Does anybody know is it safe or illegal to carry these cylinders/cartridges in an enclosed vehicle? Do high temperatures effect these units? Do different states have different regulations?

Cheers

On the canister it states do not use in temperatures above 49 degrees C .. But they do have a pressure release valve built in so they would probably self discharge if they got too hot and pressure built up too high .So not a good idea in a sealed vehicle ... Don't know of any laws on them though ..
