Fire Extinction Ball is truly a major technological breakthrough, which will rapidly become established as an industry standard in the fire protection market due to the compelling benefits it offers
The problem of the old type of fire extinguishers
Generally, old types contain heavy weight which if the user need to get close to incident point with proximity of about 1.5 meter or 6 feet to extinguish fire, it is often not safe for the user because of their heavy weights. Moreover, in the event of fire, in order to effectively extinguish the fire, the user has to aim the base of the fire. It becomes a problem if the fire escalates and spread very rapidly, this might endanger the life of the user
