No I confirm but you have to be ok with the permanent follow on with alarms for temperature check of each battery

Has anyone with LiFEPO4 batteries on board researched the need for specialized fire extinguishers for a battery fire?  Best I can tell is that a class D extinguisher is not necessary as the batteries contain very little Lithium.  So according to what I have found, water or a standard ABC or CO2 extinguisher all work.  Anyone have different information?
