I looked at some old threads and there is nothing new since 2009, so yes, I used darn search :taunt:

Proof indeed that the volunteers that run the DE's for the schools may be well-intentioned but are not necessarily well-informed.

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

9 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

  • Planet-9: 1 discussions

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

0 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

POST 1Original post

I looked at some old threads and there is nothing new since 2009, so yes, I used darn search :taunt: Is there anything besides SpeedTactics bracket + 2.5lb halon extinguisher combo I can find reasonably priced somewhere? Seems like their combo is the only one not hitting $300 mark with shipping. Any special off-season deals out there?

POST 2Original post

Try rennline.com. They have bracket and fire extinguisher combos for about $250. I don't know how much shipping is, but their brackets are first rate.

POST 3Original post

Another well known manufacturer is Brey-Krause Brey-Krause Performance Driving Accessories for Porsche

POST 4Original post

is your club requiring mounted fire extinguisher to pass tech now?

POST 5Original post

NCR and NER share same DE rules and both require 2.5lb extinguisher to participate in DE. You get a pass on your 1st novice event, but after that you have to have it.

POST 6Original post

Rennline has a special price on their mount/extinguisher combos: Fire Extinguisher and Mount Package-Rennline, Inc. Priced from $181 with a dry chem extinguisher to $245 with a halon extinguisher. No financial interest, just a satisfied customer. See install article here: Fire Extinguisher Mount - Comparison with Other Mounts - Articles By the way, I have both a used SpeedTactics and Mantis Sport mount that I would be willing to sell - PM me if interested.

POST 7Original post

I wonder if I should just get this extinguisher from Ebay, as long as they are freshly charged with Halon. There are couple options for a bracket, including possibly making one out of a sheet of aluminum.

POST 8Original post

No kidding? Proof indeed that the volunteers that run the DE's for the schools may be well-intentioned but are not necessarily well-informed. -Duane

POST 9Original post

Exactly right. There is far more danger from a fire extinguisher coming out of the mount and causing a driver to lose control of his car than the vehicle catching on fire. I've been instructing since 1996 and seen zero cars with engine fires. None. Nada. Couple of times tall grass can burn a little after a spin-out and the hot cat makes the weeds smolder, but that's been it. And what student is going to have the presence of mind to spend time trying to get a fire extinguisher out of a well-secured mount if his car is in flames? Makes no sense - you get out of the car. On the east coast, we've always told our students that *IF* your car were to catch on fire (most unlikely), then drive to the nearest corner worker and get out of the car. On -board fire control systems make sense in race cars, hit a button and the nozzles douse the engine compartment, but goofin' around with an bracketed fire extinguisher in the cockpit really is just silly.
