Good question, The powder makes a real mess of things.

Watched our neighbours house burn last Tuesday, she tried to put out an electrical fire with water. Before I went to bed that night I inspected all the fire extinguishers we have in our home and made sure everybody knew how to use them.

I work with a lady who did that at the company where I work. You have to wonder sometimes what they are thinking?

Halon is no longer used ....Data Centers use a new Clean Agent oxygen depleting gas...its called Inergen.Its much more environmentally friendly.I dont think its available in a portable extinguisher yet though. We also have an FM-200 system...same principles as Halon but friendly to the environment...if you find Halon it is recycles as it is no longer produced. Halon is an ozone depleting chemical. CO2 is an alternative too.
