The Task Force Tips (TFT) BlitzFire is a compact, lightweight portable monitor designed for rapid deployment by a single firefighter, delivering up to 500 GPM (2000 L/min). It features a patent-pending safety shutoff system that stops water flow if the unit loses stability, and it allows for safe, high-volume fire suppression from advantageous angles, including low-attack and high-elevation options.

They had a mass issue in the fall, and I believe all engines now have one.
