    Does that work with lithium battery fires? The last three spicy pillows I’ve dealt with were Samsung.

      No, ABC extinguishers aren’t good for lithium battery fires. AVC extinguishers are what’s recommended, although type D might work.

      Or you could just drop it in the toilet.

      Lithium battery fires are an exothermic reaction, often times self oxidizing, so typical extinguishers aren’t up for the task.

      I was going to say, its not the Samsung Galaxy Extinguisher, but the Extinguisher for Samsung Galaxy devices. They wanted it handy.
