Refilling fire extinguishers
My Fury is very close to being ready to burst into flames again so I've started to look into refilling my (plumbed in) OMP fire extinguisher.
Demon Tweaks offer a refilling service but I was rather hoping to do it for less than the hundreds they'll charge me. Anyone on here know of any
companies that will refill for a realistic price?

I used a local company to refill, did the job, and put mew date on all for 20 quid.
So try a local extinguisher company, they may be able to help

Wha is the media? If its AFFF you should be able to get a replacement cylinder and the foam to go in it. Try the local fire extinguisher companies,
they might do it for beer money.
Kindest Regards,

FEV charge last March was £35.00 - for a "while you wait and watch" complete service, refill and certification as required by MSA. OK, no
carriage charges in my case. The extinguisher was unused, still in box and only 4 months out of date but I was shown that had it been needed in anger,
build up of crud meant it would have failed. Reassuring to have this all done by the guy that builds extinguishers from scratch for F1...
