You don't have to smother the fire with Halon. A still-breathable Halon mix would work just fine; it chemically stops the combustion reaction, rather than physically blocking the oxygen.

Interesting. I wasn't aware that you could put out fires with breathable levels of Halon...

I have heard there is a problem with Halon. You get it above 1400 degrees farenheit, and it turns to phosgene. Very toxic stuff.
