Fire Extinguisher (DX)

Fire Extinguishers are items in Deus Ex that emit halon gas, which stun enemies and can be used to bypass some laser tripwires. Multiple fire extinguishers can be carried in the inventory, but they do not stack. 
==Description==
==Use==
The fire extinguisher functions as a one-use version of the pepper gun, since the halon gas that it emits is functionally similar to the tear gas emitted by the pepper gun. However, unlike actual weapons, the fire extinguisher is not affected by any weapon skill. 
Similar to tear gas, halon gas inflicts no actual damage, but causes enemies to be blinded and stunned. Stunned enemies receive 4x the damage that they would otherwise take, except that the multiplier for stealth attacks does not apply to stunned targets. Therefore, the fire extinguisher can be used to stun enemies, disabling them and making them more vulnerable. 
Some laser tripwires can be bypassed by obscuring the laser with a cloud of halon gas from the fire extinguisher. Only laser tripwires set to detect the player or NPCs can be bypassed in this manner. Laser tripwires set to detect all objects will be triggered by gas. There is no way of knowing in advance whether a laser tripwire will be triggered by gas.
