Unless I am an idiot, the way to use the thermite charges is to simply take one and click the wall you want to burn away, and it takes 5 second and burns out the wall it was placed on, and a couple adjacent ones.
I was an operative the other night and everyone went in stealthy and left their thermite charges, so I took them intending to make some breaches for easy movement around the secure parts of the station. I used all 5 and didn't burn down a single wall that I applied them to, the fire effects happen, but not on the wall that the charge is placed on.
I wasn't sure what was happening until I tried near the security solar array and the charge was placed in space next to the wall, as it normally is, except it created the thermite fire on the solar panel behind the charge, in the opposite direction of where I wanted it.
