If the thunderbolt was run for a significant amount of time with both solenoids closed, with the blower running, could that possibly cause damage to the blower, chopper, or solenoids themselves?
As long as the blower relief valve was working as it should the air from the blower blocked by the solenoids would be released by the valve. Those old sirens weren't intended to be run for longer than 3-5 minutes at a time.
I appreciate the response. I didn't know the blower had a relief valve, though I should've expected it. It makes so much more sense now that pulse would be a useable signal in these sirens.

They run through the hi-lo flasher in the RCM 3. I didn't have an RCM 3 so I build one. I have a video up showing the controls.
