I disagree on the "it will kill you" statement. According to the MSDS for a Kidde fire extinguisher (and every other MSDS I looked up), it is categorized as irritating or may cause issues after prolonged exposure or prolonged inhalation.

Not saying that the stuff you are talking about is not as good or better and may be less irritating; just that halon is not a deadly poison.
I have worked on circle track cars that have been on fire and had halon systems on board that were definitely saved due to the fire suppression system. A mess I can handle, a crispy Camaro is a bigger issue.
Can you give us some more specific info like an MSDS on the stuff you referred to? If it is really the way to go, I may change my direction on the fire suppression system going in my car soon.
