This Kidde is one that I found at the Post Exchange. The model no. is PKG
200. I threw out the packaging already, sorry.
It's a little sucker, the label advertised that it's just as strong as
bigger ones, whatever that means.
I think it's a new version, made to fit glove boxes and such.
I measured it -- 9 3/4 " x 2 3/4 ". It fits in my '73's glove box.
