Better hope that this bad boy doesn't have a thermal runaway when you're wearing it..
There's little chance that I would wear it: it keeps making me think of the exploding prisoner collars in that Rutger Hauer movie.
That's the whole reason I want one!
I wonder if I could get little studs or spikes epoxied on? Maybe build in some sort of WiFi detector, since it already has the led's. That settles it, I'm getting one.
OK, who's exporting Blakes 7 VHS tapes to China?
C'mon own up, yes we're looking at you BBC Wales...
You could use them as exercise aids as well. Strap one (or more) to each ankle and wrist, and it'd be just like those old bean-bag weights. Then get a flexible solar panel jogging jacket, and you're good to go.
It reminds me of the battery belt that allowed Abel Ferrara to go on his rampage in Driller Killer.
oh dear god these are lipo batteries...

If this had a somewhat elegant or fashionably utilitarian watch face built in, and a subtle method of in-storing a few of the connectors, it would be a very hot item. In fact, it's worth a hack.
I wonder what the US policy is on reselling batteries? Buy a few of these and voltron them to 80's Casios, paint the whole unit in an understated shade and bingo. Limited edition of 50, 120$ a piece. Hell, go designer and get one of those frilly yoyos to airbrush a skull and a some postmodern crap on it for another two benjies.
