I was burning some trash today and something exploded, making a loud blast. I did not find any aerosol cans. Then I remembered that I tossed a coin cell from my computer in the trash after replacing it. I tell everyone to sort out all the cans, bottles and non-burnables before making a fire but that cell was probably missed. The only other possibility is that a dead disposible cigarette lighter got in the fire, but those normally dont do much (since they are empty). This was a loud blast, even where I was which was several hundred feet away.
