Does anyone know about how many psi a propane and a fire extinguisher can handle?

It should be written on the cylinders. I think some fire extinguishers (co2) can hold 2500psi, i am not sure about the propane tank.

Whats with the minus spudbux?

propane tanks can hold about 18 bar, those smaller ones can hold more pressure....
besides the exact pressure is written somewhere on them

Thanks for the help guys, I haven't got a tank yet so I didn't know it was written on the tank itself just was checking about how much they could hold before i tried to find one

And for Novacastrian I have no idea why it says I have negative spud bux, but I don't really care I don't use them lol
