Venting battery mod

I started thinking... what if it was like a machine gun... holes all the way around. For a battery boxmod, using 2 AA box, you could put 2-3 holes on each side. As long as you keep the same number of holes on each side, the jetting in theory should force *inward* instead of any one direction... and with 8-12 holes, there shouldn't be enough force or flame/gas spewing to do any real damage to the hand, even if being held at the time.

Going to start making my boxmods like that...Will let you know when one blows up what happens. :)

did you see the flames in the video?
and box mods are made of this NONmeltable plastic nowadays. right?

Ever melt something like maybe with a lighter and get the runny, molten plastic on your hand?
Propulsion? did you see the video?
The pack just sort of sat there, see the flame, wow Cool, I'll like flame, OK back on track.
Pile of gunpowder, burn bight
Confine it, boom.
The injuries due to "exploding" and "rocket propelled" e-cigs that I have read about were: atty blown into face (was that atty and connector?) How was atty attached to mod, and how did the mod built up that much pressure? Look at the mod in your hand (if you are vaping a mod) and how much pressure (guess?) would it take to blow the connector (not glued in is it?) out of the mounting and into your face. 100, 200PSI?
5psi?
Screw on endcap blown off and into face breaking teeth. Wonder how much pressure that took, 300, 500psi?
Watch the video, flame and fire mostly. The one pack that was wrapped with tape blew the tape in a flash of light. But the battery pack didn't shoot off toward the horizon. Pressure is bad. Flame is bad.
Roman candle or M80?
