I've been looking at used "2A" pressurized water extinguishers on eBay. I have one I bought new about 20 years ago and converted to a bug sprayer; think I might get a couple more to use as actual fire extinguishers.

I just found out there is a type of water extinguisher that's rated for electrical fires. It's called a "water mist" 2A:C extinguisher, they're painted white and filled with deionized (distilled) water pressurized with nitrogen instead of air. New ones don't cost that much more than new water stream types, the downside is you can't recharge them yourself.
