Re: Soi Fire Extinguishers
But still no indication of why, or who can use them

Re: Soi Fire Extinguishers
Interesting, only just noticed the blue label. Fairly messy to clean up dry powder, though quite effective for most fires. I think BCF/ Halon was being slowly phased out because of the CFC issue. Perhaps you can call the number on the front and ask them?

Re: Soi Fire Extinguishers
I would think the boxes can just be opened via that latch, and used by anyone if a fire in the vicinity. I also think it's probably a small scale skimming exercise, similar to the larger version skimming exercise with the decorative street lights in Samut Prakan and elsewhere.

Re: Soi Fire Extinguishers
Not sure what "skimming" is? With all the construction going on, railways, roads, Condos, house's, etc. there may be areas that do not yet have sufficient water infrastructure to instal mains water fire hydrants. The fire brigade, via the Tessaban, may be putting them around as a stop gap.

Skimming - sounds like someone taking their cream off the top - or more succinctly, taking their cut out of the pie!!

Re: Soi Fire Extinguishers
That wouldn't apply to my Soi. We've had plenty of working fire hydrants for years. At least they give the illusion of working every month when they test them.Nereus wrote: ↑Fri Jan 19, 2024 4:23 pm Not sure what "skimming" is?

Re: Soi Fire Extinguishers
It would probably be one up on the Trumpton Fire Brigade with the Thai equivalents of Pugh, Pugh, Barney McGrew, Cuthbert, Dibble, and Grubb!!
Re: Soi Fire Extinguishers
At the fire station in Hua Hin there used to be a Honda Wave with two fire extinguishers on the back but I haven't seen it for a while!Dannie Boy wrote: ↑Fri Jan 19, 2024 10:10 pm It would probably be one up on the Trumpton Fire Brigade with the Thai equivalents of Pugh, Pugh, Barney McGrew, Cuthbert, Dibble, and Grubb!!
Re: Soi Fire Extinguishers
I'm surprised the Trumpton Fire Brigade hasn't been woven into the 2024 presidential election although I guess it's exclusively English.
Re: Soi Fire Extinguishers
I beleive that was an official "first responder" fire fighting appliance to get around traffic jams. Not seen one in Hua Hin, but in Bangkok there was a similar first aid motor cycle setup.STEVE G wrote: ↑Fri Jan 19, 2024 10:25 pmAt the fire station in Hua Hin there used to be a Honda Wave with two fire extinguishers on the back but I haven't seen it for a while!Dannie Boy wrote: ↑Fri Jan 19, 2024 10:10 pm It would probably be one up on the Trumpton Fire Brigade with the Thai equivalents of Pugh, Pugh, Barney McGrew, Cuthbert, Dibble, and Grubb!!

Re: Soi Fire Extinguishers
Judging by the look of this one near the entrance to the beach, it's not a new idea!

Translates as 'Firefighting for the people', supported by........ where's the rest of it Steve? The 'supported by' may have given us a clue
You are turning into a fire extinguisher sleuth.
