www.jcwhitney.com they have both electric and air powered horns. If you don't have an air system on your vehicle, just go with the electric one.

There are 3 kinds of people in the world, those who can count and those who can't

o my god that would be the perfect alarm. that gave me a grate idea. and for all i know you could be doing gust this. you could set it up so if somebody brakes into your car the horn would go off that would make him loss his hearing and would scare the crap out of him.

but be careful that horn can easily cause an accident.

Not to mention the COMPLETE illegality of it!

It all reminds me of something that Molière once said to Guy de Maupassant at a café in Vienna: "That's nice. You should write it down."

it would not be illegal as a security system, it would probably be illegal on the road though

It would be illegal through noise ordinances alone.

Trains are very much different then cars. Trains need them to warn anyone near by that they are coming. Don't try to compare.
