Siren B is my favorite looking siren, but Siren A is the most beautiful sounding. But I like the interesting tone of Siren B, as having a single shutter working is quite interesting.
+CrazyPilot757 Yes, when the shutters fail it does make an interesting sound. Did you see my most recent one? ua-cam.com/video/IaCyouD__qQ/v-deo.html&lc . See 7:40 - the bagshot siren you can hear the sound from the side of the siren where the shutter is not working. Sounds different depending what side you are on.
The run up and the run down, always make me wanna pee myself. Our 2 reactions, could be due to the way the frequencies they've used resonate with our bodies! I live within hearing distance of these sirens, and if I hear them go off at night, I get a sharp, cold pain in my stomach, that makes me wanna be sick! (I'm a higher functioning autistic, and the same sound can make me feel very different, depending on temperature, general weather conditions and whether it's day time or nighttime!)
+Amelia Violet Because I got a great view of this siren the first time (it was really close to the camera) I've not been back there as I filmed it well the first time. So I'm not quite sure. When I've filmed a few remaining sirens I might return to this one and I'll let you know :) Would be interested to see if the shutters are both working again or not (the low tone shutter does not open - it's stuck). One thing I wish I did film is, there was this little dog in the field barking and going mad at the siren! But by the time I got my camera in the right place the dog was pulled away by it's owner. Would have been good to include if I filmed that.
+mrmattandmrchay lol u should of asked the owner to let the dog do it coz every tim e my husky dog hears the sirens going off she'll get pritty mad and bark at them + i think the dampers are frepered last i went to them i saw work men up at them + its even more worse coz i think they managed to get siren G up &sining again notsure
There’s no reference to which siren it is. If you mean on the video, Matt labels them as such just to distinguish the two clips from each other. The pulse sound is due to one shutter being jammed stuck and the other working normally.
Old Sirens in NZ are now condemned to fire station work where they get proper use & maintenance. My nearest one at plimmerton is tested every saturday and 12:00 PM - but only one moment. Our sirens continuously run-up and run-down until switched off. Plimmerton's test is only one pulse.
+John Wagner thunderbolts have small tiny dampers & arent energetic enough to do the hi lo tone like these klxon sirens these klaxons are mechanical & thunderbolts are non mechanical thunderbolts have a spesh organ wat makes air but the mechanical klaxon has to suck air in via the 2 damper ends & chop n force it out
This is like the thunderbolt 1003 if one solenoid fails it creates a very unique hi low sound, except depending on wiring you can configure thunderbolt 1003 to do pulse sound, also you can really mess with the solenoids when winding down to create a funny sounding siren!
You mean like this... ua-cam.com/video/qlR-pfrcd3s/v-deo.htmlsi=kQRdXWVchj-BiP_e&t=82 (cables to both shutters have been cut). Actually, one of them is jammed open.
Its not that the solenoids are jammed open (or closed, for that matter), its that the springs in the solenoid boxes have been worked to quite some extent, so they have snapped.
yes, but since the springs are not there, the solenoid will just move up and down and the shutters won't move. If the shutters are jammed, then there would be an overvolt on the solenoid fuse which would then burn out.
@mrmattandmrchay , just looked in the description, "- in this video there are two of them (probably the best ones, as both shutters were working perfectly)." what the heck
I wonder if I could buy one of the CS8s that have been removed. I'd need an electrician to wire me a 41V 3 phase circuit in, but I'd never have to worry about oversleeping again. Neither will my neighbours... when it wakes me up at 4am for work.
There's an air raid siren near the airport in my home town of Kidlington. It goes off at 0730, 1200 and 1800 every day. It used to freak my wife out when we first moved in together.
Hi, I don't actually have the link. If anyone who does could email it to mattw.youtube@virginmedia.com, then I'll put up the link myself (normally youtube blocks anyone giving a website address, unless "I" add it).
+Edaan Friedman Hi Edaan, If you see this at 3:19... ua-cam.com/video/YtCVISWeemA/v-deo.html then you'll see the map. The sirens from this vid are "E" and "M". If you were to go from one to the other, I guess about 10-15 minutes by car.
Thanks for that info. I've done loads of research and even found an audio recording of a guy doing presentation in local Camberley council offices. Listened to all of it. Seems that 6 will remain - all local to hospital. But nothing decided 100% at the moment, but they need to do something and it's likely to happen. Very interesting! I would love to get hold of one of the decommissioned units, wonder if I would stand a chance of that coming true if I spoke to the right person... :/
+Adam Fletcher You haven't a great deal of time left. Where in the county or the world do you live? Ive been told that the Bracknell station one is working but you can never tell unless visiting them regularly.
mrmattandmrchay it's so sad that the sirens are going as they are a part of the history of droadmoore and should stay in operation for many years to come even if they do stop using them they should leave them where they are instead of scraping them or selling them
These were installed during the 1960 - 80s and Secomak were making the sirens, Secomak stopped making them and Klaxon bought them and started making more until they stopped in 2004
+burns gaming It's a mixed bag as to which ones are still working and which ones don't. I went to Crowthorne Station about a months ago and that didn't work, but I could hear one nearby (looking at the map, it's probably the one near cockadobby).
+DANIELTHESCRUB hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahhaahahhaahahhaah i live in between the 2 sirens in sandhurst & i can hear the TRL/BHM siren
+Edaan Friedman I've already asked about getting one of these, when they are removed after the new hospital is built. Problem is I have to wait a few years! Not sure where I would put it, these sirens are quite large!

