Ok guys. I get it. All i know is that the info that i was given almost 20 years ago. We had to take our Halon systems out and chang them to another system in 6 facilities at a cost of $10000.
This is 20 year-old info. If there is new more accurate info out there i am more than willing to accept that.

It is one of the most efficient fire suppression systems around except for the fact the chemical reaction with fire creates a fatal poisonous gas. I don't think i would use it in my aircraft.

DJ was kind enough to point out that the Halon extinguisher I advised to order was dry powder, not Halon, so I could cancel the order. Halon extinguishers are an order of magnitude more expensive than unit I was looking at on Amazon. I should have known.
