Revolutionizing the simplicity of flame extinguishers is the 'Twist' by Rob Shudra that is designed so that first timers require no education or prep on how to use the device. This is ideal in a situation that involves a fire, allowing virtually anyone to successfully use the device to combat the flames.
The 'Twist' is a modern adaptation of a conventional extinguisher with a much more basic frame. The handle is fitted with a portable handle to make the extinguisher easier to carry. Located within the handle is a switch system that allows both left and right handed consumers to twist open the device and properly use the extinguisher to its full potential. One hand supports the extinguisher while the second is used to control the accompanying hose for easy maneuvering.
