Stylish Fire Extinguisher

2007_09_24 home_hero_extinguisher.jpgWhen you think of home technology, a fire extinguisher is probably not the first thing that comes to mind. In fact the act of putting out a fire with an extinguisher probably hasn't changed much over time. Pull the safety pin, then the trigger and watch the white foam save your kitchen from burning down. The Home Hero extinguisher improves on this not by adding an LCD screen with step by step instructions but through design.

The cut out grip intuitively indicates where to grab while the thumb activated button and red safety pin are easy to use. Most importantly, this fire extinguisher actually looks good and would look right at home on the counter top of a modern kitchen.

No need to hide it under the kitchen sink. This alone will save you precious seconds should you be faced with the unfortunate circumstance of having to use it. Not yet available, but once it is, you will only be able to pick it up at the Home Depot.
