We would just like to express our absolute gratitude with the support of these upcoming projects we have found ourselves working on. The level of customer support within Acorn Fire is unmatched within the industry. A massive credit to Acorn are two staff members in particular Lyndsey and Jess who are always on hand to answer calls when we need emergency parts. Their knowledge within the industry are second to none and we are proud to have Acorn as our supplier and partner.

I would just like to point out how helpful Lauren has been. We have an issue where our office is next to a railway crossing and currently the crossing is closed for roadworks. This is causing an issue with deliveries. Lauren called me to discuss and has arranged for our delivery to be redirected. Customer service is very important and clearly displayed by Acorn and the whole team. We have used Acorn several times since setting up our account and nothing but praise.
 
Efficient, speedy, helpful, detailed, professional  are just a few words to describe your team.
 
I will continue to place our orders from Acorn. 
 
Regards 
Andrew

Just a quick note to say thanks for the advice on the replacement of the Mother board. We attended a week ago and all went smoothly, no problems since (touch wood!).

Good Morning Emma,

I must say you are the best.  Normally I do not receive such fast replies from overseas suppliers, and that too complete with courier charges.

Have a nice day.

Solo 461 Cordless Heat Detector Test Kit (Now Including High Capacity Battery Batons)

The industry’s most popular heat detector tester, the Solo 461 is a battery powered heat detector tester that connects to a Solo access pole allowing a maximum reach of 9 metres.  The Solo 461 uses patented technology to direct a focussed beam of heat directly towards the sensor.

Key Features:

  • Heat is directed straight at the detector sensor
  • Suits fixed temperature, rate-of-rise and combination detectors up to 194F / 90C
  • Endorsed by leading detector manufacturers
  • Sets 95% of all spot / point heat detector types into alarm within seconds
  • Tests detectors up to 9m with Solo universal access poles
  • No cables / cords - powered from battery baton within pole
  • Infra-red beam is broken by detector to activate heat generation
  • Microprocessor control maintains constant heat and airflow
  • Universal design suits widest range of detectors
  • Battery powered
  • Transparent test cup for clear view of detector LED
  • Goes into standby after 120 seconds of use for protection
  • Switches off completely after 5 minutes in standby
  • Supplied as standard with 1 battery baton (option to buy second baton in the drop-down box) and multi-voltage fast charger. Operates from 110/120, 220/240V AC Supply or 12V DC car Battery

The new SOLO770 Battery Baton is a higher capacity product (3000mAh). It allows greater efficiency both in the field and on site, as it gives more tests per battery, for the same charge time as before, but provided by the new SOLO727 Battery Charger.

The SOLO727 charger has also been improved and, while it provides the same functionality as before, it is now capable of enabling fast charging of the new, higher capacity battery batons from both mains power and in-vehicle outlets.

The Solo 461-001 Kit will include the following:

  • 1 x 460-001 Cordless Head Detector Tester
  • 1 x 770-001 Battery Batons (option to buy second baton in the drop-down box)
  • 1 x 727-001 240v Mains & Car Charger
