Fire suppression systems are designed to help the vehicle occupants safely escape and it is only a bonus if it saves the vehicle. The key to an under bonnet fire suppression system is to have operator warning and the immediate shut down of the engine in an attempt to cut fuel supply.

I find the hammer (or should I say glass breaker) on this is not that effective, the knife and webbing blades are excellentI feel another purchase coming. Though I do have a rescue hammer/cutter in every car I don't think I can resist another Swiss
I've cut through wiring looms with the blade.
I am good either way, escaping the vehicle safely is number 1 priority, saving the vehicle is #2.
Absolutely totaled.
I was there recently. In fact my profile pic on this forum is on that Beach.
Definitely not a spinifex/grass fire, photos suggest it to be an engine fire
For my wife it is the only solution. She simply doesn't have the strength to break a glass with anything other than a hammer.

This is what you need then, press the black end to toughened glass and its broken.
Don’t think you can definitively say that. There isn’t spinifex there, but if they have been playing in soft sand in the dunes and beach all day thay could have picked up some grass and dried seaweed etc around the DPF and then if it had decided to do a burn it could look just like an engine fire.
