Happy New Year!
First video of 2025 and a project I wrapped in 2024.
SN on the tag is 2R78F71P which decodes to 12v permanent mount with a build date of June 1971.
I need to find a replacement brush to properly repair my fix..
Correction as I call the dome an F3 and its supposed to be an F1.
Thanks for watching.

Code3 PSE XL9K Long
Переглядів 8435 місяців тому
one for the road, you might say. Looks like this bar is on its way to a new owner, so I dug it out and cleaned it up again. Solid example of the XL 9000 series sealed beam lightbar. Long come for the longer then standard speaker grille.

Been sitting on this light for awhile as I was trying to source replacement domes for another project. Now that those have been found, figured I would give this some TLC and make a video.

AeroDynic Model 25EAH Project Update #2
Переглядів 7267 місяців тому
It's up and running, fixed and replaced what it needed and it hums along nicely and quietly. Flash pattern is a mistake, but i think I like it. I was aiming for an outside in and goofed the timing now its more of a burst. I can't blame the prior department for pulling the silly alley mirrors on the front. Its pretty clearly impacting the center rotators.

Happy Memorial Day all, in this video I am running through some tests on a pair of PA-20A sirens that I was working on for a friend. Since I recently acquired a CP-25 speaker I figured I would test that out as well.

Clearing out some of the videos, that I should have posted earlier. This one is a find from the Spring Melt 2024 Fire Show. Overall VG condition, needs a little TLC here and there but a good nearly complete bar. Date on the Motor reads 09/1988, it has a few quirks but who doesn't at 36 years old.. :)
Code3 SD 1st Generation overview

Another quick overview video of a recent acquisition, and a quick Turkey Day video all in one. Code 3 PSE SD bar, 1st gen in overall pretty good shape. Previous owner did some changes but great condition for a 44 year old lightbar.

Beautiful bar here folks. Happy Thanksgiving! Thanks to my buddy down in TN showcasing an XL9K he was working on and just wrapped up. A loaded 72" amperage hog of a bar, with stingers and demonstrating the "select a lert" option for rear cutoff.
Code3 PSE Force 4 XL "First Look"
Переглядів 1,2 тис.Рік тому
Interesting recent find, Code 3 PSE Force 4 branded XL5K. Could be a short bar, or Mid length. Outside of the R/B dome combo its pretty loaded including 2 inner Stingers. This one will end up on the back burner a good winter project until I can get around to it.
Code3 PSE Mini SD
Переглядів 2 тис.Рік тому
Documenting a recent acquisition. Code 3 PSE Mini SD with XL5K style rotators. Labeled Force 4, which PSE slapped on just about everything at 1 point. Unusual to find it not rebranded Galls which was also the norm for these bars as Galls would label them "Traffic Busters" or some goofy thing. This was the last reiteration of the SD bar, before its eventual discontinuation.

Why don't you sit right down, and let me spin you a tale of a Federal Q2B that I was praying wouldn't take flight while I gave it a shakedown. Spot the Derp moment at the end, when my power pack died.. ;) Federal Q2B no tag, came from an early 80s ALF, was flush mount but was told by previous owner it came from something else. LOUD, headphone warning.

      If you install POTS for volume control you can always just turn them to the point you get no volume. As for the reset key, easiest way is to replace the lock on the power supply with a simple toggle switch. You can then turn on and off reset mode at will.

    The **NYPD Mini Aero** likely refers to a compact, drone-like aerial vehicle (possibly a small UAV or UAS) utilized by the New York Police Department (NYPD) for surveillance, search and rescue, or other law enforcement purposes. Drones, or unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), have become increasingly important tools in modern policing, especially in a densely populated and urban environment like New York City. ### Potential Uses of NYPD Mini Aero: 1. **Surveillance**: Monitoring large crowds during events, protests, or parades. 2. **Search and Rescue**: Assisting in locating missing persons in hard-to-reach areas. 3. **Traffic Monitoring**: Providing aerial views of traffic congestion or accidents. 4. **Crime Scene Investigation**: Capturing aerial footage of crime scenes for documentation and analysis. 5. **Disaster Response**: Assessing damage after natural or man-made disasters. 6. **Tactical Operations**: Assisting SWAT or other specialized units in real-time surveillance during high-risk operations. ### Features of Police Drones (Like the Mini Aero): - **Compact Size**: Easier to deploy in urban environments. - **High-Resolution Cameras**: For detailed video capture. - **Night Vision and Thermal Cameras**: Useful for nighttime operations or thermal imaging. - **GPS and Autonomous Flight**: Allows for precise navigation and tracking. - **Real-Time Data Streaming**: Feeds live footage to command centers or officers in the field. ### Privacy and Legal Concerns The use of drones by law enforcement agencies, including the NYPD, often raises concerns about privacy and civil liberties. Regulations and protocols are typically in place to ensure drones are used in accordance with legal standards. If you're referring to a specific model or more detailed aspects of the **NYPD Mini Aero**, feel free to clarify, and I can provide more precise information.

    Cool light! I have a light like yours in I bought new at a JC Penny's auto center in 1978 for $28. I have the box and fabric flash shield that came with it. It originally had a blue dome and incandescent bulb. I changed it to a amber dome and halogen bulb. So far, no melting issues.

    • @stampeedvalkyrie

    • @stampeedvalkyrie

      Depends on how bad they are, in short order.. wash and use magic eraser. Inspect. Start with 800 Grit, wetsand. Move upto 1000.. repeat, 1200, 1500, 2000, 2500, 3000. The finer you sand the better the results after a polish. Typically Novus for polish.. start with 3, then 2. Buff. Hit with a good coat of Autowax as the last step.

    @michaeljavert4635 8 місяців тому

    If you have vacuum tubes, you might need to shunt those extra connections in some way. When vacuum tubes were used, Motorola microphones had hangup boxes with a green and black wire protruding from it. When you took the microphone off the hangup box, it would allow the transmit tubes to come on. They would turn off when you hang up the microphone for longevity. Also, typically, A PA Microphone isn't the Motorola one. Those are typically for the two way radios and the PA has a separate microphone. Likely something plastic that had the FS logo or name on it. Also, depending on configurations, different connections could be required for the PA function, which allows the radio to receive over the P.A. so they could hear calls back then, as they didn't have portable radios. There would also typically be separate speakers for the P.A. so that the siren and PA can work independently of the other, if that makes sense.
