Garth, I agree with you completely. However, as many groups may have purchased a similar extinguisher I'm issuing the warning. I'm going to the professional...
Another aspect is that most people know to use an extinguisher but have never done so. It may be worth a couple of re-charge payments to shoot off some and...
I don't mean to start anything, but aside from buying an extinguisher that isn't rechargeable I'm curious as to why you'd take a chemical extinguisher to camp....

I have never had a problem with Kidde or any other reputable fire extinguisher manufacturer honouring a problem with their product. When you purchase any fire...
Also check with local fire dept. I know some are willing to come out and train on fires and fire extinguishers then they will set up a fire in a large pan and...
