So now you have a calcium coated led plate left in water for 20 years, but sure! Charge that baby, it'll work!
- That zippo had more than enough spark to ignite all the fuel on the floor of the building the zombies were charging. All she had to do was kneel down and spark it. But instead she made out with a zombie.
- One thing TWD did really well was training the characters to use firearms early on, as it makes total sense. This whole "no guns for Elle" thing is really lame and makes no sense whatsoever. Someone that has never even touched a gun before can get instruction in a couple hours on how to be safe with a gun.

If we're being pedantic then the sparks wouldn't matter as the fuel would have long been rendered inert after sitting in a barrel for 20 years. Also makes the battery issue moot, but sometimes you just have to put physics aside and enjoy the show
