If there's one thing I learned from being a siren enthusiast, it's that if it exists, there's a community and hobby formed around it. Neurodivergence is a helluva drug.
Quick! You can only take 3 sirens to a deserted island with you, which three do you choose!?
BNCO Mobil Directo (variant with a Wisconsin gas engine), a Federal Signal model 500-SHTT, and a B&M 20-AR-10.
Of course, this being a deserted island and all, the latter two wouldn't be able to function and I'd probably only have limited fuel for the Directo, but they're my favourites so it's better than nothing lmao
You know your interest is obscure when it throws Google for a loop:
Yeah, AI has absolutely no clue when it comes to sirens lmao. The Air Raid Sirens Wiki is where you want to go if you want to learn about sirens.
like loud things or fish people?
Loud spinny devices that do loud things.
Sea sirens are loud and can swing in circles, so they still count
Okay, what I mean is the kind of siren that is made of metal and/or fibreglass, contains a mechanical chopper/motor or electronic speaker, and is most often found on wooden poles and rooftops and used for civil defense!
Unfortunately, I'm afraid the sea isn't too kind to warning sirens lmao
i don't care what you do with your mermaids, but stuffing them with that stuff, even if its for civil defence, sounds unethical.
Yes?
Isn't every man a psiren enthusiast unless they have access to wax?
