Hmm. What does it taste like?

Good news is modern bombs don't tick, they vibrate. 9 out of 10 times it's an electric razor, but every once in a while...

It is outgassing, I'd guess.

I usually only hear it with a rechargeable battery being recharged quickly. Sometimes sounds like ticking sometimes like sizzling.

Or, I hear it when recharging a battery that isn't supposed to be recharged...
