ACA Hurricane MKII - Alert - Darien, IL 

@tyler sirens what...?

Really it is

Not anymore sadly

@@ianssirensproductions7418 It's not sad, it's a piece of junk.

@@marylandsirensfirebuff9664 it was bad sounding but not a piece of junk

@@ianssirensproductions7418 yes it was

@@ianssirensproductions7418 If ACA didn't make their blowers cheap when the Hurricanes were in production, this blower would not be an issue. I've heard the blowers leak oil a lot.

Now gone idiot

@@ianssirensproductions7418 That's pretty rude considering I just wrote a comment.

@@ianssirensproductions7418 Also he posted that comment ago, pay attention

@@ianssirensproductions7418 Bruh. He is the one that told everyone on RU-vid about the siren being replaced anyway,

My only contradiction to this is that they have 2001s elsewhere in town. Dariens other Hurricane was replaced with a 130.

@@SirenDude1003 very interesting. You do have a good point. Is it possible that both braniff and Fulton work with this siren? I know it has both a fulton radio and FC 1-way.

@@thespiritstingray9359 I have no clue, maybe it has something to do with DuComm controlling this system. Idk what software they use to operate the systems around here though.

Not anymore lol

I hope not but it’s gone :(

Thats why I’m here ;)

I’m sure Fulton will take it

@@windycitysirens you are gonna buy it?

no, that’s what it is called

Okay

😏

@@windycitysirens 😩👌

@@windycitysirens ima hop the fence

dude i live 7 hours from arkansas lmao

Oh. Ok. Sorry

@@gagethedeerkiller thats alright

It may not be “broken” but, my god, it is very problematic. Its blower has had countless problems and if you listen, halfway through the test the blower starts to have issues again, as it has every other time its been filmed. This probably only works since theyve been working on it so it will keep working until they can afford a replacement.

@@SirenDude1003 Oh ok

I thinks they are going to replace it with a refurbished 1003 or a model 2

@@YoooitsSCARS yeah no its most likely gonna be a 2001

@@SirenDude1003 oh I hate these high pitched white boxes

uh, do you know what youre talking about? hurricanes suck. theyre awesome but they suck and that will always be a fact.

@@SirenDude1003 yes, a 2001-130 is the same decibel rating as a 2001-130, but the thing that makes a Hurricane better is the fact that it’s WAY rarer and better looking.

@@VintageCollections any 2001 is louder than a hurricane. 2001s are low maintenance and reliable, whereas this single hurricane has had to be repaired countless times over the last year alone. I used to follow the same logic you do until i heard a 2001 in person and started doing research on them. Why do you think Federal Signal has sold over 10,000 2001-130s if they aren't good? Hurricanes have always been reported to have countless issues. DeKalb, IL reported a number of problems with theirs. Rolling Meadows, IL reported theirs did not have the volume ACA claimed it did, Elk Grove Village, IL had a few problems with their 4 hurricanes, and Milwaukee, WI and Darien, IL as we all know have had far more than a few issues with theirs as well. Consider the safety of the citizens of Darien instead of siren enthusiasts having a cool, yet garbage, siren to foam over.

@@VintageCollections also yes obviously a 2001-130 is as loud as a 2001-130

@@VintageCollections It needs to be replaced. Theres a difference between cooler and better you know. Hurricanes are cooler, 130s are better. if the power goes out in a storm this hurricane isnt doing shit. all youd hear is dariens other 2001s roar to life. you should reconsider

They don't make p50s no more

P-50’s were discontinued in the 2007

its gonna be

Hope it does tbh, while I love old sirens, this thing has been broken so many times it's just inexcusable when lives are on the line. I do hope however that it goes to a good home and isn't scrapped.

Probably a 2001 becase federalsignal is right in Illinois

Lol

xd

Wish I could but can't :(

@STM1_Sirens

me gladly will

Lol, they make me cringe harder than TikTok videos

i cant tell whether you’re serious or if you’re joking but i sure hope its the latter of the two.

Joking the hurricanes are gine

Gone

Savage dude work on that grammar lmao
