once the can of air is attached to the horn, how long until the air leaks down and the horn won't work?

It comes attached to the can already. It doesn't leak at all. I've had my horn for months and have used it a dozen or more times with life still left in it!

the horn came attached. I have had this device for a few months and it still works.

Any compressor will work for a limited time before the pressure is too low. But I would think that is too small to work for more than a minute or so. Others may have a different experience. If you have enough air to power it, this is the most fantastic purchase of a piece of precision equipment that I have ever made. Works extremely well. I would have expected it to be 3-4 times the price

Mine made a noise but it was do to air leaking in through one of the connections, once I tighten it and the air trapped got out it stopped.

To test whats not working properly, check polarity and connect straight to battery to test horn on its own, have heard of problems but have had none myself. Must run off of the relay provided and I made a direct connection to battery for the horn from the relay, the other side of the relay to the old horn wires. Did your old horn work?

The failure is probably caused by the cheap relay supplied with the horn. Buy a good one at the local auto parts. I had one housing come loose but the horn was mounted on a Harley Davidson engine. Too much vibration.

It is pretty instant because there are no air hoses between the compressor and the horn. As soon as the compressor starts to spin it is blowing air into the horn and it honks.

You will need a vehicle specific installation adapter. Horn will work after installation. This item is for installation on NON-airbag equipped vehicles

About 10 min. Just have a fan running I the romm while its running. And when the timer shuts off, the fan will help clear the air faster.

I installed mine under my front bumper and it worked great through a rough Missouri winter. It rusted pretty quick and probably wouldn't have made it another year. Don't count on this horn working for a long time. Hope this helps.

I have a small hole on the side of my oil cap, but I can not hear any air coming out during or after the machine is running... of course there is noise from the motor that would make it hard to hear a small leak.

Mine leaked air when I first bought it...I took it apart, polished the inside of the reservoir and replaced the O-rings...after that, it would hold air indefinitely...

Just press on the button. It says not to shake can but I got more uses when the horn sound started fading out

15-30 seconds. Just opening the plug on the end will deflate quickly but you can also turn the air pump on and set it to deflate and the motor will suck air out of the mattress. It deflates quickly enough by just opening the valve that I've never used the pump except to see how it worked.

Do you hear the piston making a "popping" sound or just a constant tone when you pull the trigger? Air does come out of the side of the unit during normal operation and it will making a consistent popping sound dependent on input PSI. I'd check for air pockets, just like with a normal grease gun I have to prime it before I get grease flow. Just bang this upside down against the rim of a plastic trash can dozen or so times and check periodically for the grease to start flowing. The tone of the piston will change once it's actually pushing grease too if it's popping really fast and nothing's coming out its just not primed enough. Hope this helps!

I have ben using an Air Zound horn on my bikes for the last twenty years. I've had one go bad after about twelve years. As far as dogs, that's why I have mine. It is about 98% effective. It shocks most dogs long enough for you to get out of their area.

On my horn I have this complete kit mounted out in the direct weather, even in pourin down rain the horn button works fine.!. Giddy-Up, Beaver

When the pump runs "dry" heat can build up and ruin both seals and the impeller. Now in saying that my pump has run dry for several hours and there has been no damage. I would not make a habit of that though. Prime the pump and close off the air leak and try it, chances are it will work.
