A bit OT as it's not DIY but does anyone know approximately how much it
costs to refill a 5kg CO2 extinguisher?

I found an empty one the other day in good condition. I don't really
need a CO2 extinguisher but the magppie in me hates to see it going to
waste. ;-)

Check the date on top of the cyclinder, before you fill it.



Definitely - you'll be lucky to find anyone who'll fill it if it's out of
test (out of date). And getting it retested costs more than the Chinese
extinguishers that are all over the place now.
