im looking forword to seeing one of these bars in person its a very powerful unit for its pint sized hight looks like a very great product im also glad whelen has a wecan adapter to use on traditional systems
Have you don't done any videos of these bars on a dodge charger? Were putting them on two silver chargers. We added a park mode to it so their's a slow left right flashing when it's in park.
The San Antonio Police Department uses this on their new 2015+ Ford Explorers. I know they use it because my local installer (SWPS) made a UA-cam video of an SAPD vehicle. They almost look purple when they flash, especially at night because the red and blue is all mixed. They did the same with the old Edge strobe bars they had.
@tvercetti1 our new sheriffs cars in johnson county IL are going red blue for the front and red on the drivers side all amber in the middle and blue on the passenger side for our SUVs, using the federal signal legend bars....really dont care for the knight rider patterns that goes inner outter they chose....makes it kinda pointless to have all red on one side and all blue on the other when there flashing at the same time. :/ but for night time I do like that the blue and red is mixed....makes it less bright and the red cant glare as much.
LOL I said the same thing. Coming from a Code3 Excalibur with LEDs in 2008 to this Legacy in 2017 is like "holy shit no wonder they give us a 'dimmer' switch for night patrol.
@sirennet any chance of you doing a video on the federal signal AeroDynic lightbar? There was one in the background of the this video....around the 6:30 mark. Also have you ever heard of the AeroDynic Solaris Two-Tier LED Lightbar? Looks like the same bar but with leds.
is there a more simplified version of the Legacy available, where you just have the single red, blue and amber lights (non-duo) and just the single alley lights (as opposed to the whole corner)?
You can get alley LEDs in the corners, but if you get a we can bar you can set it up to where take down is only alley. Also yes it comes in a single color version. Can’t believe no one replied to you for 5 years.
With the whole bar being DUO modules, it can be programmed for a full Blue only mode and then a half red, half blue. It can even be set to a full Red only.

