    I always wondered why dont they do the "escape" tone? And they arent doing the proper "all clear" tone... they are doing a tone that broadmoor escape sirens dont do
    EDIT: when the siren was running down it didnt close the shutters imidialtly it runned downed a bit and then it closed them unlike the broadmoor sirens wich the shutters close imidialtly.

      I think the tone is called "attack" wich the broadmoor sirens dont do

    sad that they don't use the shutters, why even get the CS model if you don't use its key feature?

    • @BritishLifeSafetySystems

      The shutters are still being used, to dampen the wind down

      You replied to this in the time it takes for the rotors to stop, I'm rather surprised
      I still liked how the Broadmoor system actually used them to do the hi-lo-hi-lo sound instead of just dampening.

      I have no clue, plus they ceased production in around 2005, so they can no longer be bought through Klaxon

      In my country, you can buy one of them, i remember that the CS8 (with solenoids) i bought was around 12,400,000 ₽ Рублей, Rublej, but it depends in which region, state, Okrug, district, area or Subject, Субъектов, the price of the article changes, except in the Republic of Jakútija, Saha, where sirens cannot be owned.

      but i think the store where i bought it was illegal, it is supposed to have a higher price but in Nikolaevsk, you can find stores like this where prices are lowed down, i bought it for almost 4,000 ₽, Рублей.
