My Thunderbolt 1000 Emergency Activations for 3 Tornado Warnings 2-6-2020

- Recorded in the morning of February 6, 2020. This is a video of my Thunderbolt 1000 sounding off for 3 TORNADO WARNINGS for my county (Spartanburg County) and my area. Just a note that the control wire that connects the AR Timer to the Thunderbolt's RCM failed. So we had to manually do it. I had a siren/EAS enthusiast (ClayRanger143) over at my place for the severe weather event. I know I was going very crazy because I FINALLY got to sound off my Thunderbolt 1000 for tornado warnings!
About the first siren activation, the tornado warning wasn't directly for my area. The tornado warning was about 8 miles east away from my area. There was an EF-1 (winds approximately 110 mph) tornado touch down in Spartanburg, SC on a 10 mile path. Damages were reported for that area. Fortunately, there were no reports of injures or deaths.
The second tornado warning was for next to my area even though the tornado warning was for my nearby county (Greenville Co.). The first reason why I sounded my Thunderbolt for it was because half of my Thunderbolt's coverage reaches to SW Greenville County. (My Thunderbolt's coverage is between SW Greenville County, SW Spartanburg County but siren is in SW Spartanburg County.) And the second reason for that I somehow I received the WEA (Wireless Emergency Alerts) for my area. My siren's third activation was for the updated Southeast Greenville County tornado warning (Severe Weather Statement) for my area. I sounded my Sterling Little Giant and ClayRanger143 sounded my Thunderbolt 1000. The Sterling Little Giant failed during the activation was due to rain got into the exposed power source wire (wire is connected between the motor starter to the Little Giant). There were no reports of a tornado for the Southeast Greenville Co. tornado warning.
The siren's forth activation was for the tornado warning about 7 miles south away from my siren's location. There were no reports of a tornado.
Notes: I was not meaning to sound my Thunderbolt for about 6 minutes for the first activation since I could not calculate well.
Siren Information:
My Thunderbolt 1000 is a single phase model (1000B). Blower is 4M. My Thunderbolt was on a temporary use for this event since it was supposed to be restored.
Recorded by:
Siren clip: Panasonic HC-V180
Weather radios clip: Panasonic HC-V500M
NOAA Weather Radio audio recorded from my EAS encoder/decoder (Sage Endec)
All of the weather radios for the last video clip are owned by me. - Věda a technologie

Christopher: Outside manually operating his area's only siren
Technically 1 of his areas 7 sirens, just all of the sirens are also owned by him
@@FireAlarmFreak e
He is going to fly to Kmart
Good Lord, I hope he found his basement or interior room pretty quick after he hit that button
@@TheAdams_Channel516 I
just laughed my a$$ off!! Thank youfor that
Regular people: *has trampoline and pool in backyard
Trainsandsirens1: *has 3 tornado sirens in backyard*
He actually has another one back there you just can’t see it.

7, he has a 1003 a model 5 and 5T, a 1000, STH, mod, model 2, little giant, a 2T, a 2001-130 and I think that’s all a lot more than 7
Ten tornado sirens
15:50 imagine having a nice dream about your thunderbolt and you yet scared awake by that. that would trigger my anxiety so hard.
NOT THE CHILLS AGAIN
Same here but I'm used to the sound of tornado sirens to the point where I want to grab my phone and record it (with hearing protection obviously)
@@bengalsfan04 i was talking about the radios, the siren i love.
@@United_HVAC_and_Fans sorry I didn't know
thats why i dont keep my weather radio in my room
When You went crazy I couldn’t stop laughing

15:50 not just an emergency warning alarm it'd be one heck of an alarm clock.
ikr
hello its me Thunderbolt 1003
If I heard any one of those, especially them all together, I would certainly wake up in the middle of the night Yeah, that’s a lotta radios going off.
That thing needs to be mounted on a pole to get the full effect
Full effect to destroy a mountain
I love the sound of this siren, good job dude and keep up the hard work to keep these the healthiest sirens on youtube
And your community, safe!
Wow. I always thought that was kind of cool how you activated them along with the system for actual severe weather warnings as well as tests! That is… … Really cool!! your neighbors… They must not know what to think! I first found your channel because of the news story, actually, as I was first getting curious about how these sirens work. That may have only been a little more than a month ago, but I’ve learned so much cool stuff already, and I’ve been watching your channel and others since. Thank you, and others, for the positive experience.
This is hilarious. Thank you for the much needed laughs.
I have so many questions 😂😂 but can’t stop laughing!!!
First of all a tornado siren that's nothing to be laughing at that was not a test that was real so you laughing at something that is dangerous Brian are not nice they
You gotta have it so you aren't standing outside in lightning around big metal objects.. I get the passion but you are risking your life to run the sirens and may do more harm than good if you get struck by lightning. Gotta figure out a way to activate them inside and preferably IN TORNADO SHELTER.. Just my 2 cents as I'm heavily involved with storm chasing and severe weather in tornado alley
@@kimberleeandrus7205 Shut the fuck up and quit being so sensetive.
