Default RE: LiPo fires and extinquishers

Get a ABC extinguisher..but dont plan on it actually putting out the lipo...But it can prevent other stuff around it from going up in flames.
Fire Extinguishers are powered by CO2 not nitrogen. Mainly because it starves fires of oxygen and is fairly inert.
Once you put out the initial fire....get that lipo somewhere safe....it can restart if it isnt fully consumed.