Dear Sirennet, I would like to ask you, if this WeCan lightbar is controlled direct with this switch controller, which you hold in hands in video, or it is controlled via WeCan box. The cables from lightbar goes to WeCan controlbox and wecan controlbox is operated with switchbox and siren power center? thx for answer.
The switch controller is used to tell the WeCan box what you want it to do. Then the WeCan box controls the all of the various parts of the lightbar. The WeCan box can also be controlled by some of Whelen high-end siren and light controllers.
Dilly Dilly the colour is the only thing regulated. I can’t imagine a state stating in state code, that only a Federal Signal product is permitted. As long as it is whatever colour is permitted by state statute, you are alright. The magic of lightbars such as these, is that you can isolate colour or functionality down to a perfectly legal setting, then turn it up elsewhere. Such as, if you are only permitted to run red, no amber or white, you can disable takedowns, alleys, and traffic advisor. Then have a separa mode where those are enabled. We have people crossing borders here, where in one state, we must have blue, in another, you must have green or red. Obviously a red and blue dual colour lightbar is a sticky wicket, so you have one switch set for just red, the other for just blue, and they cannot possibly flash both simultaneously.
Usually IL just requires that whatever light you use is that its blue or blue/white front blue/amber rear (down state) up state i think you have to have all red because Chicago pd runs blues. Other then that you can use whatever you choose, dash lights visers bars or rooftop bars.
+Public Safety Lights Australia You sure can. You'll use the WCCP Module and the trigger wires it offers for connecting into a controller or switches of your own choosing.
+Public Safety Lights Australia It can be programmed to Steady-burn all of the White Diodes within the Modules. That will allow for 360 degree's of scene light.
When it comes to colors of lights our emergency personal, construction and tow trucks use I personally would like to have a federal law that says all law enforcement have to run either all blue lights or blue/white in the front blue/amber in the rear, then fire departments run red/blue (because the fire trucks have so many lights on them) then ambulances be required to run red/green and tow trucks and construction use amber/white or amber/green(like Alabama does).....that way people can tell what's in front of them and it would be safer passing them in the highways. ....but states like Missouri, Oklahoma and texas now running red/blue or blue/amber to the rear of tow trucks and road construction.....you cant tell if its a cop EMT or some road worker:/
@@Geister7 true but the colors identify what they are plus red on a cop car is incredibly blinding at night were blue isn't, on a fire truck red isn't half as blinding(dont ask me why but it is)...doesn't matter how fast I'm going if I can't see them and hit them.
Whelen are getting worse with designing lightbars, what possibility will anyone have for a red/blue white & amber Lightbar I understand amber TA but I'm not sending that sorta cash for a bloody ugly looking Lightbar !!
skunko144 the idea is for multiple uses. Red and blue, warning colours. You could have them be the opposing dual colour, having all being able to flash both red and blue. Many departments value adding white for its punch for traffic clearing, or for night patrol, it can do that too. Amber being generally used for traffic control, that’s why it’s on the rear. The setup as was chosen here is the most common for dual coloured lightbars, if none of this was needed, it comes in single coloured modules. It can direct traffic with whatever colour the modules happen to be, Ohio Highway Patrol has their traffic advisors in blue, since that’s all they have.
Red/blue is usually for emergency responders rather it be law enforcement fire or EMTs they usually add the white for both better visibility and because its american colors (which is why texas law enforcement is now required to have red white and blue and in that order) and amber because it cuts threw for and rain.....southern states usually go blue/white front blue/amber rear so theres somethin to cut threw the sun (sense they dont use that glaring red) and northern states like NY &NJ use all red with amber in the rear so theres not so much red glaring at you at night. Same with NM personally id like to have a fed law that says all law enforcement have to run either all blue lights or blue/white front blue/amber rear then fire departments run red/blue (because the fire trucks have so many lights on them) then ambulances be required to run red/green .....that way people cant tell whats in front of them and it would be safer passing them in the highways. ....but states like Missouri, Oklahoma and texas now run red/blue or blue/amber to the rear of tow trucks and road construction....they say it makes people move over faster....i think it makes it to confusing for people on the roads, they cant tell if its a cop, emt or fire fighter or if its a construction worker. :/

@Valley 428... For information relating to legalities, we recommend that you contact your State's DOT or State Patrol Office.
SIRENNET I'm using this light bar plus.google.com/106881438235728461075/posts/KpuXjssyTBf and it's legal on my country

personally for the cost, i can buy two liberties.

Yeah I really love SAPD’s LED freedoms that they still have on a couple of their units

We have one of these on our new brush truck, first time in my life where I said "Holy crap, that's almost too bright" lol
What I said when I saw it on our new Tahoe!

That is one nice light bar 0.o

Also they make this bar in solo form.
Just get a Justice lol
Who drives that car??? Other than that, so buying this light bar
It costs about $2000 btw
I have a question could there be a function for the light bar to become "red/blue" and then a full "blue" lightbar or could there be a way to do so
With the whole bar being DUO modules, it can be programmed for a full Blue only mode and then a half red, half blue. It can even be set to a full Red only.
Ok thanks
i wanna know if is it posable to make crystal clear white snowflakes led headlights but with out the constein flashing???

can you built this bar without takedown & just have duo leds in place of the front white takedown
+Public Safety Lights Australia The Legacy Light-bars can be configured with Warning Modes in place of the Take-downs.
Awesome

What can't this lightbar do?
Como puedo comunicarme para más información?
Please email our friendly & helpful Sales Team: info@sirennet.com. Thanks for watching. Looking forward to hearing from you.
can you use your own controller or just basic switches to control this bar ?
+Public Safety Lights Australia You sure can. You'll use the WCCP Module and the trigger wires it offers for connecting into a controller or switches of your own choosing.
+SIRENNET can this be setup say amber & white then setup a 360° white
+Public Safety Lights Australia It can be programmed to Steady-burn all of the White Diodes within the Modules. That will allow for 360 degree's of scene light.
Not a nice bar for7000 $

I mean does it matter? You should be slowing down and giving them space regardless
