Sometimes you need the stream setting, sure, but the spray and mist options exist for a reason.

No clue! I’m guessing the fact that it didn’t catch on suggests it’s impractical, at the very least.

It was less than effective. Perhaps situational.

In an intense fire this just made thing worse. Especially for the person wearing it. Plus supplying water to this was not ideal either. Especially as the water used here is water that couldn’t be pumped into the main hose.

This would make it so much worse. Water would just increase the heat transfer to the wearer.

Good home example, if you wet an oven mit and try picking up a hot pan with it, it will burn your fucking hand. If it was dry, it wouldn’t transfer the heat as fast.

1900s as in the decade.

Why post with so little detail for the date? It’s vaguely informative, sure. But it is the 1900’s, surely we haven’t lost this knowledge and need to date it like ancient egytian archeology.
