Can I store this in my car, or will the heat make it go bad. What is the shelf life? Thanks!

I would not recommend it. I had a guy when I was in the police academy who's can exploded in his patrol car. Needless to say, clean up was fun.

The can states not to expose to heat or store above 120 degrees Fahrenheit. The can also has and expiration date on it. My can was about six years from purchased date. It also states do not use after expiration date.

Don't know the shelf life. You might want to ask the manufacturer. I kept it refrigerated after I opened it.

I store mine in the freezer... I really don't know how much shelf life it has... I tend to use it up quickly...

I find better performance when stored at a steady room temp. Between 68 & 74 degrees Fahrenheit. Extreme cold or heat for long periods will lessen performance and longevity. Heat especially can cause leakage. (Don't leave them in your flashlight, in your car repeatedly for week after week in July and August).

it gets hot just by running it after a while, thats what the metal heat dispensers are for. But i think if you leave it all day in a car, where temperatures can reach 110 120 degrees, in direct light from the sun, it would do some damage to it, as much as any electronic device for that matter. But if you mean just leaving it in the glove box or another compartment, it should be fine, as long as it isnt getting hit directly by the sun, its pretty small and portable. If you plan to record and leave it there, you can cover it with something if thats the case.

The bottle says: "Store in a cool, dry place at 73 degrees F (23 Celsius) or below. Best if kept refrigerated."I definitely store it in the fridge! This product is great, but it is expensive, and I don't want to take any chances with its effectiveness.

Store it in the freezer. I have used it for 3 years and it performs great! No worries!

We have left this in the truck in mod hot temps (80s) for several weeks w/o a problem, but when it started getting into the 90s, we brought it inside. I don't trust it for a long period of time in extended heat.

The box says " store at room temperature (below 77* F), but do not refrigerate. Keep away from heat." It doesn't state shelf life but based on the left of time I've had i,t I'd agree with another responder and say 2 years.

I stored mine in the freezer for about a week before I used it, but only because I wasn't ready to use it right away. Before that it lived on my counter for a few days, but still worked awesome. Sorry this isn't a more straight forward answer!

Hi Dawn...just store it in a jar with a tight lid in a cool dark place. If too hot in your home place container in the fridge. You can take it out when your home gets cooler again...you should be able to keep for up to a year. Hope this helps!

If stored in a cool, dry place (i.e. pantry or cabinet) it shouldn't spoil. While this powder has a slight odor (not a good odor or bad odor, per se....just a specific smell), there should not be a "burnt" smell to it. I buy the economy size and it keeps for well over 12 months. If you're concerned about bacteria or fungus, don't risk it and toss it out. (Perhaps it somehow got moisture in the container? Perhaps you store it in a cabinet that's close to your vent-a-hood??)

It's best to keep refrigerated to maintain its potency and efficacy. But I called the company and it can be shipped unrefrigerated for a short time but not during hot weather. Hope that helps.

Refrigerant doesn't go bad.Just keep it in a cool ,dry place so the cans don't rust or explode and you can keep them for years.I always stock up when I find a good deal.Been a refrigeration Tech for 20 years.

4 Years is the shelf life. It is unaffected by opening it and using some. If it takes you 4 years to use this product, you clearly do not go outside enough. Some people use it as a back up and I would suggest using it in that last year and replacing it.

I left it in my car (I live in florida) and it was at least 105°. A week later, I used to put out an engine fire. I think it depends on the duration.
