It's their Santa Ana store on Bristol Street. It's just a few blocks north of South Coast Plaza.

I attended what was a glorified sales demo today for a company that supplies specialised fire protection systems. We saw live fire demos of the system putting out a fire in a simulated hotel room and then a fire officer putting out a fuel fire with water. The system uses a 0.025mm water mist @ over 2000 psi and ends up using something like 10-30% of a normal deluge system - about 35l/min. We fit these system to our large power transformers, hence our interest.

No.1 How not to use the Water Mist lance, too close and created a fireball. This was HOT! The fire was a 1/2 44gal drum full of kero.

No.2 Further away puts the fire out in less than a minute.

Yes, in front of 15 people, the guys are instructors at the Fire and Rescue training facility:D. The one in the first pic had never used the lance before, the second guy had been assisting with the demos all week so knew how it worked. You can see him pulling the first guy back in the first shot. I gather from what was said they don't use these normally.

Wow....I'm a bit surprised they let somebody take a first stab at a new tool/technique in front of visitors.

A bit unusual I agree. I suppose the saving grace is that we didn't know him from a bar of soap and will never meet him again. The guys from Europe had a laugh about it when we got back up to the lecture room.
