    Nice.

    I've already sent them an e-mail, but the more the merrier.

    Honestly, if you look at the roll bar mount, it would be super east to make your own. It's just two of their plastic clips mounted to a bent metal plate and then attached to the roll bar with band clamps. I could probably make one with a Kydex mounting plate in about a half hour.

    my thoughts exacterly. I hope they start selling spare clips. The clips are probably a simple SKU industrial lego anwyay.

    The spare plastic clips are listed on the US website for $2 each. I ordered a second clip when I order the extinguisher (it comes with one clip) specifically so I can make my own mount. Also, if you look at the metal spring-clips that come on the seat mount, they appear to be standard broomstick clips that you could pick up at any hardware store.

    Interesting that the US extinguishers come in 50 and 100 second versions, but the UK ones come in 25 and 50 second versions. 50 seconds doesn't sound like a long time, but if you watch the Jay Leno video, you realize that 50 seconds is actually a really long discharge time. I'd be interested in getting a couple of the 25 second sticks for only $5 more than a single 50 second stick. They are small enough that you could mount 2 or 3 in your car and have one within easy reach no matter where you are.

    Exactly my thoughts. They are small/light enough to be able to carry multiple.

    Only concern, you cannot stop and re-aim once you start.

    I may wanna get some of those firesticks also, they seem super convenient and easy to store.

    But here is a picture of my setup. It is currently mounted to my rear cabin strut bar. It used to be mounted to my harddog hcdd bar.20190429_123405.jpg hope i attached the file right.

    I've done a cheeky install of a 50-second one on my turbo smurf:
