Review: Convenient Size to have On Hand - I've had this in my car for several years now, and although I've had no reason to use it yet, I like the convenience of having it there. In particular, I like the plastic mounting bracket, as it positively retains the extinguisher and allows me to mount it on the side wall of the cargo space of my car, out of the way but within easy access of the rear hatch. This is good not just for the sake of roadside use, but also for working in the rear of the car; it's a nice piece of mind to have there if I'm doing work with black powder (or any other flammable material), which I used to do a lot back when I first purchased this extinguisher. That said, the small size that makes it convenient for mounting and handling also means it has a small discharge. Don't buy this expecting it to be able to put out a proper engine fire or other serious automotive fire on its own; its simply not big enough for that. But if you just need something light and space efficient, that can put out a small fire or potentially fight off a larger one long enough to rescue someone, then this is pretty much perfect. ## Features - Durable metal head designed to meet demanding needs. - Corrosion resistant metal gauge easy-to-read color coded gauge provides accurate measurement. - Metal pull pin with safety seal to help prevent accidental discharge and discourage tampering. - Secure extinguisher mount, bracket and strap are included for secure placement of extinguisher. - Easy instructions with a chemical resistant and water proof label with 4-step instructions wont deteriorate. - First Alert has been the most trusted brand in home safety since launching the first residential smoke alarm in 1958 (Based on a First Alert Brand Trust Survey in February 2018) - Oem Equivalent Part Number: First Alert Fesa5 - Fit Type: Universal ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B000P0DPGQ | | Alarm | it's designed to be a compact and portable fire extinguisher specifically for automotive use. | | Brand | First Alert | | Colour | Red | | Country of Origin | USA | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 4,309 Reviews | | Enclosure Material | Plastic | | Global Trade Identification Number | 10029054741025 | | Item Dimensions D x W x H | 7.4D x 12.3W x 8.7H Centimeters | | Item Weight | 2.7 Pounds | | Manufacturer | First Alert | | Mfr Part Number | AUTO5 | | Model Number | AUTO5 | | Number of Items | 1 | | Product Dimensions | 7.4D x 12.3W x 8.7H Centimeters | | Product Style | Compact | | Style | Compact | | UPC | 029054741028 111012510002 | ## Product Details - **Alarm:** it's designed to be a compact and portable fire extinguisher specifically for automotive use. - **Brand:** First Alert - **Colour:** Red - **Global Trade Identification Number:** 10029054741025 - **Item Weight:** 1.23 kg - **Manufacturer:** First Alert - **Material:** Plastic - **Number of Items:** 1 - **Product Dimensions:** 7.4D x 12.3W x 8.7H Centimeters - **Style:** Compact ## Images ![First Alert Fire Extinguisher | Car Fire?Extinguisher, Red, AUTO5 - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51W-1pyiTQL.jpg) ![First Alert Fire Extinguisher | Car Fire?Extinguisher, Red, AUTO5 - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71hYcBU1i9L.jpg) ![First Alert Fire Extinguisher | Car Fire?Extinguisher, Red, AUTO5 - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/613-b+lwpxL.jpg) ![First Alert Fire Extinguisher | Car Fire?Extinguisher, Red, AUTO5 - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71o48+Taw4L.jpg) ![First Alert Fire Extinguisher | Car Fire?Extinguisher, Red, AUTO5 - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/617cA9TgmEL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: I know this is for cars, but what about it sitting in the hot sun or freezing cold inside the car? Does it need special protection?** A: Fire extinguishers are designed to fight fires, which are hot. What good would it do for an extinguisher to blow up when the temperature reaches nonlethal levels? You can bet that it gets a lot hotter inside a burning house than it does inside your car or truck on a sunny day. Look for one that displays the Underwriters Laboratory label (UL rated). The laboratory requires that extinguishers can be safely stored at minus-40 to plus-120 degrees, a standard that is sometimes posted on the extinguisher. But the laboratory also requires that extinguishers survive 175 degrees for seven days, which is not normally disclosed in product information. A quality, UL-listed extinguisher has a steel cylinder that is designed to withstand six times its normal pressure without bursting. **Q: How does the mounting system work? What do you mount it to in your car? Do you have to drill holes or modify the car in some way?** A: To mount securely you would have to drill holes. This one is actually fairly small so you might be able to secure with those double sided tape pieces with the tabs on that can be removed damage free. **Q: Does it have a pressure gauge?** A: Model AUTO5 does not have a pressure gauge. It has a pressure indicating stem (green in color) on the top of the head. If the stem is down (hidden) that indicates the pressure is low, possibly inoperable. If you look at pics 1 and 3, they show both sides of the head...ring-pin on one side, nothing on the other. More from First Alert: https://www.firstalert.com/product/auto-fire-extinguisher-ul-rated-5-bc-red/ **Q: how many pounds of chemicals inside?** A: The label states “2.43 lbs. + 2 oz.” of a bicarbonate. I don’t know why They express it in that fashion. Overall unit when filled is is 4 lbs. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Flame Tamer is Fire-tastic! *by J***N on 3 June 2024* The First Alert Fire Extinguisher is the ultimate backseat hero, earning a blazing 5-star rating!

I fired the thing off and the amount of foam/retardent that comes out is truly impressive, it will instantly fill a truck camper to the point of blinding you and saturate everything. All slide in truck camper owners i think should have this bolted to a wall somewhere. We also lit a fire about 2ft in diameter and it extinguished it in less than 2 seconds. Be aware, when you pull the plastic pin to arm it, you REALLY need to yank on that pin, dont be shy to use a lot of strength. ## Frequently Bought Together - FIRST ALERT AUTO5 Car Fire Extinguisher, FESA5, UL RATED 5-B:C, Red, 1-Pack - First Aid Only 91248 OSHA-Compliant First Aid Kit, All-Purpose 50-Person Emergency First Aid Kit for Business, Worksite, Home, and Car, 260 Pieces - WORKKOOL Safety Triangles DOT Approved, Standard Warning Triangles Enmergency Reflector, Emergency Triangles for Vehicles with Carry Case(3 Pack,Without Sand) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.cy/products/725205153-first-alert-fire-extinguisher-car-fire-extinguisher-red-auto5](https://www.desertcart.com.cy/products/725205153-first-alert-fire-extinguisher-car-fire-extinguisher-red-auto5) --- *Product available on Desertcart Cyprus* *Store origin: CY* *Last updated: 2026-06-04*
