the CICCA siren rabbit hole
Posted: Sun Feb 18, 2024 11:22 am
i am a french siren enthusiast, and the first siren i ever saw was this one : https://www.google.fr/maps/@43.5585476, ... ?entry=ttu (I DID NOT DOXX MYSELF, I DO NOT LIVE IN THAT TOWN ANYMORE.), at the time i did not know french sirens were not us sirens, so i called it a STL-10 (LMAO), but now, i know it is a very rare CICCA siren with short horns and no bevel gear motor. it sadly is inactive. then when i searched more about CICCA sirens, it just kept on going. and the entire CICCA sirens thing turned into a rabbit hole. and just one thing, yes i do know the big french sirens brand like Construction Electrique Du Nord but we are talking about CICCA here. and i only found very limited information about them : i found a video of a bevel gear one from British Pathé but thats all, and the worst part is that he also reuploaded it with a diffrent name. there is also that one in Brazil but that is a 8 horn one, and all of these have the big horns, not small horns, then theres this : https://www.leboncoin.fr/bricolage/1951877132.htm wait what, its a 4 horn ??? the rabbit hole gets deeper, and why does he sell it with a 220v to 24v converter, does it run on 24v ??????? then https://www.leboncoin.fr/decoration/2490243079.htm OH MY GOD IT GETS DEEPER. i cant belive it. and somehow we still do not know what the 6 horn one sounds like, nor the 4 horn. we only know what the big 8 horn bevel gear one sounds like thanks to that brazil siren that sounds daily. but now its time for the reason i made this, do you guys have more information about CICCA sirens ? i will appreciate any information about them.
