Dual Train Horn for Makita® 18v Battery

Dual Train Horn Compatible with Makita® 18V Batteries

Meet the Dual Train Horn Drill by BossHorn — a fully self-contained, handheld horn system built from a brand-new, genuine Makita® drill body (never refurbished, never a replica shell). Slide in your existing Makita® 18V battery, squeeze the trigger, and you'll instantly produce a thunderous 150 dB train horn blast. No separate compressor unit to haul around, no extra tools to buy — everything you need ships in one complete kit.

Everything Included in the Box

  • Genuine Makita® drill base (brand-new)
  • Onboard air compressor module
  • Two precision-engineered metal trumpets
  • Wireless remote control module
  • Mounting harness

Your Makita® 18V battery is the only thing you need to add. The moment it clicks in, this kit is ready to blast.

Performance Specs Worth Knowing

The twin metal trumpets work together to generate a deep, resonant train horn tone that reaches 150 dB — loud enough to cut through crowd noise, engine roar, or open-water wind. You can trigger it two ways: squeeze the drill's own trigger for hands-on control, or use the included wireless remote from up to 160 feet away. That remote range makes this horn exceptionally practical for events where you need to signal from a distance.

Why Two Trumpets?

A single trumpet produces volume; dual trumpets produce presence. The paired horn design creates the full, layered tone that mimics an actual locomotive horn — not a tinny buzzer, but a commanding, room-filling blast that gets instant attention every time.

Where This Horn Gets Put to Work

  • Game days & sporting events — Signal touchdowns, hype the stands, celebrate big moments.
  • Boating & marine use — A powerful, portable signal horn for on-the-water safety and fun.
  • Off-roading & camping — Audible alerts across wide-open terrain.
  • Graduations, conventions & rallies — Make announcements impossible to miss.
  • Emergency signaling — 150 dB output serves as a serious high-visibility alert.
  • Pranks & entertainment — Because sometimes the reaction is the whole point.

Solid Build, Fast Delivery

BossHorn assembles every unit from a new drill body, which means the structural integrity and internal components are held to the same standards as the tool it's built from. The all-metal trumpet construction handles outdoor conditions without corroding or losing tone quality. Orders are processed for same-day ship-out, so you won't be waiting long before your next event gets a whole lot louder.

Power it with your Makita® 18V battery. Point. Blast. Done — this is the Dual Train Horn Drill.

Where people use it

Built for real situations, not just the driveway

🛻

Truck & Off-Road

Mount in the bed or under the hood. Wake up the trail when you crest a hill.

Marine & Boat

Saltwater-rated trumpets and a battery you already use on the dock.

🌾

Farm & Ranch

Move livestock, signal across pastures, scare coyotes off the fence line.

🏈

Tailgates & Events

The crowd hears it. The neighbor hears it. The guy two streets over hears it.

Why it stands out

Seven reasons this isn't a toy

🔊

True 150 dB at the trumpet mouth

Measured at one meter — not at twenty meters with a press release.

🔧

Built on an actual drill chassis

Steel gear case, not a 3D-printed lookalike pretending to be one.

🔋

Runs on the batteries you own

Any compatible lithium pack drops in. No proprietary cells.

📡

Reliable RF remote, not Bluetooth

Sub-GHz key-fob signal punches through trucks, trailers, fences.

Hand-assembled, then sound-tested

Every unit gets a real-air blast on the bench before it ships.

🚚

Ships same day from the US

Order before 1 PM PT and it leaves the warehouse the same afternoon.

🛡️

Backed by a 1-year warranty

Covers the compressor, electronics, trumpets, and remote.

Engineering

Where the loud actually comes from

01

Quad-Trumpet Array

Four offset throats stack pressure waves so the peak SPL hits harder than a single horn.

02

Sealed Pump Head

Brushed-motor compressor with a sealed head — no air loss between blasts.

03

Precision Reed Tuning

Steel reeds tuned to a low diesel-locomotive note, not a dog-whistle squeak.

04

RF Pairing in 5 Seconds

Hold the trigger, click the fob — paired. Re-pair anytime if you add a second remote.

05

Thermal Cutoff

Compressor backs off automatically if you hold the trigger past the duty cycle.

06

Powder-Coat Finish

Three real color options: jet black, mirror chrome, or torque-wrench red.

Loudest thing I've ever fired in a parking lot

I was nervous it'd be a letdown. It is not a letdown. Remote works further than expected and the metal trumpets feel premium.

Bought it for my husband, ended up using it more

Two weeks later it lives in my truck. Super easy to mount and the packs we already had work perfectly.

Solid build, instructions could be clearer

Took a minute to figure out the remote pairing but the quick-start card actually helped. Loud as advertised.

Worth the upgrade over the basic kit

I had a cheaper version before. This one is heavier, louder, and the trumpets don't rattle. Would buy again.

FAQ

Common questions, straight answers

Will it work with my existing batteries?

Yes. Any compatible lithium-ion battery — 1.5Ah, 3Ah, 5Ah, 8Ah, 12Ah — clips straight in. We don't ship a battery unless you pick a kit option that includes one.

How long can I hold the trigger?

The horn will sound continuously until the battery runs out. There is a thermal cutoff that throttles the compressor if you hold past the duty cycle, which protects the pump on long blasts.

Is the 150 dB rating real or marketing?

Measured at one meter from the trumpet mouth, not at twenty meters with the wind helping. Real-world dB drops with distance, like every horn on the planet.

How far does the remote actually reach?

Up to 160 ft line-of-sight. Walls, vehicles, and metal between you and the horn will reduce range — but in open conditions, the entire parking lot is yours.

Can I mount it on a truck or boat?

Yes. The bracket fits standard roll bars, bed rails, under-hood mounts, and most marine handrails. Stainless hardware is included.

Is it street-legal?

Horn legality varies by state and use case. We sell it as an off-road, marine, ranch, and recreational accessory. Check your local codes before installing on a daily-driven vehicle.

How fast does it ship?

Same business day if you order before 1 PM Pacific. We ship from a US warehouse, so most orders land in 2–5 business days.

What if I just don't like it?

30 days, no questions, full refund. We even cover return shipping.
