Nice looking trucks. Best of luck with them!

In my opinion, "Snow Men" was a good show. I hope they come out with an explanation or start to air it again.

Thanks for all you time spent helping to turn EMTBravo into the great site that it is today.

Just thought share a pleasant experience I recently had involving purchasing LED Lights. I have always been a fan of Whelen and have always purchased Whelen LED Lights. However, as everyone knows, these lights are quite expensive. I found a company that I am sure some people have heard of...Prestige Emergency Lights. These lights are much cheaper than Whelen lights and provide a nice alternative. I know there are a lot of companies out there making emergency LED lights but I feel for the price, Presitge is quite good. They offer grille lights, dash lights, four six and eight head sticks, a visor light, and a arrow stick. All of these are much cheaper than most companies. A nice feature is the color selection. These come in all colors and can have split patterns. No matter what pattern or color combination you chose, the cost is the same. All colors are in stock and ship quickly. I currently own two Blue/Clear PEL Dual Dash-deck LIN SLIM light. These lights are quite bright and look identical to the Whelen Slimlighter. The brightness of the lights might be a little less impressive than Whelen but most people do not even notice a difference. The lights have plenty of pattern to choose from via push button on the back of the unit. this light goes for $76.95 while a Whelen Slimlighter goes for close to $200! All lights come with a 6 year warranty. Recently I had a minor problem with one of my units so I returned it and received a replacement very quickly. The customer service is quite good. I have never waited more than an hour or two to have an email answered. Prestige also sells other brand lights such as Whelen, etc. You can create an sellers account with them as well. For people looking for lights, I strongly recommend considering Prestige. **Also, lights can be returned for a full refund within a certain time limit if you are not 100% satisfied...worth giving a try if you ask me!**

Does something similar apply to fire tucks, ambulance, utilities, etc? Just curious because I do not think I have ever seen a light bar that flashes all LED's simultaneously.

Amber?

This is a little confusing if you ask me. Is it saying that this law does not apply to white lights? This is a very good idea!
-
One of my buddies uses Speedtech Lights. they are very good lights. One of his lights came with a LED that did not work. Besides that they seem to be great lights.
-
Does the same apply to pictures in your opinion?

I was not trying to take jobs away from Americans by starting this thread. I was just informing people of a product that can be purchased as an alternative for whatever reason...financial...preference...ect. Trust me I have been very loyal to Whelen. I have bought many of their products and have gotten many people to do the same. If I had the money at the time that I outfitted my car, I would have gone with Whelen in a heart beat but.

I too have a slim miser and also 2 TIR3G's and agree that Whelen is a great company and has exceptional lights and proved outstanding customer service. I also loved my Whelen Dual Talons (which I no longer have) I thought that clear meant nothing and a vehicle could have clear lights facing in any direction but they mean nothing. It is simply chosen out of taste. I could be completely wrong though.

They are a little dimmer than Whelen's but they are a lot cheaper in cost. I have never had an issue during the day responding. People always seem to move out of the way as soon as they see my car. Both the blue and the clear seem to be visible. they are also behind the stock tint stripe across the top of my windshield. I have not noticed less of a response by the public when responding in comparison to my blue Whelen lights. People will always have there opinions about lights. I am not saying Prestige lights are the best by any means but they are cheap and do a great job of moving traffic.

Not at all....

I will have to check. If you feel like it shoot them an email and they will answer you then let us know. On a different note, they are located and ship from Brooklyn, NY.

I agree to stay away and fight it from a distance. Also, we are taught when searching and moving around in a structure to check and listen for a floor. Perhaps something like this can be done outside too...of course if time allows. Safe bet however is to stay away and fight from a far. I am glad that no one got hurt.

How much did the response times change? Perhaps the slightly slower response time is worth the extra safety measures and possibility of having solid evidence in court. I was more so referring to the cameras images being pulled out when needed, not being monitored frequently. I also specifically meant outward facing cameras. I can see how inward facing cameras could pose an issue to personnel privacy and can catch them doing minor infractions such as sleeping on the job. However, should you be sleeping on the job? Probably not...however, I know there are times when everyone needs and does take a nap. If the response times were only lowered slightly then I do not see it as a very big negative when you weigh in the possible positives of having this footage. Also, do most of the calls we are responding to require the quicker response? Or are we just sick of hearing the public complain? Since there is such a high volume of "bulls***" calls in the emergency service field today, most accidents are happening responding to the "bs" calls. Since this is the case, would a slight increase in response time due to increased safety and awareness or risk taking be a terrible thing?
-
Total bulls***! It amazing how common it is for such important things to be cut. When will people learn???
-
Very cool! I hope eligible building take advantage of this great opportunity.

I agree with how all of this media coverage is just promoting the drink. I mean if you look at this post, there have been a handful of people who have tried the drink just because of this thread. Imagine how many kids will try it if they continue to see it in the news and here discussions about it. I think all the media coverage is doing further damage. Banning will not work, this has been done before. Shortly after one thing is banned something more powerful comes along and gets into the hands of kids, and irresponsible adults.
