Question Safety equipment for DE

I need a fire extinguisher and extinguisher mount for a couple of the upcoming DE events I'm hoping to get in. Who has the best price on this stuff?

i've found halon and halatron fire extinguishers various places. is the halon that much better to justify the price difference? i should get an a-b-c enxtinguisher,correct?

Back away from the A-B-C. If you manage to have even a small fire and you use this, you will regret it. Halon is worth the expense.

Halon, Halotron or AFFF. They are all effective from what I understand and you can clean up the mess pretty easily.

Anybody know if the extra expense for Halon over Halotron is worth it? Isn't Halotron similar but less damaging to the environment?
