A gram of Hydrogen represents the explosive power of about 30 gm of TNT. Several hundred grams of Hydrogen would equate to about 9 kg of TNT. That's a little more than a pop under the hood. (This is because Hydrogen is so light weight. Calculation based on burning the Hydrogen to form water.) Of course, one could also argue that carrying around gallons of gasoline isn't safe.
