Hi Kelvin,
I am not aware of Boeings' procedures.
Obviously Halon is perfect for extinguishing but it doesn't cool.
I feel a bit stupid questioning Boeing, but what does Boeing say about cooling?
The whole essence (and unique feature?) of a Lithium battery fire is the thermal runaway. It needs to be cooled. And every consumer should know.

Sorry for the thread drift...