Trainguy15 / RobloxianSpartaRemixer he cares about his neighbors and keeps them safe with his sirens.
@@jbtornado He has a control panel in his bedroom that has a button he can push to set this off but it failed so he was forced to go outside and manually do it.
It's so wholesome to see you guys having so much fun, despite the weather situation.❤
Bruh I love how the panel door just went *clunk*
😂 🌪💨 *insert panel door emoji hear*
Great Activations!! That Thunderbolt 1000 Sounds AMAZING!!!
The foaming is real
*ikr*
Glist yes!
Lol yes
LMFAO it’s OK that you went crazy! That is both super scary and super exciting! Also, OMG thank you for sharing this!
This is my favorite video on the internet! What a setup you have!
This is the video that made me love your videos. It's crazy have seen you grown.
Wow! Glad you finally got to use it!
The way your friend ran outside barefoot with sound protection on and almost falling over 😂😂😂😮😮😮.
Hard to believe its already been 1 year since this came out! Time flies! Very jealous of ur sirens XD
now 2 more years
@@NS-Sirens yes lol
lol
This Gave Met MAD Chills For The Past 2 Minutes At The Start. Lol
I Think You Can Hear Other Sirens Near By As Well
I love every single moment of this video!
@@MMRBKane not
I really love your tornado siren collection
HOLY CRAP You went crazy! Lol Nice Video!
I’ve never heard a tornado warning originally being from California and we haven’t had any here in Kansas yet, but that siren gives me ANXIETY. Sounds like the siren from Silent Hill that always creeped me out as a kid
Venessa Bosquez youll never forget the first time you actually experience one. My family was stationed at Ft. Riley Geary county. I’ll never forget when a tornado moved the roof off of my friends house it was absolutely nuts.
My advice to you is to stay calm, and go to your safe place with your loved ones and pets.
This is so cool! Wish I had that many sirens especially that beautiful 1000!
I wish I had the mod and the one next to it and the 1000 and maybe even a whelen
You guys are heroes for doing that! Do you know that?
Idc if that was acting or legit panic. The beginning is gold.
Its legit lol
Where I live (Oregon) they don't have a good warning system outside of EAs and we do get twisters I always wanted to blare one when we have a tornado warning. But we been having more and more wildfires and in some parts of the state they have these sirens for fire watch my town was almost taken out in 2020 by wildfire and I'd like to see them use a siren like the Tbolt 1000 in case we have another fire emergency up river. Heck I'd get the permission to activating it if they decided on installing one at our firestation. Currently due to covid the CERT program is on hold as I am going to go into that. You did awesome for alerting your area that does not have a siren. you saved lives thank you. we need more people out there that care enough to do stuff like this.
Bet you hope to get that AR timer wire fixed so you don't have to stand out in the rain. Great video 👍
I love your channel!!!!!
You brave soul. My hat is off to you, my friend.
PURE INSANITY 10!!!!!!!!! A wild ClayRanger143 appeared!
Very cool love it!! ♥️♥️♥️👍🔥🔥😄😍 But I feel bad for you getting 3 tornados for your county😞
never thought i'd see a privately owned siren "fired in anger" glad you were therr :)
I appreciate your enthusiasm but remember that the first step to being safe in these events is to remain calm. I speak as a retired LEO. Still funny!
I think he was just panicking to activate the siren. I would love to hear the frantic swearing, that would have been funny.
@@WindowLickingDeer They were excited to activate it lol they weren't panicked they like this kind of weather. So do i
@@marylandsirensfirebuff9664
I love watching thunderstorms! When a thunderstorm rolls in I will sit on my back porch with a glass of whiskey and watch.
@@WindowLickingDeer Nice lol
@@MMRBKane ?
15:51 holy mother of thunderbolts-
This is amazing!
This is amazing thank you guys for keeping your neighborhood safe
If you don't mind me asking, what is your setup, where did you get it, and how much did it cost?
How did you get the LED Messaging Board connected?
I'm Happy TrainsAndSirens1 Exist To Keep People Safe :)
I do this too with my sirens but they aren’t as loud as his sirens
DrabProgram what??? My sirens just aren’t as big as his so they aren’t as loud. You can hear my siren from 1 1/2 miles away you can hear his sirens from up to 3 miles away
DrabProgram there are a tone around me. I live in Illinois, and just go on eBay. I bought a model L for $500 on eBay
DrabProgram mine need to be restored but most don’t. It depends on the condition they are in. If you search up model a siren about 15 show up on the first page
@@Midwest_Sirens Usueally if you make a siren chopper, to make it louder you must force air into the chopper just like that Thunderbolt 1000. The more air you put into the chopper the louder it gets
for long times i watch EAS , i just imagine what happen to them, and now, i just watch something that more terrifying than i thought
The timing of the siren and EAS alert is cool.
