Tundra fire extinguishers

Anyone have any experience with these? Are they just as safe as typical abc extinguishers?

It seems like a great addition for my fuel dump. It's about a fraction of the weight and more compact, but not sure yet if it's as effective. thanks

    "If it seems too good to be true, it probably is..."
    Okay, so it's using approximately the same materials as a 2BC extinguisher, but spraying them 4 times longer (and about half the quantity). It doesn't have an ABC rating, so it's hard to compare. Hmmm...

    If you're just having it for a portable thing, yeah, sounds nice, but if you're doing pro shows where a fire marshal is gonna be looking at your extinguishers, etc., then, no probably not. Because when it comes right down to it, safety equipment is the domain of fire suppression, and THEY say what's good and what isn't.
