I know!

Just looking at the ESS fire systems. We discussed them on anohter thread. And I discussed them with a tech inspector. I need to see how their metric measuring converts to #s. A phone call or two is in order. Their largest bottle is compact. I could fit 2 or 3 of their smaller ones and never know they are there.

Yes I know but these bottles are listed in Metric. I also realize you folks don't really know me from Adam so there will be lots of questions, suggestions and good discussion.  I don't know the details yet on whether that is (ESS's) bottle size or amount of supresssant, and yes they are able to be SFI certified.  A call will be made to someone with the Orange hat on every move we make.

Here is a thread about the ESS, nothing real concise here except for Glens advice  :cheers:

TMAN, work with Joe Timney as his product is used by many and I don't know about ESS and availibility for refills or replacements when at the salt or other venues. In the event one got set off (accidently) you would want to find a replacement that is common to the racers if you needed to borrow one. (Planning ahead)

Joe is one I planned to talk to. I tried to catch him at Speedweek but he was out on the course and his pits empty when I tried to find him. Common thing on Sat afternoon!

Thanks Wayno, I went out back in the "storage" Yard and cut some lengths of PVC the same size as a few of the fire bottles. Looks like we have more room than I thought. Glen, thanks for a great phone conversation! I take what you say serious.
