Has anybody purchased one? The ad says there have been a number sold. Also says conforms to EN3.

Certainly can't comply with EN3 - lot of the labels are the wrong colour - and I've never seen a CO₂ extinguisher in such a lightweight body. I'd steer well away from that lot!

Looks made up on photoshop, I doubt these are the actual extinguishers, but would worry that the actual ones aren't much better!
