I need a switch


OMG

Half a second?  One second?  How long is the hose that needs to be pressurized?  Seems like a dumb idea when you're trying to stop shit from happening in a split second.

I had a 4 horn set-up on my sandrail and I'd say it took no more than half second to hit full volume.  It's not the instant blast of a horn with a tank & valve, but the ramp-up is quick.  Most kits have a very short hose, and judging by the hose (looks like vinyl tubing) the horns aren't very high pressure.

 

The typical old school roof mounted truck air horns have a high pressure hose to the valve and the valve is directly attached to the horn.  Typical tank pressure is 120PSI.
