Slightly off-topic, but I have to disagree here: Crush a gel cell and very nasty stuff gets splashed around.

A screwdriver causes a puncture. A 120 lb robot at 12 FPS will more likely crush, not puncture. Although unlikely, a worst case could have gelled sulphuric acid squirted over several square yards.
