Looking to collect some info for a project im working on.
The Power Supply market has become pretty competitive over the last few years.
So out of all the Power Supplies (SNAC) out there, which one did you like the most?

Right now, my preference is the Honeywell Power Products HPFF12. Its a monster with 4 outputs of 3.0A

And any features you think would improve your installation of the SNAC and A/V devices? Or any feature you can think of…

I like the compactness and the simplicity of the Notifier FCPS-24 series – except get someone to fix the FWR issue on the NACs, not just on the FCPSs but also on the panels. It decreases the number of devices that can be installed on the circuit and has been known to fry Simplex signals.

Also, someone ought to re-examine the Wheelock Sync function… I discovered recently that the Fire-Lite MS-2, which has it built in, cannot sync an NS, an MIZ, and an LED Exceder. When hooked up to a Simplex 4005 through a Wheelock DSM, the circuit did sync properly, and selective silence worked perfectly.

Thanks. Just as FYI the FCPS-24 is just a Firelite supply.
Send me a PM about the details your seeing on the FWR issue. I can make sure the right people know about it.

For me, because my company ordered a whole truck load of them for a project, the Potter PSN-106. QuadraSync makes it really good for those retrofits where multiple strobes are used. Plus I like the look of the black cabinet.
