Totally new and totally awesome! All your players will be answering every question, and all at the same time! The multiple choice answers are displayed one at a time, so when you see the answer you think is right, you whack your buzzer! The quicker you are with a right answer, the more points you score. But choose a wrong answer, and you get blown up for that question earning zero points. Created by our friends at Crowd Control Games, details and instructional video are availble on their website using this link. Our specially labeled buzzers identify players by colors and symbols rather than by numbers or names. Four colors and six symbols are used to distinguish each buzzer for a total of 24 combinations. You can play with any number of buzzers up to a maximum of 24. Just specify your order quantiy in the shopping cart and we'll take care of shipping the colors and symbols needed for use with Crowd Trivia. And don't worry, you can still use your buzzers with any other game or quiz. The symbol markings just won't mean anything for those games. Save big with our price breaks at 12 or more, or 20 or more buzzers. Just enter the promo codes provided in the shopping cart to have the discount applied to your order total. Because these buzzers are so big and have a wireless range of 50ft., you can place them in the center of banquet or conference tables to be shared with teammates making it easy to include over 100 people in your Crowd Trivia quiz! Three AAA batteries are pre-installed so your buzzers are ready to go right out of the box. The power switch preserves power when stored between quizzes. Please specify your order quantity in the shopping cart. Up to 24 wireless buzzers can be used with the Crowd Trivia software. |
| Wireless USB Receiver is included with your order of 2 or more Crowd Trivia buzers. The wireless USB receiver communicates directly with your computer. One receiver handles up to the maximum 24 Crowd Trivia buzzers or 50 buzzers when using our free Easy Quiz software. It's plug and play, no pairing or syncing with the buzzers is required. | |
Need specific colors & symbols?
Click here to add special instructions to your order such as specific buzzer numbering. |
You don't normally need to select specific buzzer colors and symbols. Just order the quantity you need up to the Crowd Trivia maximum of 24. We'll take care of matching the internal buzzer numbers to the colors and symbols used by Crowd Trivia. However, if you are ordering fewer than 24 buzzers and wish to select specific color/symbol combinations, you can use this chart to determine what buzzer numbers to order. For example, if you want a blue heart and a green cross, you would need to order buzzer numbers 6 and 24. Without your special instructions, we would ship buzzer numbers 1 and 2 (red circle and blue circle). Use the Special Instructions link or our CONTACT page to submit your instructions after placing your order. NOTE: To get the most flexibility for using your buzzers with games other than Crowd Trivia, we recommend buzzer numbers 1-10 before making other specific selections. |

