The Halon ones are getting a bit more expensive and harder to find, but I bought a couple of them (and a bunch of other stuff) from OG Racing - www.ogracing.com.

No affiliation, just a happy customer.

I bought one from the fire extinguisher
company that services the extinguishers at our company. They had halon for $75, 2 1/2 lb . It might be worth a shot if you see the phone number on an extinguisher where you work or in the area, give them a try!
If not, OG is the place.

Bought my Halon from NorthStar Motorsports (they're in Pano and Excellence). About $125 if I remember. May not be cheapest, but I buy a number of goodies there.

Usual disclaimer, just a happy customer.

I've done biz with Northstar as well as OG. Both seem to be class acts in my experience. YMMV.

BTW, I recently stumbled across a 10lb Halon extinguisher, in perfect condition, that the previous tenant abandoned in my office space (in the computer room area). I figure it's worth $300+...if you could even buy one that size anymore... Score!

Since you are getting the mount from Brey Krause( which is a great company with quality stuff)why not get the extinguisher from them or ask Dodge Wipple,the owner of B-K where he gets them.

I don't believe that BK sells direct, you have to go through one of their distributors.
