Carson Releases NEW SA-365 Defender Siren

Carson Sirens announces the release of its NEW SA-365 Defender siren. At first glance, you might notice that the SA-365 closely resembles the existing Carson SA-360 Defender. The SA-365 has, in fact, replaced the SA-360, but has not replaced the features and functionality that made it an industry leader.

Where the similarity ends between the two models is in chassis size. The SA-365 has been engineered with a reduced internal electronics footprint, resulting in a chassis that is almost 50% smaller than that of the SA-360. Additional features include removable terminal block wiring for simple, plug-in connection to the amplifier, and external DIP switches for easy siren customization.

Carson Introduces the NEW H-Series Electronic Air Horn Line

Carson Sirens is proud to introduce the new H-Series electronic “stutter” air horn line of audible warning products. This line features LOUD and LEGAL*, professional grade products that incorporate the power of a simulated “stutter” air horn with auxiliary light control and the reliable Carson quality not found in other aftermarket horn products.

The H-Series was developed to enhance emergency light packages in volunteer firefighter personally owned vehicles (POV) by offering a legal* audible warning solution to those volunteers that work in states that restrict siren use.

*Legal in most states. Please consult your local/state vehicle codes to ensure compliance with vehicle horn regulations.

Carson Improves Upon SA-361 Defender Design

The SA-361 Defender remote siren (SA-361-10 14) has been redesigned with a new look and added functionality! The improved Defender combines the same simple operation, reliable performance and fullfeatured siren options as the original SA-361, but in a smaller, more compact amplifier.

Size and user-friendly serviceability were the motivating factors in the redevelopment of this industry favorite. These key factors were achieved through the addition of terminal block wiring, which offers simple, plug-in connection to the amplifier; and the reduction of the internal electronics footprint resulting in a smaller amplifier with more versatile installation capabilities. The rugged SA-361 Defender remains the affordable choice for law enforcement, security, and volunteer firefighters.

The model number for the new SA-361 will be SA-361-20 14. This model number should be referenced when placing orders or making product inquiries. Please note that the SA-361-20 14 will replace the current SA-361-10 14 model. The SA-361-20 14 will be available for sale starting in April 2010.
