Your local fire department will want to very closely inspect your explosive materials handling and safety procedures. Think about what big banks of lead-acid batteries have to do, and google the pictures of battery rooms with their roof blown to bits.

i'm familiar with the destructive power and unpredictable nature of hydrogen detonations, yes ;)

but that's what happens when you don't vent the hydrogen to the atmosphere

Yes, but improperly venting the hydrogen is "not venting hydrogen" but looks like venting the hydrogen unless closely inspected.

you can do it in ways that are really obvious, though only to someone who knows the order of magnitude of hydrogen that could be produced
