Well after too many hours spent on amazon i have placed an order!

I learned that no one size fits all.

3A-40ABC Amerex for multiple locations in the house and barn.
2.5 LB Halotron for garage and car barn
2 Element sticks for taking with me when driving

Spent over a grand

I lost a house to a fire 10 yrs ago, not fun. 4 classic cars were hurt but not totaled, the house burned over the garage and burning joists. etc fell on them. Btw Hagerty came through like a champ.

I have had 4 under hood fires in my life and i think an Element stick would have been perfect for each. For one I extinguished with coffee and a fortunately located puddle!

I hope everyone reading this thread takes a minute to inventory and inspect their home/garage/car fire extinguishers. You never know what will happen and good, fresh extinguishers are cheap insurance. Your cars and loved ones are worth the effort and expense.
