What about those small hand held halon extinguishers? I know I don't have room for a regular size extinguisher but it might be an option.

Phil,I don't know how many times you race per seasdon,but there's guys who race a lot.I'm sure they base the need to replace equipment based on the high usage side as opposed to low usage.I'm sure the reasoning is centered on the neck strap,that's secured every run and absorbs sweat.It probably weakens the material.
I could be wrong though.Anyway I'm due for a new helmet next year and I guess I'll
be getting one for Xmas.
