    First Facility: 17-19, St. Stephens Road, Quasar Elite Norwich, Norwich UK, Opened September 15, 2004

    Equipment Overview: As quoted from the Quasar Elite website, “There are four areas of the equipment, the Packs (made up of a vest and a phaser), Network Units (Energizers, Bases, and Mines), the control computer, and the Charging System.”

    Quasar Elite bears some similarities to the older Q-Zar equipment, however the phasers and vests have undergone a thorough redesign. A partnership between Quasar Elite and Meno Electronics (which manufactured Q-2000) began in December of 2016 for Meno Electronics to provide support and service for Quasar Elite operator sites.

    Historical Synopsis: Quasar Elite began as a research and development effort in 2001 to modernize and update the Quasar UK equipment design (following the decline of Q-Zar in the USA in the mid 1990s, Q-Zar and Quasar manufacturing and distribution was taken over by Quasar UK). Quasar Elite launched in 2005 at Leisure Industry Week 2005 following two years of trials at Quasar locations.
