Re: [VAC] Fire Extinguisher

Ed,

I just returned from out of town so waited to reply to your post until I
could review my catalogs.  I found the catalog that I was thinking about
and it lists two nice looking chrome plated extinguishers.  The catalog
is the Fall 1999 Imparts Ltd catalog.  They reportedly have a web site
at http://www.imparts.com but I have not been able to access their site
for some reason.  Their telephone number is 800/325-9043.  This catalog
is announcing their 24th anniversary so presumably they are still in business.

The fire extinguishers are purple K extinguishers which is electrically
non-conductive so it works well on electrical fires and is more
effective against burning hydrocarbons like gasoline, oil and paint. 
The extinguishers are DOT steel cylinders with aluminum discharge valves
and are both UL listed and Coast Guard approved.  The first chrome model
is 2-1/2 pounds (3 inch diameter, 15 in height), p/n 25003, $62.95 while
the second is 5 pounds (4-1/2 inch diameter, 15-1/4 in height), p/n
25001, $79.95.

Let us know how you make out.

Tom
