    Remember that a home fire extinguisher is not for fighting anything but the most insignificant of fires. It's for temporarily slowing down the flames to give you and others in the house an escape route.

    Anyone tried 'FIREXO' extinguishers? said to be '7 in 1' ie suitable for all fire types. I found them on Amazon and Screwfix. Seem to have decent reviews. I think i will get one for my integral Garage/Workshop. I already have a regular extinguisher - unused - but figure one of these might be better, especially as it says it covers Lithium-Ion Batteries. When i look at how many Li batts i have in there - and then again, how many in cameras/ laptops in the house.... hmmmm
