I've read all the threads on the forums here about fire extinguishers. Right now I have my household dry-chemical extinguisher next to my laser, but I'm going to head out and get a C02 extinguisher for this purpose as I really don't want to be trying to get dry chemical dust out of my extinguisher if I ever need to use it.
My question is, how big of an extinguisher do I need? I'm guessing it won't take much to put out a fire in the laser, but is a 'flue fire' in the exhaust duct a real possability? If so would filling the laser with C02 gass with the exhaust fan on work?
