also do not add dish soap to cup of water with output hose making suds to light, or inflate balloons and tape fuse to side and light fuse and release only to float up over neighbours house and explode with a deafening roar, causing them to come tearing out of house running around trying to figure out what the heck that was, or lighting a small "pear sized" balloon filled with hydroxyl while pinned in place with handle of garbage can lid removing the hair from arm clear to the elbow even though using a long campstove lighter, not sure who the guy was that did these things but pretty sure he has a little more respect for the stuff now, hahahahaha

PLEASE NEVER USE GLASS FOR A GENERATOR. If you do get a flashback it will explode & cause the glass to shatter, turning your generator into a lethal grenade. A good way to practice safety is to think of it as a minitature hydrogen bomb in your car. So take all precautions posted here literally.

Also don't light balloon while holding it. Also don't drink while messing with hydro generator. It can cause you to light the balloon while still holding it.  haha

p.s. It can also cause you to light the end of the hose and blowing up the generator.  Don't know what dummy did this stuff either.  haha

Well Drinking and doing dangerous things has never been a smart activity...but even without the drink I was seriously tempted to light the end of the hose to see what it would do... but thankfully I resisted temptation.... glad I did because at the time I had a screw on cap on the generator...
a BIG NO-NO.... now I do not make a container that doesn't have a pop off plug on it... I sware by those things ! I've goofed around and made the pop off caps fly through the air on more than one occasion
but I've never blew up a cell..... Yet!

And Never i Meen Never...... talk your drunk brother inlaw into lighting a liter bottle filled with gas,he might just walk up and use his bic lighter at a very close range to the bottle.....and scare the drunk right out of him.

In-laws are fun.  Everyone should have some for at least a little while.
