There is a another long thread on the merits of using one. They are rather expensive for a 50 second burst.

The ones I saw lasted for 50 seconds, or you could also get those that lasted 100 seconds.
They aren't cheap though ( around £75 or £65 if you bought them at the show).

My mistake. Finger trouble. They seem a bit cheaper Online at £59.99, but then you have postage cost so seems price at show was not a special price? Did you buy one?
I didn't but think it may be a worthwhile investment - light and easy to use/ store, and with no maintenance required and no residue left behind ( a big plus in a caravan/motorhome).
I just watched a video of a guy racing in a Mustang in the US and he used one when his car caught fire underneath at the back .
I've also noted that you can also now buy fire extinguishers that cover all classes of fire, including lithium battery fires, for circa £36 for a 2 litre one weighing just under 4kg.

We have the water mist extinguisher which is supposed to be effective against most fires including electrical. Hope never to test it. LOL!
Testing on fires..........something we all hope we never have to do that's for sure.We have the water mist extinguisher which is supposed to be effective against most fires including electrical. Hope never to test it. LOL!
Having looked at them for a while I ended up purchasing one for £65 from the NEC. Looks a useful bit of kit and keeps the weight down (compared to an extinguisher). Hopefully I never have to use it!!
Seriously over-priced! Better off getting fire extinguisher suitable for all fires.
