The newer SRS style belts have small explosive charges that go off to

tensioners>> to which Kaleb replied <<Yes>>
Please explain "Squibs" and how they operate in this situation - the
only squibs I'm familiar with are the explosive charges used in
TV/Movie making to simulate gun shot hits on various surfaces...
;-)
the free dictionary says
"a. A small firecracker.
b. A broken firecracker that burns but does not explode."
Thanks -
