It did have a sounder so I will get this one. Thanks for your help.

I found this. Does this sound right. The 4WTA-B is a 4-wire, photoelectric i3 smoke detector with thermal sensor and built-in sounder.

I need to replace two Detection Systems DS200HD 4 wire smoke detectors. Does anyone have any recommendations? Thanks

Been good for me so far, 2 months, one false alarm, police called, pretty quick.

Thanks Steve, Look like ASI has what I need. The 3/4 to 3/8 reducer was the missing link.

Ditto, they're a real nail splitter. If you stick the lever of one into the hole of another and pry up it works fine. Also it stings to have one of the levers snap shut against your finger. Jack

There is a local contact here for these so I ordered a box of each. The really nice thing about these is you can strip and cover one wire at a time and its the only one exposed. I never turn the power off so this is a real plus. ;) Any arcing is inside, nice. Jack
