    Sure, it is a great portable power source, but if I light it on fire, is it gonna explode in a giant fireball? Fuel cells do run on hydrogen if I remember.

  4. What about fires? by Max+Romantschuk · · Score: 1, Redundant

    These things run on stuff that burns awfully well... So will it explode and cause more damage in event of a fire?