HERE'S HOW IT WORKS: |
|---|---|
 |
The Menu screen will appear when you first start the Affordable Buzzers Quiz Game.
|
 |
The Enter Player Names screen is where you type the name of each of your quiz players or teams and assign them a buzzer number. Whatever text you enter here will appear on the screen during game play to identify the player who was first to press their buzzer for any given question, that is, the first player to “buzz-in.” You may use actual names, nicknames, team names, etc. The number beside each name is the buzzer number assigned to that player. |
 |
The Test Buzzers screen is optional but it will give both you and your players assurance that each of their buzzers are registering with the computer and that all players are using the buzzer that matches their name on the Enter Player Names screen. As each player presses their buzzer, the computer will display their name on this screen and will also play the sound associated with that player (more on sounds later). Additional buzzer presses will continue to flash the player’s name and play their associated sound. |
 |
The Get Ready screen alerts the players to get ready for the next question. The player buzzers will not be activated until you press the Spacebar. The Buzzers On screen will then appear and all player buzzers will be activated. Penalty Alert: A unique 2-second penalty feature helps prevent aggressive players from dominating the game by pressing their buzzers too early or by holding their buzzer buttons down. Note: You may choose to activate the buzzers before or after the question is presented. Some quiz hosts prefer to give all players a chance to hear or see the entire question before allowing anyone to “buzz-in.” Others prefer to allow “buzz-in” at any time while the question is being presented. |
 |
When the Buzzers On! screen appears all player buzzers are active. The first player to press their buzzer while this screen is displayed will win the opportunity to answer the question.
Each player will have only one chance to answer each question. If their answer is incorrect, their buzzer will be disabled until the next question begins at the Get Ready screen. |
 |
The Names screen will display the name of the first player to press their buzzer (the first to “buzz-in”). The sound associated with their buzzer number is played at the same time. This is the player who may now attempt to answer the question. --The R key may be pressed for a R-ight answer, causing a victorious DING sound along with a screen showing a green check-mark (see below). --The W key may be pressed for a W-rong answer, causing the dreaded wrong-answer BUZZER sound along with an explosive BUZZ graphic (see below). --The Spacebar may be pressed to skip this question and return to the Get Ready screen where all buzzers will be reset and the next question may be presented. Player scores are not affected when the Spacebar is pressed. |
 |
The Right screen is displayed when the computer operator presses the letter R (R-ight answer) on the previous Names screen. This congratulatory screen will appear with a victorious DING sound.
The current “right answer” point value is added to the player’s score. All buzzers and keys are deactivated on this screen except for the Spacebar. Press the Spacebar to reset all the buzzers and return to the Get Ready screen where the next question may be presented. |
 |
The Wrong screen is displayed when the computer operator presses the letter W (W-rong answer) key on the previous Names screen. This dreaded BUZZ screen will appear along with a disqualifying “buzz” sound.
The current “wrong answer “point value is subtracted from the player’s score.
The buzzer for the player who provided the wrong answer will now be disabled, but any player who has not yet answered this question may still race to “buzz-in” while this screen is being displayed and attempt to answer the question.
As always, pressing the Spacebar skips any further “buzz-in” attempts and returns to the Get Ready screen where all player buzzers are reset and the next question may be presented. |
I received my buzzers in two days! They surpassed all my expectations! In comparison to the other buzzers I have purchased, the quality of construction is far superior. These feel solid, not like a toy! I wish I found your website sooner, it would have saved me alot of time and money.

What a concept: a product that works "out of the box" at a bargain price. Check out the competition — this is the most "affordable" option for game show buzzer systems. A definite recommend for quiz game presenters!
Doreen R., California
Just wanted to let you know we received our buzzers today, and they are awesome!
Monica C., Party Coordinator, Australia
The product arrived very quickly, worked like a dream and we were even able to add our own custom buzzer sounds to it. We're thrilled with our purchase. Thank you so much to all the guys at Affordable Buzzers for their patience, help and honesty.
Aidan L., Belfast, Northern Ireland
Great service, awesome turnaround!
Aaron P., Vice President of Operations
I presented my training with ten buzzers buzzing and loads of enthusiasm from the players — it was a great success! ...there was ZERO set up involved besides entering my players' names. What a joy not to have to call tech support or spend an hour to get assistance just to use a product.
Fremont, CA
The buzzers worked great. They are reliable and functioned as advertised. They were a great game show addition for a teenager birthday party.
Brian J., Tennessee
I'm not sure what I'm pleased with the most, the buzzers or the customer service. From my first special request for overnight delivery, I knew Affordable Buzzers believed in good old fashioned personalized customer service.

Big Daddy Buzzer Podium is the perfect freestanding platform for your Big Daddy buzzers. The 6lb weighted base keeps the podium in place while the unbreakable Lexan polymer top assures the durability required by even our most demanding customers for their professional venues. Your Big Daddy buzzers (not included with the podium) are held securely in place with a supplied, self-adhesive Velcro disc. When your buzzers are used on an ordinary table they remain fully seated on their rubber feet with no interference from the thin Velcro disc. To secure then to the podium, just press them down onto the top and the Velco discs will keep them in place with even the most aggressive players. Since the weighted base does not allow the podium to topple easily, in our durability tests we had to forcefully knock the podium over to a tiled concrete floor. The unbreakable Lexan top takes all the punishment while the buzzer pops free of the Velcro without suffering a scratch. Simpy stand the podium up, put the buzzer back in place and resume operations. |
|
Podium Top ONLY with mounting flange (includes one top only - photo shows both sides of the podium top). Attaches to your own microphone stand with 5/8"-27 female thread to fit most microphone stands. This top is the same Lexan polymer part described above in the description of our complete Big Daddy Buzzer Podium. Includes Lexan polymer top (with threaded mounting flange and Vecro "hook" disc installed), and matching Velcro "loop" disc with self-adhesive backing for you to affix to your Big Daddy buzzer. Big Daddy buzzer not included. |
