Thank you for what you do. When I was severely injured, on the ground and alone...the sweetest sound in the world was a siren from a firefighter. I have always appreciated first responders, but now even more so. God speed, sir.
Looks great. I do have one singular recommendation. Maybe add a bit more cornering lighting, and maybe another light or two on the side, for more of a 360 lighting effect. Good for clearing intersections, turning, etc. Just a recommendation. Great looking truck overall though.
At my dept. We can have lights [Red & White]. Only our first responders can have sirens. I have a Cadillac Escalade with visor lights and a traffic advisor/ back & fourth sway lightbar.
Looking good! Love the power call. I wish we could have lights and sirens on POV in Maryland. Our duty buggy has a powercall on it. Keep up the cool vids my guy!
The hhs2200 was a issue. That’s why we have the hhs3200. I’m in Texas and been with Whelen for 20 years. Whenever your ready to buy more lights or sirens hit me up. I carry Whelen,Feniex,soundoff,setina,streamlight, and fire tech scene lights. Lots of options for your truck.
@@NathanielTexas, It does seem like your Rumbler is set to 8 seconds as a default. I would increase it at least 30 seconds(if not all 60), because from the time you're coming up to the intersection, to the time you're going through it, is way more than 8 seconds and you definitely want to have it on while entering the intersection. I would have it run through the horn relay to activate Rumbler separately. So you just press the horn on the steering wheel while clearing the intersection.
What states can you use sirens in your pov im from Virginia and I'm unsure if it's just my department or if it's it's state law disallowing sirens and I was just wondering if anyone knew maybe a list of states where sirens are allowed cause I've been thinking about moving and I'd definitely take that into account
I’m not entirely sure what different states laws are. I just know WV. And usually not to bring politics into life, you can usually split the difference between red and blue states with POV laws
@@NathanielTexas I retired with 37 years on 09/01/2021 working metro senior corporal, never moved up.

Hey In Form germany so i have no Clue about how stuff works in US😅 Im a volunteer firefighter and we are absolutly not allowed to have sirens or lights on our Cars I dont know you really good so I dont know if you are a Full Time firefighter or not…would be awesome to learn something about that. Thanks a lot
Germany, that’s awesome!! Here in the US, each region has their own laws/regulations that each members and emergency personnel have to abide by while operating their personal vehicles. I’m also only volunteer. Welcome to my channel!

The only siren any pov needs is a Q. Just a Q and an air horn
Damn right

Thanks buddy! I wish y’all could too
Been watching you fro the past week. Love it.
Thanks for comin’ by!
Add some headlight strobes
I would go with some LED's in the headlights and fog lights.
Siren sounds amazing .
I’m not a fan of the new tones, but I can understand you for switching from the Smart Siren. Great video as always!
Thanks for watching buddy!
Cant wait intell you get the second siren speaker. Would be cool to have dual tones definitely dual powercall.
Hopefully it’ll sound majestic!
Looking forward to seeing in an action soon, I hope you post a new video

I definitely for sure will! Just out of curiosity, what issues with the 2200 were there?
I run to Grill lights up front I think that would work better then the small bar u have
Where’s your intersection warning?
So this hopefully is the final POV setup video? LOL love the siren man, all you need now is the federal Q i was talking about 🤣
🤣🤣
@@NathanielTexas,
It does seem like your Rumbler is set to 8 seconds as a default.
I would increase it at least 30 seconds(if not all 60), because from the time you're coming up to the intersection, to the time you're going through it, is way more than 8 seconds and you definitely want to have it on while entering the intersection.
I would have it run through the horn relay to activate Rumbler separately. So you just press the horn on the steering wheel while clearing the intersection.
I have one of those in my work vehicle. Good siren, however, the cable going into the controller has issues of separation.
I'll keep that in mind !
Did the rumbler come with the siren?
You should try the whelen alternate tones, those sound good!
What are the laws on the lighting and sirens? and or rules set by the station
Varies state by state then the department has say on what it allows their members to do
Pretty cool set up!
Thanks for stopping by, Ezi!!!
Side mirror lights would look good
They would!!
Got that same siren
Vair cool looking siren
Thanks for watching buddy!
No fire calls in 2 1/2 weeks? Or no calls at all?
you should tuck that red light on the grill into the grill
If I don’t will I be on the FBI watchlist? 🤨😅
@@NathanielTexas i uh- i- dont know what youre talking about..😳

I think ohio too, although idk as the wording of the laws in confusing alongside conflicting sources.
I love these tones!
I liked your video, I recommend getting more lights though. You can never have too many lights!
False, less lights with the correct positioning and slower patterns are far more effective than a bunch of blinkies looking like a carnival ride
@@djzazou we can agree to disagree. I think with faster lights it gets people's attention faster.
have you ever considered wig-wags for your headlights?
I have and I’ve looked into it. That’s way out of my wiring experience however. lol
Manuel Manuel
Can you do a virtual tour of your fire station
Maybe soon!
Holy whacker…
You know it
It's legal to have lights and sirens on a pov?
Probably in your state
What’s your first favorite siren?
I'm a big fan on the Federal Signal SSP3000B

Man that’s sweet I wanna be a fire fighter just so I can do that to my personal rig
I hope ur a chief buddy. If not you don't belong having sirens
Nope, state says otherwise!
What happened with the ssp3000b siren
I’m not entirely sure. I think the relay board has always had its own issues
