Other Notes:
Happy belated Ohio SWA! For this years SWA, I headed down to Carroll County for this T-121 in the northern part of the county. None of the weather sirens in the county had ever been filmed so I was curious what they did. Upon arrival one of the firefighters told me it does a full three minute alert, followed by a one minute pause, and then another minute of alert. Right at 9:50, EAS tones drop and shortly after we head inside and push the button. It's just a little box with three buttons; tornado, fire, and cancel. The siren works as normal for the first two-ish minutes, and then it randomly kicked into attack for a few cycles. I didn't think much of it. The siren winds down and we wait about a minute, and we push the button and nothing happens. We tried a few more times and nothing was happening, so we went into the engine bay and opened up the main control panel and tried sounding it that way. Again, to no avail. We were both stumped as it had worked totally fine just minutes ago, but now it isn't working? Anyways, a successful SWA nonetheless! Enjoy!

It sounded like it was sorta dying all the way through the cycle

[@sirensofneohio3979]

It was. We found out it was running off batteries and it drained them

How do you make it so when you rev it goes off repeatedly
