2) If part of the design must focus on the need to smell smoke and react with a fire extinguisher, perhaps the design is a bit lacking and needs to be reconsidered (which is what I suggest).
3) For myself, I would prefer a design with a high confidence of not fizzling or sizzling as I am trying to make a part.
If you try to put a square peg in a round hole, there can be consequences.
The problem of applying anything designed for intermittent use to a continuous or nearly continuous application is hardly non-existent. And it is certainly not one that I needed to invent. It already exists.
