Saw this selling at Homefix at Rm188 for two bottles.
It says for class A and B fires so it's not for fire involving oils and fats like in a kitchen fire but the picture shows it been use in the kitchen. Leaves no messy residue.

Amazing thing is this is what it says -

"HYPREX contents are mainly of water ( 95%+ ) and our patented Nano plant extracts additive. The additive alters ordinary water's fundamental properties, breaks up the surface tension and the molecular binding forces to make it more "liquid " ( lower viscosity ).

HYPREX is ultra effective in putting out fire rapidly as it penetrates deeper, spread out wider into a thin sheet to cool burning surfaces faster."




Anyone tried or bought it? hmm.gif

How many is the contain? kg.

Seem expensive. Get the ordinary cheaper for higher contain. And the normal 1 can refill somemore.

Back to 18yrs ago, did brought similar like HYPREX outlook. Macam spray mosquito. But it is white powder.

The problem is, it got expired date. After few yrs, you got to throw away if didn't use. The pressure will drop and the contain no more effective.

Ya never think of that. Dunno can expire or not.
Size is like those mosquito spray but slightly bigger

Sure got expire 1. Cause most of the thing cannot hold gas pressure for long. Slowly will leak out.

With my experience with such can spray and expired short date, not worth to buy. Even expired, I still keep for 10yrs. Lastly try it out and the pressure is low. Throw it away.

Better get the refill type which you can refill back if pressure drop. Not expensive also the refill. And it have a gauge to check the pressure. Which the can type don't have.

Here, safety product is not cheap. You need to get something that last long. That most of the time don't use at all.

Yo, this weekend, got something like home expo. Maybe got sale on fire extinguisher. Regret last time didn't buy when they offer RM80. 2day ago, check at ACE MV, cost RM122.

CO2, and powder wipe different type of fires source. Have to know they type of fire source. Usually house are more on oil, and kitchen that are better with powder type.

If you have heavy electronic equipment, need to invest in fire suppression system smile.gif

This fire extinguisher cost US$15 and below in US. Here crazy price.

I suggest gov should give free tax and subsidies safety equipment. That encourage people to have safety device in their home. 

Safety equipment here is too expensive and out of reach for most of the people.

From my history record, the chance of using it is 0.00000001%.

I pay less like RM80 for 10yrs expired. That only cost me RM8/yrs sitting in my home. And I can refill it.

Rather those expensive short lifespan type.

Beware those give fire prevention talk.

They come and give advise. Than try to sell all this fire equipment for crazy price.

I shoot them when they said cheap and should get wan.

I told them the gov should give subsidy for such important thing to help all the people own it. And you guys sell it damn expensive. How an ordinary household afford it. Tell them how fire kill and must have this thing. At the sametime ripoff people with crazy price.

yup it was one of those fire prevention talk
