if your lowtech skill is high enough i dont see why it shouldnt function as multitool as well, zap the electronics and whoop. obviously since its light you should be able to move faster too, like with knife in css.
Perhaps as a third function it can make a small EMP area of effect around the player that would not only protect from grenades or small rockets and the like, but also protect from EMP blasts and disable turrets.

Hey, you all remember that blue thing from :IW trailers, the one he raised up with his hand. I think it was a prod now to think of it. Destruction followed.

Hmmm, You are correct!... The fire extinguisher seems pretty useless compared to the prod... Maybe if you could also use it to beat people up, and actually put people who are on fire out with it, it would be a little more even.

Now there's some practical ideas. Would be *loving* awesome to bash someone over the head with fire extinguisher.

Instead of actually setting them on fire more, along with yourself.

A Company that Makes Everything
Its a "Backronym" apparently.
The company name is ironic since the word acme is derived from Greek (????; English transliteration: acm?) meaning the peak, zenith or prime, and products from the fictional Acme Corporation are both generic and tend to fail.