Sadly not anymore. All are gone except possibly siren G

No
Well, it matches the sky!
Its been a while Matt. I feel nostalgic when I watch these videos again
I often watch my old videos again as well :)
I like to watch these back now and then because they are filthy good.
Soooooo siren A have shutter stuck open and siren B have shutter stuck close?
One is jammed shut and one is jammed open
Are these klaxons cs8's getting replaced
The definitely won't get replaced, if they go there will be no more sirens.
Apparently Twitter will be there replacement what a joke keep the sirens they are history and everyone loves them
Mr.Someone \Tom/ they actually are there getting replaced with NOTHING!
There is a new siren at the hospital it’s location is unknown but it’s probably next to siren G (the old siren located atbroadmoor hospital)
Imagine the sirens running and both shutters close 💀

Since siren b shutter does not work for the low it makes sound a mixing and those sirens sound like a thunderbolt 1003 doing hi lo but slower.
I like siren b. I just wanna get it and turn it into a 3t22

does this siren #SIREN-B still sing or is it not sining any moor

+Lee Thomas the sirens local to me often malfunction in cold wether & i hear them at 3 am usaly of 7am
can somebody make a version with only siren B?
Wonder if they ever repaired these?
LightingDesk no, as the sirens crap out, Broadmoor removes them, as they believe the asylum is more secure and sirens would be unnecessary.
Only Siren G remains. It works flawlessly though!
Fix them
Edit from 2 years ago: i didnt know this comment existed lol i was dumb back then
Back when I lived in the uk we had some of those sirens go off around my old junior school in Wokingham.
hey can you give me a link to the siren map please I’m a young siren ethused please I hunt fir theaesw

What are broadmoor sirens?
pancake1 They warn of an escaped patient from the UK's highest security psychiatric hospital.
Oh my gosh,scary tone from air raids siren,HI LO, also hearing them at the same time if every air raid siren started at the both same time
The 1940 siren are call air raid siren and one of the sirens can do hilo like 3t22 but no outdoor sound like 3t22
@James Wheeler lol
Siren A = silent hill
I like siren A more than siren B
If I were there, I'd offer to maintain them for free. I maintain my Federal Signal 2t22A tornado siren. (Very little to do.)
Siren B is my favorite siren because its sounding is just perfect

Kennedi Bodally get ya facts right it works now
The blue siren sounds like a single-tone due to the faulty shutter.
Siren A or B?? I like A. Its something about that high pitch constantly blowing along with the low pitch pulsing.
That is a broken solenoid
i pfet to have siren B (PULSE SIGNAL) when its broken it sounds like its cookooing
Wow. That writing tho.
whats the intro music
Thats not a music
2nd one pulsed signal!!!!!! :)
No it did not
At 3:18 it says: "Only one shutter is working! THE 'LOW' TONE SHUTTER IS *JAMMED SHUT!* " So technically kinda
the things wat open/shut are not shutters there dampers & u ccan perches 1 of these buggers?
I actually heard the low tone a bit when it was starting on siren M then it just craps on ye
That's Why Siren M Is My Favorite
one is doing a skrewed up hi-lo and the other is doing Pulse!
yep :)
NO
Siren B looks like a carter that had shutters put on
Siren B new tone: Pulsed Steady
No, single-tone pulse!
In this video, there's a lot more high than low!
If you were talking about pulse tone that means
Your not correct
One sutter jammed siren m i like siren m
Hi lo in America is mostly used for fire calls for volunteer fire departments
Cool, I didn't know that. Interesting

They’re sound kinda not even as far as hi lo go. Like it’s slow pulses then fast.
