Uses ClF3 to combust varous salad vegetables as a stupendously dangerous way of having a novelty lighter.
Small pressurised tank of ClF3, and a tube and indexing wheel for advancing a rod of carrot or cucumber or whatever into the combustion area.
Caution - creates horribly noxious fumes, may blow up for no reason.-- Custardguts, Sep 28 2015 N-Stoff, or Chlorine TriFluoride https://en.wikipedi...hlorine_trifluoridePart of any supervillian's chemistry set. Make sure to read the John Drury Clark quote under the heading Rocket Propellant. Then go out and find a copy of his excellent book "Ignition: An informal history of liquid rocket propellants" [Custardguts, Sep 28 2015] Prior art? Skip to 0:53 if you like. https://www.google....aSTZTcvhyaitgnh_gJgSans ClF3, but not entirely unbaked either. [absterge, Sep 29 2015] Incredibly foolish and ill-advised use of a dangerously reactive oxidising agent.

I first read the description errantly as "This is research".-- absterge, Sep 29 2015 Solid fool lighter.-- MaxwellBuchanan, Sep 29 2015 Where does one buy this stuff... I have a couple of unshiftable stains that might benefit from being ignited.-- bs0u0155, Sep 29 2015 // Where does one buy this stuff. //
That depends ... will Sir be paying cash ? Used notes, non-sequential numbers, nothing bigger than a $50 ...-- 8th of 7, Sep 29 2015 They make notes of less than $50??-- MaxwellBuchanan, Sep 29 2015 Don't forget to eat your vegetables, [absterge]. But I gotta warn you, they carry a powerful punch.-- blissmiss, Sep 29 2015 They make notes bigger than a $50?-- bs0u0155, Sep 29 2015 Pre- or post- ignition? Either way, that would be "research" of the most frightening kind, [bliss], the kind best left to "volunteers".
