Well, I bought a halotron, but it's too big, so it's not in the 911.

And, I have an extinguisher in my SHO, but that's not my P-car.

So, uh, no.

Yes, a 5 lb Halotron as Halon is illegal in Canada for environmental reasons.

5L chemical plumbed in and a 3 lb hand held. As stated above, Halon is illegal here.

Halon unless I'm in Canada. In Canada I use a six pack of Molson.

What the procedure? Do you shake 'em up & spray them on the fire or sit back drinkin' & watch it burn?

I always carry a dry chem.
