Description:

DXT-8 is a flexible, adhesive tape designed to stick to most surfaces, allowing it to be placed on walls, hatches, and blast doors. Compact, lightweight, and effective, it is an ideal breaching tool, melting through most light to medium blast doors and armor plating with relative ease and with little to no damage to the surrounding area. It can support a variety of standard, low-yield detonators, but can just as easily be set off with a well-aimed blaster bolt. It is sold in a special, unmarked, thermal-regulating foil wrapping that is easily opened and can be discarded after use.

Ooo, this is some shiny stuff right here.

Approved!

Question, though. (one that Jiang should've asked. >.>)

How does it 'activate'? On contact? kinetic force? shoot it with an energy blaster? detonator?
Otherwise its just gonna blow dafudj out of your pocket when you're carrying it around.

Also, is this like firework sparklers where if you put a lot of it together without access to a healthy supply of air it blows up very violently?

 

[Jiang Winters]

IIRC, almost all det-tapes use a detonator. Most won't bat an eye if you shoot them or set them on fire - they tend to be made with pretty stable explosives. It isn't a question that really needs to be asked tbh.

 

[Cassanova]

Then why'd I have to ask it? ;)

 

[Jiang Winters]

Because you're silly. <3

 

[Cassanova]

:'(

But i don't have any experience with explosives. (not ones that require detonators beyond a match and a kerosene soaked wick).

 

[Dóiteán]

Simple, press button it go boom. :P

 

[Jiang Winters]

I've done a metric ton of research into stuff like this, which is probably why I didn't bat an eye at it. ;-;

It's okay though, I'm sure we can come up with our very own det-tape that we can set off with a match and a wick. <3

I'd suggest a magnesium wick feeding into plastic explosives. Oh, and attach it all to some double-sided masking tape.

It explains the detonation process in the description.
