Subject:      Holotron Fire Extinguishers Considered
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1"

Greetings List,
As November dawns, it's time for decisions re gear upgrades
for my coming winter's travels south of the border.  Yes!
Today, the search is on for a pair of hand held fire extinguishers
 to be mounted horizontally to driver's/passenger front seat bases.
Am considering Kidde Holotron extinguishers from West Marine.
( 5 lb, 15 1/4"  long x 4 1/4" diameter )
EPA/USCG approved  Holotron is an effective, legal alternative to
Halon for Class B & C--liquids, grease, & electrica.  Like Halon,
Holotron won't damage engine or wiring; 6 year warranty.
Cost:  $130 plus additional $6 for USCG approved metal bracket.
If interested, take a look at  www.westmarine.com
