Abstract
A fire extinguishing device to reduce or extinguish a fire in a specific localized area such as a room or a hallway within a burning building. A base with a disbursement container fixed to the base is provided to hold an explosive charge and a volume of fire extinguishing agent. When the explosive charge is detonated, the extinguishing agent is forced out of the disbursement container in an upward direction to subsequently shower down upon a fire in the vicinity of the detonated fire extinguishing device to at least in part extinguish the fire in the localized area.