Agree. I also laughed really hard when he got those crazy Zumiez after the first one came in. When he was screaming “Set it off!! Set it offf!! Set it off!! Oh my god!!” I couldn’t stop laughing because that’s such a genuine reaction. I mean, you can hear how scared yet excited that guy was
0:08
😂
Got chills lol been right in the path of one when I was younger
what led bar is that it's cool I want one to read my alerts
Seconds matter in a tornado warning! Great job by everyone!
Круто получилось! Продолжай снимать подобное!!!
thank u for warning us
That's awesome!
I love the attack tone😭
1000 sirens at once well that’s what it feels like
It’s a good way to alert the neighborhood if you have a siren in the city lol
It’s good that they saving people’s life
12:51 great mashup
How do you get the scroll led sign
Starts at 0:20
What do you have so many weather radios?
I love his thunderbolt. And i hate hungary, we only have not tested functionless ds 977 and some wierd sh!t. I got an imi al 1578. And the new system (MoLaRi: Monitoring és lakossági riasztó rendszer) is so quiet. 500m/1 siren. Piecw of driver sh!t. I love your thunderbolt man! If i were to go to americe i would film one
love it love it love it. nice to see you saving lives with your siren
This video.📻📢❤️❤️❤️❤️
Wow! you outta get that control wire fixed. also how come you didn't put the thunderbolt on the pole?
i love your thuntherbolt 1000
What model is that for the sliding text?
Lucky. How many volts can your house do?
I remember that day, rip westgate area
Thats awesome
LOL! I can’t stop laughing at the start!
Oml!! XD Hope you guys are safe!!!
400th comment, where do you get these sirens?
That was awesome!
I really didn't like how his Thunderbolt kept spinning when the blower turned off. It's So Wrong 🤣
Will you ever sound your sth 10 or the modulator?
Modulator is not hooked up.
TrainSpotterSGM Ist The Modulator Broken anyway. 2nd The Fredral Singal Sth10 Is Not Hard Wired So It Dosent Sound.
@@yourboynashhh thanks
No Problem!
TheSentryHolwer His modulator isn’t broken, it just has dead batteries that need to be replaced, according to his latest video on the modulator.
What’s with the fight at beginning?
This would honestly be me if I had one of these
I was in spartanburg highschool during the tornado but it was close to us but didn't do any damage it made the lights flicker
The foam is strong with this one! 😏🤣
We can all ways rely on a thunderbolt to save us
Hey your state did not have a tornado siren right?
What are the two boxes to the right in the room? Like the yellow one with the blue and red lights and that little one above it?
That's the AR timer. It is used to control the signal the siren runs. He would've used it, but it wasn't working properly
Damn you're friends with the legendary EAS scenario god himself ClayRanger143? DAMNNNN
Nobody:
TrainsAndSirens1: Stands outside during tornado to set off thunderbolt siren in their yard
You're sooooo lucky you have a thunderbolt.
Can u do a vid where u show all ur sirens but dont have to sound them
5:34 That Celebration!! 🤣🤣
i want a setup like that but my parents would get so mad with all that noise lol
Im surprised you weren't worried about water getting in the control panel.
Thats cool! Do you guys just have that set up on your own or do you need permission to set one up by the city? I mean obviously you cant set it off whenever but when there is an active tornado warning in the area do you need city permission to operate it or is it good on its own so long the sounding isn't abused?
They got permission
Omg I was at school when the tornado touched down I remember having to go out into the hallway three times
May I ask what chopper level your 1000 is at?
Chopper 6.
Man I want one of these so bad. I live in the country but have neighbors close enough to where they’d hate me lol
Where did you get that scrolling board thing for the weather radio
That's the Day Brite display and it's connected to his Sage Endec
Do you need to have any special registration to obtain these sirens?
Nope. All you need is permission from your local authorities
I have a question: your sirens are still here as today? (EDIT: NVM, I WAS AN IDIOT AND DIDINT LOOK AT NEW VID)
Wouldn't the electronics get damaged by the rain? Those old AR panels didn't have any waterproofing.
Bruh, he ran out at the beginning of the video like Barry from The Goldbergs🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
1:17??😂😂6:56... Que?? 🤣
1:15
Sh*t, that day was sure scary.
Is the guy okay from the lighting strike
I wonder if anyone’s going to wonder where that siren came from
Where I live we don’t have sirens 😢
South Carolina really needs some sirens
You can do what theyre doing and be your town's sirens 🤔😄
you renoved the screen eventualy i see
How did you get that shit set up like that that’s kinda dope
I live in Augusta Ga We also had a Tornado Warning 2 days ago And We have Federal signal Modulators.
BronZLife am in Hephzibah where are the sirens in Augusta?
Caleb Troxel One in May Park Right across from The Richmond County Police Station You will see It when you pull in to the station Its in the Park Right Across the station.
BronZLife when do they test them?
Caleb Troxel I don’t Exactly sure when they test them but as soon I get more Info I will Get in touch.
