When you secretly replace all the customer's regular 0603 resistors with
exploding resistors it's fun for the whole family! Like replacing their
usual coffee crystals with Folger's crystals

I suspect that they take a lot of energy to ignite. Replacing ordinary
resistors would probably have no effect.

There are explosives, probably used in nukes, that are very hard to
detonate. The slapper type igniters are for those.

It's more like secretly replacing their dilithium with Folger's
crystals.

But it's easier to simply put tantalums in backwards like PARC did with
the first Diablos.

Maybe what is used in airbags?
