We all carry them, ( or we should). How many of us check them yearly to make sure they are ready to go when we need them? They need to be checked yearly to make sure the pressure is there, and IF you used it, they need to be refilled.

Part of my daily inspection ...

if i'm not mistaken , this is an OOS violation , and also need to be mounted .

have very little to do with safety , as this thing won't Extinguish more then a smart-car...

i once had a larger one mounted outside ... Dern thing was stolen in Calgary... (of all places...)

Once a year?

It should be done weekly if not daily as part of your pre-trip - safety equipment.

It is a requirement to have one.
