Federal Signal Vista and Argent

Emergency Lighting
1

I own a Vista, it works okay.
It’s a 12V, but it has an extremely high power draw, which we discovered when my dad bumped the back of the power supply and burned his hand.
Unfortunately, the capacitors are quiet, so we don’t get the silly clicking or whining sounds

I’m wondering, though, if the Vista and the Argent have similar shapes and light positions. Are they somewhat related?

(also, my Vista is an all-red, halogen strobe. 12-18 amps, 144-216 watts, 12V DC)

Was about to ask what kind of Vista you have, as they come in both strobe & rotator versions, but then you say what kind it is at the end. Odd that there’s no clicking though: I know xenon strobes pretty much always click.

Yeah: gotta watch out for (& be careful around for that matter) that high amperage!

As for the Arjent, it does seem like it might have been the LED replacement for the Vista going by the very similar design.
