Three points :

• What is in the can ie what is the fire suppressant?
• How would it be secure in the aircraft?
• In an aircraft context, how & where would you use it?

What chemical component does it use ?

 

In the video I see at least 2 examples of supposedly electrical fires that look more to me like flammible liquids.

You can't exactly stand outside and give it a squirt. Whatever it releases you're going to be breathing. Perhaps CO2 is the safest.

There is some homework for you; let us know what you find out.  If it does not affect electrical equipment like dry powder and foam does and if the air is safe for us them it should be suitable.  I could not find a data sheet only the video, I took the images while waiting for a car pint colour to be mixed on Boxing day.  

 

These are the brief details I read.

If you're unlucky enough for one of your many lithium battery devices to burst into flames you're unlikely to survive to fight the fire anyway.

 

 

 

This is rust on all untreated steel under the Hyundai iLoad dash. The corrosion is only evident since the lithium fire a few weeks back. There was no fire in this area so it has to be chemicals released in the battery explosion.

I thought it would be good anyway for fires on the ground, either taxying or startup. In flight shit hits the fan.

Hi Blueadventures,

 

I saw them on sale in Aldi yesterday, but everything I read about fires in enclosed cockpits says to use Halotron or Halocarbon - both replacements for Halon. They all caution against anything else such as powder, as you won't be able to see anything after expelling powder, or CO2 as it can corrode. But what my research has found is that even small Halotron or Halocarbon extinguishers cost a small fortune - at least $5-600, with others over $1K! So something tells me the Aldi/Autobahn jobbies above are NOT Halotron/Halocarbon-based!

 

As noted by others, probably good for use on the ground though 🙂

 

Cheers,

Neil
