Re: Of Roll Cages, Fuel Bladders & Fire Systems

Comments pls re a fire system that would use an electrically activated nozzel vs pull or push operation...Actuation automatic via air bag type switch ( anyone have ideas re best mfg/ switch) with a push button wired in parallel that would allow manual activation if desired ( idea here that the elex push button used if carb fire or fuel pump fire detected and the automatic actuation by air bag switch if in accident)....Disch nozzels to carb base, swirl pot cavity and into both sponsoons ( if all that done to cockpit too???)...Any idea of capacity required ( would 10# total by sufficient)?....Pls advise thoughts....Tx Steve
