Having recently replaced the fuel lines in my '88 Westy got me to wondering about fire
extinguishers and the one that comes with the Westy. Wondering:
    How many still have the OEM unit?
    How many have had to use it on a fire in the van and did it still work?
    Anyone just decide to test it and see if it still worked?
A search of the archives turns up lots of stuff, but nothing too recent.

A disadvantage of the dry-chemical type seems to be cleanup and corrosion afterward.
I believe there is at least one company still selling halon extinguishers on-line, but
they are expensive. I think Larry Chase bought one.

There are also at least two new, small aerosol-type extinguishers, that claim longer
spray time, wider application and easier cleanup, and also claim to be approved
replacements for halon, good on class A and B fires. They cool the area and
encapsulate the fire.
One is Flame-Out from Summit Engineering, the other is the Tundra from First Alert.
Anyone have any real experience with them?

Thanks,
Jerry
