I got tired of mine falling off and threw it away.

 

i looked at mine again today and it was just hanging, so i glued it with some spray adhesive ...... we will see how long it stays

 

DC, I'd like to address one thing, and if you don't mind, I may repost this thread in another as a PSA. When we carry a dry chemical fire extinguisher in our vehicles for a prolonged time, the powder will compact in the bottom of the extinguisher. It's quite simply due to the bumps and bangs it receives as we drive. It's widely recommended that once every couple months or so you remove the extinguisher from it's mount, turn it upside down and rap the sides sharply with a rubber hammer. Remember folks, a rubber hammer, not a dead blow hammer, they're different and in this case, not interchangeable. You should, if successful, be able to feel the powder shifting as you turn the extinguisher right side up and upside down.

 

thanks for the info, i'll ck mine before i go to az tomorrow

I thought that was the case at first, but it seems that all of the propellant had seeped out over time! Not an ounce of CO2 pressure to even puff the dry powder once! There was not a pressure gauge on the bottle, so I never knew.
It is probably a good idea to agitate the extinguisher every now and then. I think I will go with an all CO2 replacement - one with a pressure gauge.

 

Great info I think I might get one as don't have anything in mine.

 

mine would fall off the same as yours so i drilled a couple holes and zip tied it in place. it has not moved one time and still does its job.

 

The same thing applies for the one in our boats as well .
