[Spridgets] Fire Extinguishers

OK, I know this has been covered before, but I have a new question.
The fire extinguisher in the Midget needs to be replaced. It is a 
1A-10BC and has lost its charge. The cost of a recharge is probably 
about what a new one would cost. While shopping around I found a new 
product at Costco. It is the First Alert Tundra. A two-pack was only 
$20.

It contains no ABC rating, but the package says to keep one in cars. It 
supposedly last longer than traditional extinguishers of similar size 
and it leaves no damaging residue. One downside is that it can freeze.

Any thoughts or opinions?

PS: I'm picking up a 1966 Midget parts car tomorrow. It has a 1098 and 
wires. Anyone need anything special? I'm in St. Louis.
