I can honestly state that a 9vt battery pack for an old Sunpack flash
will set one off.

But it has to be in the pocket of a brand new down filled parka.

ROTFL! So, how much of an explosion did you feel, or did it just
pop and set the jacket on fire as you scrambled out of it? g

Pretty good POP and a snow storm of feathers. Happened while I was
standing talking to my kids princible in the lobby of the school
theater.

It was...interesting.
