Reloading Fire Extinguisher

For anyone getting/using a Halon extinguisher, please remember Halon is an inert gas, containing no oxygen. It works by depriving the fire of O2 and that's what you breath.

i don't think you understand how halon fire extinguishing work its not an oxygen deprivation fire stop, rather it interrupts the chemical process of the fire.
in typical use the percent of it in air is not enough to cause any significant problems to humans (except in an electrical fire)
