I can just picture the dope that tests a singularity grenade. I picture Bugs bunny standing on an assembly line with a big mallet taking a whack at every one that comes along. When they don't go off he marks them as duds.

Is there a technical description of how they work? Maybe you could post it and then we could discuss it based on that.
There are several similar devices scattered around SF, but I do not know how to relate the Gap singularity grenade to any of those.

It's possible Hashi created tiny black holes using a particle accelerator. Quantum physicists have been predicting their existence for years. The only thing is they have an extremely short lifespan. How he'd create larger singularities is beyond me.

Once a man has developed a way to create a sigularity, there will be a hundred men making weapons out of it. That's just the way it is.

Well, that's kind of hard to say seeing as we don't know how to make a singularity yet.

Maybe it's like a large vacuum tube.

I know; but if it were made into a cheesy '50's sci-fi film, it would look like a huge vacuum tube.

Well, I'm trying to, but there's not a lot of base material to work with here. Suffice it to say that none of us can do more than make a vague guess at how they are made. Now, F-bombs are easier to figure out.
