Red Knights for life!!
The moral of the story is! Traditional fire extinguishers only have a few seconds of capacity and require regular maintenance or replacement. The prudent individual would carry both the Traditional Extinguisher and the Element extinguisher. You can fit 3-4 element extinguishers in a glovebox…. If the traditional extinguisher isn’t enough or malfunctions, you have a secondary option.
Thanks for the demo Captain, I appreciate you taking the time to do it.
No thank you I think it’s a gimmick. It may put her out of fire. I don’t want to get that close to it. No thank you. Keep it. The price is too expensive for these things. Anyway, I could buy a 5 pound extinguisher that I can refill for the price of one of these. Besides that your demonstration damn near burn itself out by the time you got that thing lit in the wind too much of it away no thank you keep it
Dude that fire was basically out already. Those things are trash just watch some other non sponsored videos.
thanks for the demo, i will stick to regular fire extinguisher
I was set and spending the extra money and buying element fire extensions for my cars, but after watching TH-cam videos, they perform very disappointing. They’re easily blown by the wind and it looks like you have to get your arm into the fire to help put it out I’d rather be standing back a little further.
I feel like you need a holder to extend it's reach, neet idea but I don't know about thr application.
I would expect the forest service from a state _EXTREMELY_ prone to wildfires and _EXTREMELY_ critical and targeting of the 4x4 community to suggest drivers to use the better of the two options, not suggest the "sorta good enough" option
ya the regular extinguisher for me. fire was almost out.
The fuel was already mostly burned up when you start magically waving the stick over the fire .... I do not take this action seriously. It was good slapstick though.
The element is crap. Look how close you have to expose yourself too
Pathetic. 😞😞😞
So is this an official endorsement by the West Pierce Fire and Rescue? Or is that why he taped over his helmet insignia?
If you pay attention at the 3minute mark he states "this is in no way an endorsement". And where is a taped over insignia? Do you go through your entire life bouncing off walls or just on the internet?
Bro. His helmet shield is taped over… how dense are you? 😂
@@nytwns13 whatever that all means. Clearly a tool.
@@nytwns13 no it isnt. It says "West Pierce" on the top, his velcro area doesnt have an assigned unit since he wasnt assigned one at the time, and the bottom says "Captain". There is no tape.
@@dougfritts880you are soo mad. Maybe you should deploy an E50 to cool your nuts, son. 🤙🏻
Clearly surprised and disappointed that the element sux so had no ending
It seems like a useful method to put out a small fire. The problem is that it is not easy to activate it.
Hahahahahaha!!!!!!!! It didnt work.
If you lit about 4 of these at once they might be effective
Yeah.. this doesn't work
this has to be the biggest fraudulent video endorsement by a Captain no less, that fire was out of fuel by the time he tried to put it out.
So an extinguisher 4x the size is better
That E50's kind of poopy, while effective the dry chem extinguisher will kill anything electrical in the engine bay. I have a Halon extinguisher in my car that I was thinking about retiring. They're expensive, but I'd rather pay three times more for Halon, which works ten times better than both.
Also the traditional extinguisher needs annual servicing...the new one does not. Plus leaves no residue and lasts much longer.
It also does not put out fires.
@@SOLDOZER I don't know about that....
Really cool idea, only problem, they don't work to actually put out a fire. th-cam.com/video/dCaPUYKs5Zc/w-d-xo.html
I want to see more demonstrations. This is no more complicated with steps to deploy than a traditional fire extinguisher with the P.A.S.S. acronym. Yes these seem more portable however you still need to take it out of the box and look how close you need to get to the fire! That’s a safety hazard if I ever saw one. That’s a no from this humble individual. 👎🏼
Yeah no thanks 🙏 I’ll stick to traditional ones, wish they still made the co2 ones heh heh
If you are really a fire captain, you should be ashamed of yourself! That fire was already dying! Why would you promote a fire safety product that doesn't work? They must have paid you. smh

What the hell happened? Sounded like a gun shot went off and then the fire died down?
Garbage , if the flame kicks back at you then good luck
Imagine getting that close to a fire? lol
Thanks for that, the element extinguisher was pathetic
Hey lets try and put out this fire with a smoke bomb and wonder why everything burned to the ground
I think the Captain puts fires to sleep with his soporific voice.
Those things suck, such a scam. They release smoke to starve the fire of oxygen but it's far less superior than a conventional chemical or co2 extinguisher.
Also because it's a propellant charge they very frequently blow more air than retardant and fan the embers you're trying to put out
Hard Fail. It might serve better as a distress signaling smoke flare, as an extinguisher it is nearly useless.
I drive by this place all the time in Lakewood, so weird stumbling upon this test after seeing Element in a vinwiki video.
It's a NO vote for me, while it might burn longer, the engagement distance is far too close, nor is the volume of discharge nearly equivalent.
@oldgrunt5569 interesting
POS
Wow, that went over like a wet balloon soaked in gasoline..
It is better to have any suitable fire extinguisher than nothing. Giving its compact size and being maintenance free it would likely be much easier have with you in a car, truck and even motorcycle. Much better than the contents of your bladder.
That fire was already almost out, before you even approached it with that crap of a "fire extinguisher"!
I've seen other testing of this thing and the element is horrid in real-world applications. This was a horrible test! The fire was going out before the element did anything. Stay away from this thing!
Lol how is this even allowed to be called a fire extinguisher
Only benefit I see I throw the stick in the fire while the fire extinguisher does the work😂
Those element things just chuck m right in the fire they dont work otherwise 😂😂😂 maybe if they made it the size of a vola bottle 😂😂😂
The fire was almost out by the time you finally hit it with the stick 🤷 I've watched a lot of videos where the stick failed to make much difference to the fire. I would certainly recommend extended tests with those fire sticks, before recommending them.
There is only one downside to this project, This doesn’t work, at all.
What a trash review, these are not "fires" you would find in a real world situation that involved combustibles found in house fires etc. Its just a gas fire thats easily blown out. This is a terribly misleading video, this "fireman" should be ashamed
I can’t see how they can say this thing has a Class K rating with respect to how much heat a cooking media will hold even after extinguishment. If you don’t apply a wet chemical agent to blanket the hot oil, the vapors will just keep reflashing as demonstrated in a TH-cam video where a firefighter shows using a regular BC dry chemical extinguisher on a class K fire. This gas will just disperse and the fire will reflash after this is spent. I wouldn’t even rely on it in my home kitchen.
And yet it has the rating. Could it be maybe you just don't know as much as you think you do?
