9 litre LFX Lithium Battery Fire Extinguisher
Choosing a 9-litre LFX Battery Fire Extinguisher is the best choice for tackling fires involving large portable devices, such as e-bikes and e-scooters, which are powered by Lithium-ion batteries. Designed for battery capacities of up to 900Wh, you’ll most likely find these in warehouses, factories and rental operations. It even comes with an impressive fire rating of 34A which allows you to also tackle surrounding items which could go up in flames when a battery explodes, such as cardboard, paper and cloth.

The CommanderEDGE LFX range of extinguishers is water-based and fluorine-free, discharging as foam that quickly absorbs heat. This process effectively breaks the chain reaction leading to thermal runaway, cooling the battery and preventing other cells from overheating.
As one of the first extinguishers to be NTA 8133 approved—the standardized method for testing extinguishers' effectiveness on lithium-ion batteries—the 9-litre lithium battery fire extinguisher also holds the BS EN3 Kitemark, UKCA and CE Mark, MED approval, and comes with a 5-year warranty. Before purchasing, ensure the 900Wh capacity meets your needs by checking the watt-hour rating of your devices.
Suitable for factories, warehouses, rental facilities, and shops, this extinguisher is ideal for environments with large quantities of smaller portable devices or larger battery-powered devices such as e-bikes, e-scooters, and drones.
It can handle Class A fires (wood, paper, cloth, etc.) and lithium-ion battery fires up to 900Wh. Additionally, it is safe if inadvertently sprayed on electrical equipment up to 1000V.
With proper indoor use and maintenance, the extinguisher has an anticipated lifespan of 10 years.
Extinguisher Servicing: Your new 9-litre LFX fire extinguisher will likely need commissioning and annual servicing—a legal requirement for businesses and rental properties and often recommended by insurance companies. We offer commissioning services, with the option of wall fixing, where our local engineer will certify and label the extinguisher before issuing a compliance certificate.
