The PINQY has been invented by Erik Crommelynck, a discreet tool for putting out the beginnings of a fire. At just 14 cm. tall, the bulbous fire extinguisher is targeted for home use, providing a far more compact, manageable fire safety tool that will quickly see off the beginnings of a house fire.
Its compactness makes the PINQY not just a nice gadget but also supports its lightweight and ease of use that makes fire extinguishing more accessible for children, elderly and less-abled people. Check out the PINQY demonstration videos where kids can be fire-fighters for one day.

Seems a little ironic... It looks like a grenade, yet it puts out fires.
"I put the fires out..."
"You made them WORSE!"
"Worse... or.. better?"
But yeah, the hand grenade thing was my first thought too.
