Sup guys, I recently found a video on how to make a homemade fire extinguisher, here it is:

I made one with a bottle 2/3rds the size and it was extremely effective.
I am going to work on making it into a more long term solution, but this is still really cost effective, only costing about 50p to a pound for a small one.

Speaking from a professional point of view that is an absolute load of b*****ks and down right dangerous.
By professional I mean that I am a fully qualified BAFE trained fire extinguisher engineer, would you really trust that to put a fire out ? cos I know damn sure I wouldnt.
Just goes to show what carp you can find on the tinterweb.
Post reported for dangerous content.
I WOULD NOT ADVISE ANYONE TO TRY THIS AT HOME OR RELY ON IT IN THE EVENT OF A FIRE.You may click thanks if you found my advice useful0 -
I once put an engine bay fire out with two bottles of coke. Cap off, hand over the top, shake it up and blast.
Though I can assure you, it wasn't easy, I have no intention of ever doing it again, and my first choice would have been a fire extinguisher!Yes it's overwhelming, but what else can we do?
Get jobs in offices and wake up for the morning commute?0 -
