emergency services voulenteers
for those of you that are voulenteers as a emergency personal what kinda emergency lighting do you have? pics are good.
right now i just have the alternating wig/wags in headlights and tailight reverse light flashers, then threw a set of strobes in the fog lights and parking lights up front..
i just got my blue light allowed certificate and is hightly recommended getting them.. they recomend having 2 in rear, 2 in front and 2 on side.
i do not want a light bar as those are 1000 plus bucks.. im a voulenteer not paid i cannot afford to spend that kidna money.
i was prob just gonna get a set of 6 halogens as they are about 45 bucks a pop and a flasher to flash em. and hten maby a rearview mirror light..
was gonna stick 2 in the rear deck up in the corners, one in each side window in the extended cab and 2 behind the grill...
what do you have and what do you like dislike about em?
right now i just have the code3 alternating wigwag flasher system, and tailight flasher system, and 2 cheap autozone strobes for corners and fogs..
but getting blues asap.
aslo what do you do that requires use of lights?
im part of a search and rescue group and emergency corps.

Me I just use a county Vehicle...
I have at my disposal crown Victoria's, a Mitsubishi montero, all outfitted with red and blue light bars and county markings..
or if I am on the water a couple of 28' Chevy powered twin screw boats or our newest addition a 33 foot Moose boat with twin cummins 5.9's and Franklin directions jets.. the boats are all outfitted with the latest electronics and pretty blue flashing lights on top..
I recently just did some fun helicopter operations with the coast guard.. practicing dropping rescue divers and cradles onto the aft deck from the helicopter.. Real wet but lots of fun...
2 of the pictures are the helo ops.. one of them was a funny stop one of my partners did at zuma beach in Malibu...

thats what we do also.. but most of us live 20 plus miles from the station. so its jump in personal vehicle flip on lights and haull **** to station to get vehicles.
and since we are in search/rescue mostly water ops.. time is critical....
