Is it a less modern version of the AR/AF Timer?

No, that looks like one of the newer timers that Jmarcoz sells. What is not shown in the video is a safety button that must be pressed in before the siren will start. This prevents someone from accidentally hitting the button and setting it off.

The AR/AF isn't modern by any means, they are not being made anymore.

I never said modern, I said less modern, pertaining to the fact that the most modern version is the most recently released (and discontinued) version of it, and comparing it to the one used here...
