Speaking as someone with little to no experience in this area (and hope never to!),

If I decide to plumb in a system, go for Halon then? any ideas about optimal size - as big as can fit or...? (Halon is sold by weight - 3lbs, 5lbs and 10lbs are common, whereas foam is sold by volume 2.25L or 4L)

Halon, Big as you can fit and your budget to stretch to!

In Norway Halon is banned just as in the UK, but the US is buying it up from us so it is reused ;-)
But managed to get hold of a 2 kg, with a glass ampulle on top for auto activation ( 68 degrees ), but also a remote switch so putting a switch in the car. Widely used in enginebays of boats before they where banned.
So need to measure out where to put it so it does not blow.
Also carry a 2.4 liter OMP black edition foam inside the car. I have a 2 kg Halon handheld witch I am considdering putting in front of the drivers side, but need to make up a bracket for it.

What is more enviromental friendly, a Stratos burning up or me putting 4 kg. of Halon out in the air?
Do I care if I save the car, no!

Also, according to my sources, Halon is 5 times more efficient than CO2, so with 4 kg. of Halon on board, I should have the firepower equiviliant to 20 kg of CO2 + the 2.4 liter foam.
Hope I never need them... but the firepower is there....
