Forget the paint thinner. Something more strong was smuggled in.

Since I live in Malaysia and having a plan to own a 1003
I wonder how you'd get a Thunderbolt 1003 into Malaysia. Golf clubs here have Lion King sirens that do an okay job, but why something as loud as a 1003? You'd be disturbing the locals unless you put up signs and advertisements many months in advance.

But if you really want one, I wish you the best of luck.

Just (Hopefully) one, last question for now, how many dBs does a single tone & dual tone conduct with blower off?

Uhhh... having sounded a thunderbolt off without the blower, yea when putting it in perspective, it is quieter than a model 2... but not by a lot. It’s still louder than an emergency vehicle siren. (Yes, even a model Q.)

However if you plug the port then the sound drops significantly. I have a video of it. Excuse the banter. The siren wasn’t plugged in properly the first time so I had to kind of help it the second time. The good blast is at 2:25 in the video.

EDIT: also yes I legitimately thought someone was gonna get angry and call the police on us. So that was the last blast for that day. No idea why I said “pulled over” though... XD
