And consider the explosive force stored in a 350-700 bar (your
AI's number) pressure vessel that becomes brittle enough to go "bang".
That's one hell of a bang, even without the hydrogen itself explosively
combusting as part of the pressure release.

I've seen the results of a 200-bar scuba tank letting go.
And that's just a little 80-cubic foot tank filled with air.

 
How did this happen? In sweden, there is an epidemic of bombings for the
past couple of years, since crazy drug dealing arabians are waging some
kind of war with hand grenades, and car battery bombs in the bigger
cities.
 
Would using scuba tanks be a cheaper way for them to bomb each other?

Likely not as cheap as a car battery.  I see a 2.3L mini scuba tank on
Amazon for $299 (no idea how big a 2.3L mini tank really is).  I can
get a car battery for about $100 at the local auto-store.

And the scuba tank will not also spray sulfuric acid over everyone when
it goes "bang".  And short of an armor peircing slug, it is probably
more difficult to get a new scuba tank to go "bang" vs becoming a brief
high speed rocket or spinner.

Also, how does a car battery bomb work?

Perhaps google would answer your question...  Or perhaps google would
report you to the authorities for even asking the question?

I'ev seen videos of exploding lithium batteries, but that does not
look as efficient to me as just producing good, old, gun powder at
home and making your own.
 
So with that in mind, what would be the advantage of a car battery bomb
over regular gun powder plus a pipe?

Lack of education maybe?  They can buy the car battery at an auto parts
store (no education required, just the local currency) and they likely
have a "script" passed down that they have no idea how/why it works,
but if the do x, y, and z, it does work.

Making gunpower does require some knowledge and skill -- although
presumably it too could be scripted.  So perhaps the 'authorities' are
watching the gunpowder precursor purchases, but not watching 'car
battery' purchases?
