    Replaced the kitchen fire extinguisher through the Kidde recall, they sent an auto/boat one. It sure would look good in my truck, points for matching colors...

    2.5# pounds of BC chemical is like spraying Binaca on a car fire. It really ain't going to do much

    Short side is front long is rear. As measured from the center bolt that holds the leaf pack together. Should be pretty obvious which side is the short end and which is the long just by eyeballing it.

    Per DOT regulations all commercial vehicles must have a properly rated ABC fire extinguisher. In other words it should at least try to put out all kinds of fires.

    If there is an arrow, it points forwards. The plus just means it’s slightly above spec height wise.
