if that first one has a sterling tag then it could be some sort of K-5 siren unless sterling re-branded sireno sirens.
Jacob, The sterling tag is for the motor. The motor is a Sterling Electric motor, the company is based in Los Angeles. The siren is made by Sireno. Like I said earlier, every time Federal made a vehicle siren, Sireno made their own version, so it doesn’t surprise me they did the same with stationary sirens.
Oh I thought sterling re-branded it.
The OP said there was a Sireno logo on another tag...

I'm not by any means. See, Sireno made simple motor-chopper-stator-in-housing sirens. It would be too complex to reverse engineer or rip on a siren that required a rotator and compressor. Plus, it wouldn't be very feasible for them to do so is my hypothesis.

They were focused more on mobile sirens. Copying the Thunderbolt would really be pushing it.
Proud owner of a 4/5 Thunderbolt, Federal Sign & Signal SD-10, large Heath Engineering Siren, and a bunch of smaller sirens.

Oh man, that looks like the Weeksville station south of Elizabeth City. I've driven by it many times and wondered what the type was exactly. It's a rare siren! I live over on the OBX. Are there any prpblems with it?
yea we have it working on a motor starter right now we don't know what happened to the timer switch box

Beginning to wonder if the Lawrenceburg, KY and the similar looking Toledo Siro-Drone's are actually these...
