[6pack] Fire Extinguishers

[W. W. Moine]

   Summit is way over priced on that item.. you should be able to find it
   other places for half of that.

Bill;

No question halon fire extinguishers are the best.... but the HalGuard HG250C
costs $157.95 at Summit Racing! So that's a bit different than just
"spending a little more." How about 10x more? Of course, I could
simply bite the bullet, hope I never need it, and chalk it up to relatively
'cheap' insurance.....

Thanks,

Dave

Just my 2 cents

I think the question you should also ask yourself is do you want to clean up
all that powder or would you rather spend a little more and get clean agent
like Halguard http://www.h3rperformance.com/halguard_products.htm

Are you aware that most of the powder in the dry powder extinguishers is highly
corrosive and will cause damage if not promptly cleaned from metal surfaces?

I personally want to minimize the mess from any fire and carry the 2.5 lb
Halguard right behind the seat.  They don't cost as much as you think.
