I have a Single-tone. I like it because it sounds "purer." And it's got just a single tone, more power to blow people's windows out!! :twisted: :twisted:
Now, If I could just get it up from my grandparents house...

It was listed on eBay about 3 years ago. The seller lived in Western PA (Greenville if memory serves me right), but he removed it from Ohio, and installed a 2001 in it's place. He junked the blower and RCM (which he said he'd never do again), and was going to install the head on his property as a tornado siren but never got around to it. It sat on the ground for 2 years before I bought it. http://www.angelfire.com/ia3/thunderbol ... ation.html

I don't have any Thunderbolts anymore. See this thread for pics of where my 1000 and 1000T are now.

I'm not completely Thunderbolt part-less though. I still have a horn and a chopper motor with a bad armature and a stator.

Hey all,

I still have my 1000T. I also have the red STH10 that I started my collection with back in 1998 or so. Other noisemakers in my collection include several automotive mechanical sirens(one is a MARS), a number of fire alarm bells, and some electric buzzers. I have contemplated mounting the collection on a sheet of plywood(all except the larger sirens), and building a control panel for my son and I to enjoy them with...still not sure what I will do.

When I see the occasional Thunderbolt still in service up in Minnesota, I smile.

I have a few thunderbolt parts odds and ends floating around the garage.
This includes some screens/brackets, electrical boxes/consoles, manuals, relays, and such. Maybe a blower pulley or 2.
Also included in the parts I have is the radio box from a Federal #ARCH control. This is the one with blue paint and all of the electronics inside.
I would like to sell the spare parts ASAP.

I plan to post in the selling forum soon, but if anyone is shopping and sees this post first, send me a PM!
Those who do not learn from history are doomed to repeat it.

If at first you don't succeed, you're in good company.

Some blame the management and some the employees, and everybody knows it's the industrial disease....
