Fire Extinguisher

One safety item I don’t want to miss in a car is a fire extinguisher. Unfortunately all the products I found in the regular stores are either way to big or crappy made and don’t look very reliable.
There are a few companies out there who produce well made extinguishers in the right size. I specially liked the products from H3R Performance and decided to go with the MX250R.* Their HalGuard product-line would be even better, but the high price tag turned me off.
The 2.5lb version I bought fits perfect right next to the sliding door and with the provided mounting bracket the fire extinguisher can be removed quickly. Hopefully we never have to use it though.

  Hey Henri,
  It is an ABC powder extinguisher as the CO2 are really expensive. I’m well aware what this powder does to a vehicle. It is really just the last option before we would loose our van to the flames in the middle of nowhere. I guess once you had a fire inside, you can not sleep in it because of the odour anymore anyway.
  The trip is going great. We enjoining our self in Mexico right now.
  Cheers
