    Anyone heard of the Stebel air horn?

    They seem to be popular with bikers. They are 139 Db's of attention-grabbing, cager-pants-pooping noise. I think I can install one without it looking ugly and obvious. My only question is- will our low output generators handle it? I realize that I'll need a relay.

    Anyone have experience with this?

    Yes, you can install it. Yes it most definitely needs a relay. Yes the bikes can handle it -- short bursts of power use are not a big problem.

    I'm running their electric version with no problem. It came with a relay. I needed wiring and a fuse block to complete the install. The electric version comes in at 136db, and it does get peoples attention. :)
