...aren't you the fire extinguisher guy? Saw this driving home from work today. ![[Linked Image]](https://texasfishingforum.com/forums/pics/userpics/2022/11/full-1625-158922-20221101_154544.jpg) When I first passed it, there was a huge cloud of retardant in the air. By the time I turned around to get a pic it had nearly expended its contents. I'm sure it fell from the dump truck and backhoe I just passed moments before.

There definitely needs to be some type of investigation.

The ABC powder when mixed with the proper amount of water makes a great fertilizer. When mixed with the wrong amount of water, it has a slight corrosive quality.

I can’t see the label but that might be a halon wheeled unit.

Yeah,yeah I’m from Ky and can’t read or write. Ha ha. I get it. But after 3rd time of reading your post, did you pass them going backwards?
I prefer peace.But if trouble must come let it come in my time. So that my children may live in peace

The other fire extinguisher guy here ,Now retired . Man if that wheel unit was still around with that much Halon it would be worth some serious bucks lol.
Never forget the 1st time my neighbor saw me spraying down my garden with a 10lb. ABC extinguisher . After my tomatoes plants grew he wanted some !
Ya'll have fun out there and stay safe. Gave my company to my daughter and son n law who worked for me for 18 years . Moved to the lake house and loving life.
May your wiener schnitzel always stay above your lederhosein.

I get calls all the time from companies wanting to buy halon. I didn't realize it was so scarce. I read once that the US Navy has about a 1000 year supply of it. Enjoy retirement.
