So I sent an email to H3R Performance on their HalGuard product concerning what we are talking about when trapped in your truck. Here is their response:
Thank you for your purchase.
Every extinguishing agent has strengths and weaknesses. “Halotron 1”, the agent used in HalGuard fire extinguishers is attractive for its clean agent properties and its effectiveness at extinguishing flammable liquid fires, while not conducting electricity. This is why it is used on aircraft, telecommunications facilities, etc. While Halotron 1 (unlike CO2) does not remove oxygen from the air (a common misconception), it IS important to ventilate the area after use.
Many feel that carbon monoxide and other combustion products created by a fire are far more of a health risk than risks associated with Halotron 1. However, if you are concerned about the ability to ventilate the area after a fire, then our MaxOut extinguisher may be a better choice.
