How many fire extinguishers on-board?
Just got an additional auto\marine extinguisher for our fiver. I was wondering how many folks have multiple extinguishers inside? Do you guyz keep an extinguisher handy for an outside emergency? ...

One thing that I will say is that if you use the ABC extinguisher in the trailer, you can plan on purchasing all new electronics. The powder will destroy all electronics it comes in contact with. I use a sodium bicarbonate (BC rated) and pressurized water. After reading the posts here, I think that I will add the halon type in the refrigerator cabinet. An old time fire fighter told me that the first three minutes will make or break a fire. One thing that he also said was that once the fire was out, cool the area. Some materials will auto ignite if they are hot enough. Again depends on how comfortable you are with your equipment. One thing to do also is have your fire extinguisher inspected by a licensed company once a year.
