    Ok, maybe the local fire dept can assist with the fire ext cylinder. If your fire ext has an ASA fitting like the paintball cyl they should be able to refil it for you. I have a 4kg co2 fire ext that i plan on changing the fitting to ASA.

    Sweet, and its close the the home as well. And I have both co2 cans with me at the moment. Do you perhaps know to what pressure they fill it, as PnP did only 800 psi the last time on my one ISTA.

    @Krefie , jip, I was there on Sunday and spoke to a gentleman by the name of Jacques. He did mention though that they have a rep that collects the bottles on Thursdays and returns them full the following day.

    @fhmarais, I have no idea sorry bud.

    I know pet a pond does refills too, but only on ISTA systems.

    Ya, thought of taking the empties there this afternoon on my way home. Just thought if there was a cheaper solution it would be way better
