Got 1kg FE inside my car. Got it from Qoo10, less than $30. Save yourself or others in the event of emergency.

Always a good to have item; thou it may not help totally if the flame got huge
But if your car caught fire and wait for fire engine to arrive, it is as good as seeing it burn to ash ba.
You will just feel helpless then.

Bought a small one and put inside my glove box.
Of course never hope to use it.

Fire extinguisher put in car, make sure you park away from the sun.. cheap materials if under hot sun, what more the hot air no where to escape, sekali the pressure rise and burst in your car. Lagi jialat. Just a theory though

Those looked like a can of hair spray? Or those used in building with full metal construction?
