As stated previously prevention is the key. It is our responsibility to learn from mistakes and events that happen to us and those that are shared on here. That is why we are here afterall. Try to imagine worst case cenarios and make preperations so they do not happen. Contain your lipos to the best of your ability.

As far as the fire extinguisher is concerned the only fire extingusiher truly recommended for any kind of electrical equipment is CO2, because it does not leave any residue that will damage the electronics, and it works instantly if used properly. Proper usage is to knock the flames down first, and if at all possible disconnect the elestrical source before trying to put the fire out in order to avoid an electrical shock of any kind. Otherwise it will just keep right on re-igniting itself over and over again. IF CO2 is not available you can use ABC, PKP, or just about any other kind of extinguisher that is available to put the fire out, but it will more than likely ruin whatever was on fire.

Honestly I like the idea of having a fire blanket on hand as well as a CO2 extinguisher. Basic fire fighting says the whole idea of any kind of fire fighting is to seperate one of the eliments from the fire.
(FUEL/OXIGEN/HEAT) Once you can achieve that the fire will go out.

BRIANG I like your resolution the best. Throw your enemy on the fire, problem solved.
