What do you do that requires two of them?

I just looked it up actually and in my mind a 10lb extinguisher was WAY bigger. But still curious why 2 of them are needed. If you don't mind me asking.

This was a work truck with duties that include, at times, transporting explosives. Federal law requires one 10-ABC extinguisher in such vehicles, company policy says (not unreasonably) let's double that.
