Whelen Edge 9000 bars..?

Post by Woody_99 »

Hey, what's the market for these bars?

I've been offered a big stack of them, 4 strobes, 4 halogen, alleys and takedowns. Some have an added siren speaker.

However; they don't look easy to ship, etc... worth maybe $150 each?
Lenses are blue, and they have several feet of wire.

Curious if there is an outlet or website or refurb company that buys these things?

thanks,

Yeah, after seeing nothing but LED at the Dayton show, I figured the sudden offering wasn't just chance...
Also, funny thing- half of the lights I saw were "cute and flashy" but didn't seem bright enough to be seen beyond 10 yards...

Appreciate the help!

Those are most likely the original 9000 series bars. $150 at the most. Nice bars, just a pain to ship.

As stated, usually throwing a new set (or a nice set) or lenses on it...amber...usually works.

Best bet is to clean them up, take some pictures and put them up on lightbarn.com
