Appreciate the list. I've been planning to check on it.

Other than 1 Plastic Mini for the Kitchen (not on the list, luckily), all mine are Metal.

I have about 8 or 9 of them.

When I was a kid, I was always playing with fire. Something that you just don't see today.

Luckily I never got into any problems with it, except the day I was burning some ants next to the house with some gasoline. Had the can too close and it caught fire, and fell over. Thought quick to cover it and threw an old rug over it. The rug soaked up the gas and it caught fire!! Scared the heck out of me, but it soon burnt out. Only a 1-Gallon can though.

Read this.

Click the link to Kiddee and check the list. You will need Mod #, Serial#, color, Maybe date code. I called the telephone number and got immediate response. Both the ones in my boat, the one in the camper, 3 in the house all on the list. They are sending me new ones and instructions on what to do with the old ones.

I've now gotten all 5 of my replacements. They all came with a return shipping label.

Just remove the new fire extinguisher.

Place the old one back in the inner box.

Place that back in the shipping carton and tape closed.

Add the new label.

Call Fed Ex for a pickup.

I give them credit they went about this the right way and made it easy for us.

Good video.

Fires are bad enough when the Extinguisher does work !!

Glad that all but one of mine are all Metal.

Although the replacements should all be fine now.

Just bought another one this week.
