What psi do you use for your Hadley horns?

100 is what I’d recommend. I run 150 but it’s being restricted by a hefty run of 1/4” airlines due to the mounting locations

If I may. They also have an electric ball valve. You just wire a two-way momentary switch for open and close. You just got to wire the switch for reverse polarity

@@texasboystv in case KZfaq is still being funny about external links just type in electric ball valve. Amazon has a bunch of them. Just as a little electric actuator that opens and closes the ball valve. Actually I use it for controlling the heater temperature in my truck on the heater line. But considering you can feather it for that I don't see why it wouldn't work for an air horn. And then I've just got it set up to a two-way momentary switch so I can stop it where I want it

I had been going through ty he same issues on my 1958 aluminum tabby modified by N&W to full orfices. I also ran every combo possible of back caps. Chambers, and bells. I cant tell you how many times i broke out those 1/2 " wrenches lol. There was aluminum oxidation powder gluing the diaphragms and difuser plates. The ones with the least resistance randomly stole the air from the more stubborn ones. Sometimes the 55 got it. Or the 31 or the 44, etc. Finally cleared up and has performed consistently for the last three weeks

I just put a k5lla on my truck and I love it. I’ve noticed with my k3 and k5. When it’s a nice warm day and dry they are so loud. And when it’s rainy not as loud why is this just the sound doesn’t travel as well or what ? Figures you might know the answer. Keep up the kick ass videos.
@texasboystv 2 ай бұрын
Depends on what kind of vehicle you have. I notice on a hot day they don’t seem as loud and on a cold day I better be careful because the sound will travel for miles in the dense air. Could be that you fill your tank at 100’ and honk at 70’. You will have some pressure loss from temp change. I normally see 10-20 psi gain from morning to afternoon on 20 gallons. Also what direction you have them mounted and ac will muffle sound. Lots of factors at play

@texasboystv 2 ай бұрын
200 is too much. This video is at 120. Maybe your problem is the diaphragms are getting stuck open. 200 will eventually break the diaphragms. That’s way to high. Go to harbor freight and put a in line pressure regulator on it and I bet you’ll be happy with the result
@texasboystv 2 ай бұрын
Also probably catching a bunch of junk when you drive. Best practices to face it towards the ground or to the rear of the truck. I know that’s not what you want but if you want your horn to survive, that’s what I would recommend.
