Question:
I have a customer that runs an amusement show. (Carnaval, Road Show,ect) The fire marshal want him to have a local fire alarm panel in the "Maze" attraction. This is the one where you have to "feel" your way through a darkend maze. It is housed in a trailer portion of a tractor trailer truck. The fire marshal just wants a few smoke detectors activating a panel that will sound an audible alarm signal and turn on lights within the attraction so that people could find their way out in the event of a fire. I'm having a hard time finding an inexpensive single zone (or 2, 3 or 4 zone) fire panel with a 110vac aux relay and no digital communicator. There doesn't seem to be any reason to pay $300.00 or more for something so simple. Can anyone give me a name or model number of a simple fire panel? Does anyone make anything that simple anymore?

-try the Silent Knight 2224 or 4224 fire panels, they are probably in the price range you are looking for. I just installed a 2224 I beleive it was only $200.00 dealer cost. They are easy to setup, they are dipswitch programmable. Here is a link to the Silent Knight product page for more info http://www.silentknight.com/HTMLfiles/products/fire/conventionalfacp.htm/
