    Honestly it was so long ago I don't remember. I think Whacker, but I could be wrong.

    Chinese knockoff has a different flash pattern. Whelen is much brighter.

    Nearly looks like one of our unmarked Police Vehicle's here in Concord, New Hampshire, except we have Ford's though not Chevy's, wish we had some Dodge Charger's in our Police Department as well.

      Good lord, dork, why do you use apostrophes for plural words? Did you miss the entire 3rd grade?

    While I hate Chinese knockoff's just as much as anyone else, the comparison is pretty unfair considering your Chinese knockoff uses one watt LED's and the avenger uses either 3 watt or 5 watt. And, both are advertised correctly. To be fair, you probably should have known that one uses less power thus will emit less light than the other and same to everyone who buys one.

    Everything under the sun for all types of budget. Not everyone can drive a Porsche but a soup up Honda can also have some speed and power. Is it better? It's about budget. So don't see the point of this comparison.

      “Budget” and safety while going through traffic on a fire call don’t go hand and hand.
      Not being seen is a big safety issue.

      @@evanmanley1126 it doesn't guarantee safety, maybe visibility certainly not SAFETY!
      Safety makes up a number of different practices most certainly defensive driving, alertness, focus and reflex.
