire it up...

That looks real nice. I've got one for my fire truck. Now to fix the truck up.

Mounted the siren today. I love the look...can’t wait to wire it up tomorrow. I’ll make a video when finished.
