iceman1575 Posted September 18, 2010 Report Share Posted September 18, 2010 Anyone know somewhere or someone that is selling LED fire department lights? I recently joined the local VFD but I can't find anyone locally that sells gear like this. Can anyone point out where online I can find some lights/sirens or maybe if anyone wants to share about theirs, tips, etc.? Quote POTATO! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

finkster Posted September 18, 2010 Report Share Posted September 18, 2010 (edited) Dude those lights are super pricey. Most of the ones I've seen at fire expos that were decent were around like 400 bucks. Start saving up. http://www.firestoreonline.com/vehicleaccessories.aspx On a side note, can you ride yet? Edit: Also read up on your local laws about displaying them on your car. I never had one and would just haul ass to the firehouse (if it was safe of course)....oh shit...you guys may be allowed to respond to the scene in your own vehicles...forgot about that...

djdew23 Posted September 18, 2010 Report Share Posted September 18, 2010 you might want to find out what you can and cant have on your car.every place is diff read up on local ans state law to see what a vfd can have. im my area vfd can only have a blue light no red or sirens and the blue light must be on the roof. cant have it inside or in the grill and no head lights or side markers flash or strobe.and if you just joined i would wait a few months after . our local wants you there 6 months with all your training done be for you get a light.and the blue light just means nothing as well its curtisy you cant speed people do not have to move and you cant run lights or stop signs. so make your thoughts out well be for you spend $100 and up on a light Quote Alpine IDA-X200 Car Digital Media Receiver AMP = power acoustik cpt1 2200d SUBS = 3 re audio 10" voodoo fuse and distribution blocks Voodoo Power Wire Voodoo RCA Leads Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan208 Posted September 26, 2010 Report Share Posted September 26, 2010 www.galls.com And like was already mentioned, check with your local ordinances. Around here we need lights to be visible front and back, have an accompanying siren and be approved by the county commissioners. There are a few other state laws that apply, but I don't know them off the top of my head.

Applejack Posted September 26, 2010 Report Share Posted September 26, 2010 As a matter of fact i work with a guy selling his, (he's going to LED stealth lights). Light bar, siren whatever else is involved with it. I don't have any of the information but i can ask and get pics this week.I think he was asking around 200-300 for all. 125-150 for the lights.

iceman1575 Posted September 27, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 27, 2010 Well I talked to the chief and he said for now don't worry aobut lights as I can't respond yet, but he's debating on letting me respond in my car with an LED bar in the back, as I'm going to be ordering one for bike ride escorts. (My stepdad and his friends go on rides that are usually only front-escorted, noone to cut the back off, so it may help a bit)). It's the STL Signal Pro LED bar, hopefully gonna get it made custom R-C-R-C-R-C-R-C (red clear) for the rides mostly. Quote POTATO! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tacomabanga1986 Posted September 27, 2010 Report Share Posted September 27, 2010 lol, is there a law stating that u can have to many lights on ur car? lol i was gunna be in teh fire/rescue type thing but never went threw with it but i was gunna cover my truck wit so many lights it would move traffic more than a fire truck, ied had a federal q siren with a carson siren to go with it, maby some air horns from horn blowers.com ied have full 360 degree visability but it would just be for me type thing tho i kno of a few sites u could find something if i was u ied start out as cheap and as small as i could, and u could prolly check local pawn shops to see if anyone pawned any of there stuff the older halogen dash lights will tend to be cheaper or higher than newer led lights due to how they dont make as many halogens as they did back a few yrs ago, leds will last longer and give u the ability to change different flash patterns to soot what will clear traffic the best, most halogens only give u a handfull of patterns and thats if ur lucky, like dash lights, u can get a single light with flashback shield, or get the 5flash mirrow to give it a better look and a more traffic clearing ability with a few color options to help and with leds they can be brighter than halogens and last longer too, theres all diff kinds of lights u can get but it depends on budget, tast, laws, and what knot heres the sites http://www.strobemax.com/products.html http://www.autodirectsave.com/Police-Strobe-EMS-C4.aspx WWW.CAMPSAFETYINC.COM im more into collecting vintage halogen lights, i had a few growing up as a kid but some broke or got lost so all i got now is my federal signal 184 power light becon with red dome and 4 bulbs, heres a video of one like the one i got just a hobbie of mine has been lights and what knot for about 20yrs lol and i still got a knack for it lol Quote here's a link to my system 99 toyota tacoma , 2 mtx 8000 1504's in a sealed downfire , 1000w memphis amp here's a link to my other system my 90 geo prizm test car heres a thread i got of new songs u can dl that are legal = Some Good Bangage/you Can Dl These Free And Legit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TritonBoulder47 Posted September 28, 2010 Report Share Posted September 28, 2010 (edited) My opinion is that STL is JUNK... I've never heard anything good about them, but I also don't have any personal experience with then either. Good luck... Here's what my Avalanche currently looks like from the front... Here's what I have: -Whelen 9622 Custom Edge Lightbar --12 strobes, Take Down Lights, Alley Lights, Rear Flashers, Rear Work Lights (that come on with the reverse lights) -Whelen Inner Beams (upper windshield) -Whelen 700 Series Linear LED heads (behind the grill) -Street Glow 12" LED tubes (between the tailgate and bumper) Whelen ULF-44 LED Flasher (Controlling the Inner Beams, 700s and the 2 LED tubes) Edited September 28, 2010 by TritonBoulder47 Quote 2011 Dodge Durango Citadel AWD HEMI - LOADED Stereo: STOCK Emergency Equipment: Morotola - Federal Signal - Feniex - Gamber Johnson Performance: MOPAR Performance - Diablo 911 Calltaker / Diaptcher, Volunteer Ambulance Driver, Rescue Tech, Fire Fighter, Fire Policeman, Emergency Equipment Installer / Repairman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
