Danny152 Posted September 4, 2016 Author Share Posted September 4, 2016 Adrian, It is the type that sits next to the driver. Thanks Danny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adrian Barrell Posted September 4, 2016 Share Posted September 4, 2016 Ok, that's not one of them btw, that one is a 2 1/2 lb as used in half tracks. You want the 4 lb type which have a flat bottom and are fatter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordon_M Posted September 4, 2016 Share Posted September 4, 2016 That image is pretty much the same as my 4lb US Kidde unit Adrian. I found one on e-bay US, with the original mounting bracket, for my T-36. I don't have a separate link to an image, but you can see it and the bracket, near the bottom of this thread; http://g503.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=48&t=256477 When you find one, there is a link somewhere on G503 to someone who has reproduced the Kidde decals too.

What sort of bracket would it have? Thanks Danny Edited September 4, 2016 by Danny152 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danny152 Posted September 5, 2016 Author Share Posted September 5, 2016 (edited) Gordon, Any idea about this one, it is 1945 dated. It seems abit bigger and as Adrian says it has a flatter bottom, I believe it is the last three digits 755 as mentioned above.

The only general point in the listing is that all the Kidde items listed are CO2 units, while powder, chemical, etc are all other manufacturers. Up to 7lbs weight seem to be available primarily as pistol grip units Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adrian Barrell Posted September 5, 2016 Share Posted September 5, 2016 (edited) The Kidde-Lux 4lb was a D37127, is 17" high, 4 1/2" diameter and weighs 16 3/4 lbs fully charged. There was also an equivalent made by C-O-Two which was much the same but used a more conventional squeeze grip and trigger.

Danny152 Posted September 5, 2016 Author Share Posted September 5, 2016 Gents, Thanks for your time and help, this type is 16lb when charged, it will do for a example as was only £30. I have emailed the kidde factory and see if they can help. I will keep you updated. Thanks Danny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
