What's the LOUDEST Electric Horn?

I am looking for recommendations for the loudest electric horn out there. I would like it to have a low, deep tone. I dont care if the horn(s) are big or small.

I removed the air horns from my truck because I got tired of having to re-seat the diaphragms and burning up compressors. Maybe some horns that don't need air will work a little better for me.

Thanks for any suggestions you can offer.

Louder than the electric boat horns I'm seeing on E-Bay like this Twin Bell All SS Boat Marine Electric Horn Air Truck RV:eBay Motors (item 270426329961 end time Jul-20-09 21:00:07 PDT) that claim 125+ decibles?

Shoot, this claims 130 decibles, is real small and only $20 FIAMM Freeway Blaster 12V 130db Electric Horn Low Tone:eBay Motors (item 270426206550 end time Jul-20-09 15:45:05 PDT)

You can get these at Autozone for about $45 and they are pretty loud. Much louder than the stock horns. I've got one on my truck and it works well but it's not very "deep"

I have 3 on the van, the stock, one that I bought at the boat shop that looks much like the stock, and then the horns that one might think that there is air , but it is elect. between the three it gets up there...
When I figure out what size the video has to be to get posted I will work on getting some of that posted.

I have a Whelen siren unit in my truck, but I have the required permit. You can but just an "air-horn" unit from many places. You'll just have to mount a speaker for it. try SIRENNET.COM
