never heard of these...wow...pretty dang cool.

It’s worth watching the Jay Leno’s Garage segment to get a better sense of how these work. I hadn’t heard of these either.

I have one of these in the netting in my driver door.

I will be adding one or two of these along with a H3R fire extinguisher.

Please explain.

I can’t speak for @Hawkeyes3312 ‘s experience, and I’ve not used this, but what I like about it is that it’s a 50 second fire extinguisher that is the size of a road flare. You can literally put it anywhere.

I also have a small H3R fire extinguisher in the storage bin below the back seat. Two is one, one is none.

Luckily, I've not had to use one yet. I liked the quality, size and price point. My only other choice was:

I've seen those in action...incredible.

These FYRE units look nice, but too $$$. I wonder if they offer financing?

$300-$900?! Are they refillable? I would rather buy four of these Element units and stash them around the Jeep.

This was like $25 from home depot. "Automotive or marine use for liquid, gas, and electrical fires."

Here is what I came up with:

This was like $25 from home depot. "Automotive or marine use for liquid, gas, and electrical fires."

I bought something similar at Walmart for about the same $$. Rated for auto/marine. Not very big and probably wouldn’t stop an engulfed engine bay from burning but figure it’s better than nothing if you have a brake disc catch or get something sitting against the exhaust catch.

Here is what I came up with:

I originally I mounted mine there (rear roll bar) but didn’t like it being out in the open when the top was off so I used a couple of tech screws to mount the holder that came with it to the plastic tray under the rear seat on the drivers side. I figure it may take an extra 1-1.5 seconds to open the back door and flip the seat up but it keeps it out of sight and out of the sun when the top is off yet still close enough to me when driving.

I rarely go full topless so I went for rear driver side roll bar. At a glance it looks weird to get out but I just have to tug on the Velcro straps and it comes out holder and all. I like that it just blends in back there.

Well, this is what I ended up with and doing. Fits good and seems sturdy. I now it is not as easily accessible as one would like but it is quick and easy to get to.
