My son loves Thunderbolt sirens, especially those that are wired backwards.

The thunderbolt should not be brought back. It is an outdated siren. Sure just because it sounds nice doesn't mean we should have it made again. Plus, there are many fail points on such a siren. From the motor control cabinet to the 3 motors. The is no way to make it maintaince-free. You have to oil the roots blower, the rotation drive once every two years for it to work properly. And with my experience working on a thunderbolt, they are a PITA to troubleshoot. , honestly I like the siren itself, but it is not worth redesigning it.

I strongly agree that the thunderbolt siren should be brought back. Recently the thunderbolt sirens in my community have been replaced with American signal t-128 sirens. They are not bad sirens, but I like the thunderbolts better. They are very good quality sirens.

BRING BACK THE CHOPPER SIRENS. modern ones are way too quiet and easy to ignore.

i grew up listening to these and they actually get your attention when a storm is coming. why replace something that works perfectly fine?

nothing beats the dual tone wail of a 1003. these new electronic ones sound like a dying toaster compared to the real deal
