Thanks.** A: This extinguisher is safe for use on electrical equipment. However, it doesn't have an F class rating so it's not safe to use on fires involving cooking oil. You could have a fire blanket on hand for cooking oil fires, and this extinguisher will then cover most of the other risks in the home. **Q: Will this tackle a fat fire?** A: This extinguisher does not have an F class rating, so it won't be effective to tackle a cooking oil (fat) fire. **Q: Where is the build date or expiry date please. I have one and need this information** A: At the top of the main body of the extinguisher, you will be able to find manufacturing data printed in 2 lines of black ink. The second line will begin with a group of 5 numbers (eg. 10523). These digits represent the day number (105) and year (23) that your extinguisher was manufactured. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great product and keeps us safe *by A***R on 24 January 2026* Easy to fit, feels durable, looks discrete, good value - we us eat in our motorhome, love it ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Does the job *by M***D on 4 February 2024* Does the job but it gets everywhere. My wood burning stove got out of hand with one of those compressed wooden bricks. The whole thing burned so hot and fast that the flue paint exploded and the metal in the flue and parts of the stove glowed white and went soft. This thing put it out in seconds... but every surface was covered in the dust despite it being aimed into the fire. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ An essential accessory for car or kitchen *by J***J on 9 August 2023* I bought one initially for the kitchen and then on delivery realised that it was the ideal size for carrying around in my car, in case of emergency - it is a standard requirement for taxi drivers etc. Just like an Insurance Policy it is something you buy and then hope that you never have to use it. Thankfully, I cannot comment on what it is like in action but it has the correct certification, a pressure gauge, and is very competitively priced. ## Frequently Bought Together - Multi Purpose Powder Fire Extinguisher – Ready to Use in Seconds – 1kg ABC Fire Extinguisher for Home & Kitchen Use – 5 Year Guarantee – Firechief Travel Extinguisher for Cars, Campervans & Caravans - Quick Release Home Extinguisher Fibreglass Fire Blanket --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/384909501-fap1](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/384909501-fap1) --- *Product available on Desertcart Great Britain* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-04-23*
