Review on πŸš‚ Wolo Orient Express Train Horn - 3 Trumpets with Direct Drive Compressor (843) by Brian Kingsford

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Not worth it.: Lighting and Electrical

I really liked how this horn sounded online and how impressive it looked. I ordered it for my RV which had plenty of room to install it. PLEASE NOTE that it CANNOT be installed outside the vehicle. If even a few drops of rainwater get on the horns, they stop working. Then you need to take each horn apart and dry a small, brittle plastic disc. After the horn was mounted back down to the street, it still wasn't very loud. I contacted WOLO and for $58 they sent me an upgraded air compressor which they say increases horn performance. Why they didn't just include this horn compressor model is beyond me. When it arrived it looked exactly like the stock supercharger, no markings or model numbers on any of the superchargers. As far as I know I now have two identical compressors. When I plug it in, I'm still very unimpressed by the horn. The sound is what you hear on the record, but it's nowhere near the loud sound you'd expect from something this big. It's a pity that I didn't order another compressor or threw away the box, otherwise I would have sent it back.

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • Useless features
