Military blinker buzzer installed

[MtnSnow]

I would love to see a video with sound while the beasts are being driven so that real world volume of the buzzer over the sounds of a driven truck can be determined. I really like the idea of a very simple and clean install but if it can't really be heard when operating the truck doesn't do me any good and I'll just run some wiring from the bulb socket to activate a piezo buzzer mounted to the steering column if need be. Wouldn't be as clean a install but for sure would be loud enough to hear.

Mike, come up some time and we'll go for a ride in my A0. I can hear it just fine
with the holes in the green cover.

I think it is hard to hear because he has deuce and most guys wear ear protection in the deuces do to how loud they are I will do a video on the way to work tomorrow and post it in this thread.

Nice solution, beats my diode-to-the-low-air-buzzer approach. The low air buzzer is probably much louder, though.

Here is the hook-up (M35);

Well I got mine and it worked perfect. I have a deuce which is much louder than a 5 ton but it has a Donaldson muffler so it isn't as bad as a straight pipe. The installation was quick and easy. If I put the original green cover over the bulb it is very quiet but after drilling a couple 1/8" holes in the sides it was plenty loud enough to be heard with the truck running without it being blarring!!
Here are a few pics. I also got their magnetic cupholder and that works great as well. I sure would of loved to of had that for my 400+ mile trip home several weeks ago. It mounts solidly and could easily be drilled if someone wanted to permanently mount it.

Ok there should of been instructions with the buzzer we prepack them, ok send me your info and i will see if i can find you a new cover for your flasher i don't want to see you driving around with holes in it.

I had to drill two holes in mine also to increase the sound volume, I think the cover is too close to the LED and it muffles the beeper.

ok here is the video while driving granted a 5ton is quieter then the deuce

and a video where to drill the holes to make it louder if you do the holes like in the video you can't see them but it is a lot louder and you can drill bigger holes and make it louder then the video above

Pretty much where I put the holes on my deuce. Without drilling the holes it is much too quiet for a deuce. With a couple small holes on sides, you don't even see them, it is much louder and fine for a deuce with a muffler. If you have a straight piped deuce that you need ear muffs to drive you are not likely to hear much, let alone the buzzer.

I just installed mine and it annoys the crap out of me.......So, it works great! I can even hear it with earphones on. Great idea! Thanks Those Military Guys.
