Its looks all right as its a class a,b & c which cover all 3 classes its a bot small for a van on fire for 10 min but fine if it just set off. Now lets wait for all the exquirts to knock this.

quick question tho,

put yourself in this scenario

you turn round to see you van on fire right next to a gas bottle thats turned on,

are you really going to go stand by it with a little extinguisher to try to put it out?? lol
i know i wouldnt. i would get away from it lol
