The Li-ION Fire Solution extinguisher is a water type fire extinguisher with the F-500 Encapsulator agent. This has use for extinguishing fires in Lithium ION batteries, such as those in electric vehicles.
Generally, air water extinguishers are not efficacious for electrical fires. The water can conduct electricity which creates an additional hazard.
