Agree - rate of energy release is everything.
A pound of hamburger releases about 1152 kcal, or about 4.8 megaJoules of energy when metabolized over a day or so after it's eaten.
One pound of TNT releases about 2 megaJoules of energy in a few microseconds when it's detonated.
Big difference in the results. One makes me fat. The other makes me dead.
I'd be worried about a super capacitor that contained a week's worth of my laptop energy, and that might release it in a second.
