My Fire Extinguisher is bad and was wonder if anyone had used one of these. They looks to store easier and dont expire

New to me, will check those out. If legit, that'll save some space in my tool box.

Pins fall out regular and they decompress. I figure you might had seen them on offshore rig. They are expensive, but since they dont expire might come out a head. Who knows. Got to be a better alternative though

No Sir. Use several other types of extinguishers & systems but not those, at least not yet. up

i bought a few of those but we never tested them. On you tube there's some good videos and some not so good videos. Probably just gonna depend on the type of fire and how large it is but i have my doubts its as good as they claim it to be.

I use bread ties to hold the pin in place on truck bed mounted fire extinguisher.

I would go with a known, proven, properly rated and sized fire extinguisher.


To be determined

I done that too. Ive had it in top of tool box and not mounted and thats probably 90% of the issue. Just has to be better product though

properly sized is kind of shot in the dark. When my truck was on fire it took a 20lb’er(oil feild service truck) and 300 plus qts of ice

I have fire extinguisher every where: house, container, SxS, All vehicles, flat bed trailer, tractors and most implements.

Here you go…I've put out hundreds of vehicle fires. No way I'm messing around with something like this. I'll stick to the traditional style.

By your comments you just sized what you need to carry.
