Just for interest for you folks who haven't used a CO2 extinguisher -- the
only way to make sure they stay full is to weigh them periodically.  And in
use, when they start to make a hollow roaring noise they're empty, time to
grab the next one.  And of course don't get your hand in the spray unless
you like dry, icy fingers.
