Nice collection, Ryan! It's one of many great contributions to this thread:thumbsup:! I've been wondering when you'd show off some of your stuff on here :cool: .

How so? Was it ordered that way?
I just got some green filters for my Mini centurion a few weeks back.


Again not trying to be the Grinch in the topic, Just wondering :D

No, you just never see the minis with clear domes. I've only seen them in blue (Europe), amber, or red/clear split. Yours and mine are the only ones I've seen that are all clear. This one was the mate to yours, each had a half red dome, half clear dome with red bulkhead. I switched the domes around, found a clear bulkhead, and ordered filters in each color. Besides the mini Liberty I built, it's my favorite bar.

Here's my 72" Aerodynic. Got it over 3 years ago and I have done nothing to it yet so it's dull and dirty but these lenses will soon be swapped out for NOS red/blue ones I got from emtanderson51.


MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Well, I did something different this year and made up my recently acquired 12X TwinSonic in alternating red/green. The clear 4464s have a green par 36 filters taped over the bulb holder clamps, but they still work pretty good to throw the green out. It runs at the top of every hour from 7-9pm for 15 min until Christmas day has past.


Of course, a short video to show it in action:D.

Ok so time to bring this thread back to life so I convinced my wife I will be adding some filters to a 58" mx7000 I have

So I found green filters for the 2 center rotators and green filters for the intersection sweeps

I may possibly be able to acquire two of these huge bars. We are replacing them with led bars due to the power problem. The engines these are on are getting old and starting to have numerous electrical problems. So far we've replaced three, and two are sitting on my bench in the shop. Im gonna ask in the next week or two whats gonna happen to them and see if they can come home with me. If so, one will no doubt be candy cane! And we still have, uummm, I think two or three to replace this year.

What are you using to power the MX7000?

A clear lensed AeroTwin or regular Twin with red/green par36s would do the trick ;) . I don't know who has this TS 12, but it's certainly festive!



My wife walked into my office while I was playing this (yes, I played the whole thing!), shook her head and walked out...she just doesn't get it.


Thank you for kicking my Christmas Spirit into high gear!

I've been enjoying the splash of green here; but I've been told that green is limited to command vehicles. I find that interesting, because on "Chicago Fire" on NBC, you can see lots of green on their firetrucks and rescues.

Green lights have different meanings in different places, both across the country, and around the world. In some places, green is an emergency color. In other places, the use of green is completely unregulated. There is some relevant discussion regarding green in the http://elightbars.org/forums/f13/official-location-based-warning-hide-away-leds-general-meaning-discussion-thread-30732/.
