Corn starch will work better than coffee creamer in this, as it's about the particle size and density of the powder these extinguishers were meant to use in the first place. Much safer to use a powder fuel than liquid as it won't continue burning if it lands on you. If the point is just to make big fire that's cool to look at without ending up in the burn ward, corn starch is the way to go.
I have done this and have some recomendations: 1) I adapted the nozzle to a standard quick disconnect for my air compressor. This has a multi purpose, the nozzle doesn't melt, you can fill without any other mods, and the cone affect is combated. 2) I omitted the lighter strapped to the side as all you have to do is wet the nozzle with gas and light. 3) Repeated use will result in break down of the seals due to chemical compatibility and eventually it will leak resulting in catastrophic failure, and I burnt half my hair off!
You may be able to replace the seals. I think its Niton seals are the kind you want. Or Nitrile? They make petroleum compatible seals anyway. It probably has somewhat generic o rings in there.
I love how you are showing your different attempts rather then just editing everything and putting in just the part that works. Its cool to see it all as a presses with trial and error. Awesome!
Fire departments have been known to take the yellow Monoammonium Phosphate ABC dry chemical powder and put it in plastic bags and drop them down chimneys that have burning creosote in them, and it would put out the chimney fire. They call them Chimney Bombs. Purple K fire retardant has become popular for this use as well. It's about 80% Potassium Bicarbonate, 12% Sodium Bicarbonate, some Mica, Fuller's Earth, Amorphous Silica, and Methyl Hydrogen Polysiloxane for making it hydrophobic. Important note, bicarbonate and phosphate retardants should never be mixed because they react with each other and it destroys their effectiveness.
Aikano9 Either it wouldn't do anything or, if it's already primed to fire (which would be a very bad idea), then it would worsen the fire already happening.
Aikano9 welp there might be so much fire that the person would panic and see a fire extinguisher hanging around and grabs it fast and shoot fire on it!!
Hey Nate! I just want to thank you for making this video! for my physics final we had to make something that demonstrated some of the laws of physics that we learned in the course and we had to make a 10 minute presentation explaining how it worked and I knew I wanted to make a flamethrower and this video helped me fine tune my project. I ended up getting a 98 on the project and I couldn't have done it without your help. Thank you so much! I love your videos and all the things you do.
I say remove the nozzle you added and keep the original cone shape. Spreading the fluid out will give it more surface area and allow it to light better.
GTKR - Teaching kids how to turn their family's fire extinguisher into an arson machine since 2017... ;) In all seriousness, this is awesome, love your vids
Growing up at a fire department will help he tell you dont worry. The "yellow powder" is only baking powder and you should probobly worry more about pouring the baking powder down your sink with water than breathing it in.
I'm a fire extinguisher technician. ABC powder is monoammonium phosphate, where BC powder is sodium bicarbonate aka baking powder. But usually there's additives in it, so it's not pure baking powder.
This is a novelty flamethrower. It sprays only for a couple of seconds. Maximum damage you can do is probably give someone a couple of third degree burns. If you really like arson, you should try out gasoline.
Chem Kid I’m pretty sure the liquid nitrogen would turn to gas and over pressurize the canister and make it explode. Not sure if that would happen, but if that theory is right, it’s a pretty bad idea.
Using gas instead can be dangerous as there is no backflow valve installed inside the extinguisher. Lighter fluid really seemed to do the trick. Great video.
A mixture of paraffin and Napthalene is what i heard was used but i have also heard of polystyrene soaked/ melted into petrol to jellify it helps it stick
I'm curious; What happens if you aim a flame thrower and some kind of cyro-spray (like maybe liquid nitrogen) directly at each other? I think the two streams hitting each other head on would be pretty cool to see!
That’s the most ironic thing I’ve ever seen

I say remove the nozzle you added and keep the original cone shape. Spreading the fluid out will give it more surface area and allow it to light better.
Except when the air pressure starts lowering and it begins spraying down and all over the fire extinguisher tank and yourself.
i agree it needs to be higher flow but not the stock nozzle
Very nice. I did build it and I did improve it by using Co2 as the gaz so that I can put diesel in to it. It works very well.
Use a pressure regulator or flow control on the nozzle so you can perfect the stream, also should make the use of your pressure more efficient!
