Solid rechargeable extinguisher for a backyard shop, easy to mount and ready when needed
I bought this for my shop for peace of mind. I have not had to use it, which is exactly how I want things to stay, but the quality and setup are both reassuring. Mounting to the wall was straightforward, the bracket lined up well, and once it was on the wall the canister seated securely. The gauge arrived in the green and has stayed there through a couple of cold snaps and warm afternoons.Pros:• It is rechargeable. In my area a recharge runs about twenty five to thirty dollars, so I would rather service a solid extinguisher than keep buying disposables.• It is a multipurpose dry chemical unit, so it covers the common shop risks like ordinary combustibles, flammable liquids, and live electrical equipment – perfect for my shop.• Build feels right for shop use. The pin and seal are cleanly installed, and the canister finish looks durable.How I set it up:• I mounted it near the exit (right next to the door) so I can move toward the door while pulling it down.• I wrote the purchase date on an inspection tag and hung it next to the bracket.• I put a calendar reminder on my phone to glance at the gauge monthly.• I gave it a light shake to keep the powder from packing, which is a good habit for dry chemical units. (someone gave me this advice)I did all those things so I don’t forget about it and it ends up failing when I would actually need it. Having it at the door makes sure I at least have to see it daily. The date on the unit lets me keep track of when it might need a recharge. The reminder (and the shake) will happen on the regular, ensure it will be ready if/when I need it.What stands out day to day• The gauge is easy to read at a glance.• The handle and pin feel smooth when I practice the pull aim squeeze sweep routine.• The size is manageable enough that anyone in the family can grab it quickly.Overall, this is exactly what I wanted for the shop. It mounted easily, looks and feels well made, and it is rechargeable so I am not throwing money at replacements. I hope it never leaves the bracket, but I am glad it is there. Five out of five stars and I would totally recommend this.

Very good!
My smaller one in the basement garage expired. I’m glad I went with this larger unit. It’s substantial and you never know when you might need it. I’m going to order 2 more for sensitive areas around the house. TY for providing a good product.

Good refillable extinguisher. Shrinkflation nerfs the mounting hardware since earlier purchase
A good ABC fire extinguisher. We purchased this because of the First Alert name and that our other FA extinguisher came with a proper mount which included a metal fastening band (see picture). The PRO5, instead, comes with a tiny L-shaped piece of stamped metal from which the extinguisher essentially dangles. More frustrating is the cheap plastic ring tossed in the box which you are DIY-tasked to tussle over the cylinder so the hose has something to clip to. Normally not a problem but the ring is just undersized enough to ensure I had to fight with trying to put is on for several minutes before giving up. My lesson learned is check and double check what is and isn’t included before ordering. Otherwise a fine extinguisher.

I’m not giving it four stars because I had to use it and it worked! 🙂 I’m giving it four stars for the great packaging, which is almost like origami. It’s the first time I see this. Thick cardboard bent in geometrical shapes to make sure the extinguisher doesn’t get damaged in transit. As for the fifth star, I will come back to modify my rating if I ever need to use it, and it works!!!
