a bang after you digested it! ;-)

Not particularly. Their fire is exaggerated, but I don't like them
much because of their flavour. Admittedly, the only one I ate raw
I had grown, and UK sun isn't enough to get them to heat up. But I
was given the seeds of 3-4 and the flesh of one by my family (on
pizza). That was as hot as I like.

I never cook with them as they give a perfumed taste to the food which I
don't care for all that much.

It was bloody hot though!

I prefer bog standard green chillies bought from my local Asian shop. Lovely
crisp and crunch and hot.

I grow one every year that I buy from garden centres.
It's called Patio Chilli and it's a beauty anyone know the actual name of
it.

I have a Tepin plant in my greenhouse. Very small fruits with plenty of
power. It's the only chilli that has ever made my brother claim "that's
hot". He did eat two raw though.
