When do we get a video of the blower running the siren

I would not think he's crazy enough to run it with the blower in a closed garage.

Eric, I do remember you PMing me about that.
The way it is now is loud enough

One day in the future I will run this completely. But for now you'll just have to wait.

I have wondered if they make a 110VAC motor that I can swap out the 240 VAC one?

Just like for the rotation motor, i've looked into the grainger catalog, and there are 1000's of motors in there, it's a bit overwhelming.

A 110 volt blower motor would pull so many amps it would pop the breaker as soon as you threw the switch. You could pulley it down so the blower turns much slower and possibly power it with a 5 horsepower motor.

The blower run is going to be BAD arse

Eric, you should also try running the siren one time with the pressure relief valve weights and cover removed. Since the blower is positive displacement, it does not allow free air to flow through when it's not running. Fully opening the pressure relief valve should allow some extra air to be sucked into the chopper and give it some extra power. Very cool recordings though.

The weights are not on the valve in all of my videos of my t-bolt.
