Hmm, a golden-colored extinguisher filled with water... Sounds like someone's trying to make a fancy version of the standard red one. I'll stick with the classic model, thanks.

Wait, so it's not good for Class D fires? That's a little unexpected. I thought it could handle pretty much any type of fire.

Definitely shouldn't use this on electrical or grease fires. Wouldn't want to be the one who tries that and ends up with a bigger mess!

Using water and pressure to put out fires - that makes sense. But I'm not sure about the fire class designation.

I think B and D are correct because APW extinguishers are specifically designed for certain types of fires.
