Napalm or thermite, just to be safe

You might be surprised how much thermite won't be impressive here. Napalm sure, sticky fire everywhere. Thermite is hard to put everywhere and really doesn't want to light. Hard enough I'm not sure I have anything in my house that could, although idk how hot a lithium fire gets. Probably not even close.

Just use black copper oxide instead of iron oxide for your thermite then. That'll just spontaneously ignite and explode.
