Comparing Ougist Models
Ougist offers three tailored options to match your needs. The 2.5lb Red model excels in kitchens, garages, trucks, cars, and boats with its compact size and professional safety grade—perfect for spot protection. The FF1KG 2.5lb variant mirrors this with a precise 1-A:10-B:C rating and quick-release handle, certified specifically for kitchen, car, and boat use.
For more capacity, the FF2KG 5lb model steps up with a 2-A:10-B:C rating, ideal for offices, larger homes, or vehicles prone to bigger fires like grease or electrical incidents. It shares the easy-grip handle but provides longer discharge time.

| FF1KG | 2.5lb | 1-A:10-B:C | Kitchen, Car, Boat |
