Has anybody got any good ideas on sounders. At BBSC we use twin 12V air horns but they draw a huge current and there is a momentary delay whilst the motor gets up to speed. I've tried a 120dB alarm sounder, which draws a fraction of the current and is as load but it makes a sound like a US police car - not what we want. Suggestions please.
